ark aron kodesh - What will happen if the Ark of the Covenant is discovered today?


I read this question and the answer says that the Ark of the Covenant was buried somewhere beneath Jerusalem during the First Temple period (~580 BC), to hide it from the Babylonian invaders. It seems no one has discovered it yet since that time.


What will be the reaction of Jewish people if the Ark of the Covenant is discovered today? Objectively speaking, have any rabbinic authorities discussed what the consequences might be? Would it be a good thing? What would they do with it? Would they reinsitute the old practices of the Tabernacle System?
