This hypothesis is offered as a "guideline" for constructing an "operational" "ark of the covenant":

• "Cherubim" or "seraphim" may or may not be "gilded" or "plated" or "made" of or "contain":
• Electrum.
• Gold.
• Silver.
• "Cherubim" or "seraphim" may or may not be "mirror images" of one another or have different positions or orientations.
• The "stone tablets" may or may not be of or contain:
• Iron.
• Iron oxide.
• Magnetite.
• That an individual "lost their life" in touching such an apparatus may be accidentally or intentionally "backward":
• "Charging" or "winding it up" may or may not involve one or more individuals "touching it" or walking around it.
• Relating an incident "backward" may or may not provide a "misdirection" or "security through obscurity".

The "angels" or "tablets" may or may not be described backward.

Whether the hypothesis has any accuracy or precision is nothing more than a "guess".

Physics has no issues with the principles or technology.
