Man's plans and God's plans seldom match up. Example: man wants to rebuild the original temple on the original site. One problem, something is occupying that location, only the second holiest site in the Muslim faith (Dome of the Rock).

By using the fog of war, a top secret plan of the Israeli government can have this problem removed. Plus give them the ordained right to reconstruct the temple.

Before this plan can be put in to action, several things need to line up. First, the temple cannot be constructed until the priesthood has been established. This would require someone to be selected as a high priest. Second, a large amount of gold will be required to reconstruct all the furnishings required to be placed in the temple. This amount is so far above what the Israeli government has. Third, will the construction of the temple be justification to start a third world war?

The most important piece of all, to make the temple real, it needs to have the real Ark. Not just a wooden box resembling the description of the Ark. But it must be able to display the power that only the Ark can produce.

The ending of the first book, the temple is built and the Ark is placed back in the Holy of Holies.

But now God's plan as a few changes to make. "Return to My Mountain" is the command that the angel Metatron gives to the high priest. To return the Ark back to the sacred mountain in man's mind is a simple command. Now the rest the story, he must also bring twelve leaders of the major religions back to the mountain.

Here, God will give them new and final laws to live by.
