The Bible does not say who the last person was to see the Ark of the covenant or where it is, but extra-biblical sources say faithful priests removed it from the Temple at Jerusalem in Manasseh's reign to prevent its destruction. It then temporarily went to different locations, but is now believed to be in Ethiopia, and they will give it back to the Messiah when he returns. If so, the last person to see it would be the current ethiopian 'Keeper Of The Ark' .
