Some translations of The Bible into English have translated the word for the Ark of the Covenant as the "covenant box." These translators are trying to make the text meaningful to people who don't see boxes called arks every day. This is a noble effort, but it does introduce some unusual terms, such as this one. The box in question was made by Moses (well, Bezalel and Oholiab), and its manufacture is described in the book of Exodus (around chapter 38 or so).
