Yes. Manna was indeed kept in the Ark of the Covenant at one time.
And Moses said unto Aaron, Take a pot, and put an omer full of manna therein, and lay it up before the LORD, to be kept for your generations. As the LORD commanded Moses, so Aaron laid it up before the Testimony*, to be kept. (Exodus 16:33,34)
"The Testimony" is another name for the Ark of the Covenant, in which the two tablets of stone with the Ten Commandments were "the Testimony". Therefore the Holy Spirit gave these words to Paul:
HEBREWS 9
3 And after the second veil, the Tabernacle which is called the Holiest of all; 4 Which had the golden censer, and the Ark of the Covenant overlaid round about with gold, wherein was the golden pot that had manna, and Aaron's rod that budded, and the tables of the Covenant [the Testimony]; 5 And over it the cherubims of glory shadowing the Mercy Seat; of which we cannot now speak particularly.
Now that you have the Scriptures, are you going to retract your false ideas? (not likely, but we shall wait and see).
Got a question....all things in perspective and put in motion. Was the Ark a storage place for manna?...or... something about the golden pot and the manna that was symbolic of something?
