  What was the Ark called folks?
The Ark of the "administration of the covenant of grace which is for all men"!!¿  That's how a Covenant Theologian would read this verse.
What was inside the Ark of the Covenant?
A copy of
the "administration of the covenant of grace which is for all men"!!¿  That's how a Covenant Theologian would read this verse.

Who did the LORD make this Covenant with?
Correct answer; with "our fathers" which were those who came out of Egypt and received the Covenant from Mt Sinai.

What was inside the Ark of the Covenant? Answer: The Covenant of Jehovah, which he made with our fathers, when he brought them out of the land of Egypt. See vs 9.
According to verse 9 there was nothing in the Ark but the two tables of stone. And what was on those tables? Answer; The Ten Commandments. According to this verse, 21, what was in the Ark? Answer; The Covenant that Jehovah made with our fathers when He brought them up out of Egypt.

Therefore, The Ten Commandments, which were written on the two tables of stone, which were the 0nly thing that was inside the Ark of the Covenant, is THEE COVENANT that Jehovah made with  ~Israel~ when he brought them out of Egypt. Therefore the Ten Commandments are NOT "for all men in all ages". Such a statement is completely impossible in light of these 2 verses. Anyone who makes such a statement has absolutely no idea what he's talking about and shows his complete ignorance of the Old Covenant. God did NOT cut the Ten Commandment Covenant with Adam or any one else before He brought the children of Israel out of Egypt.
