The video explores the mystery of Moses' staff, which is said to have disappeared after being passed down through the Davidic line. Graham Phillips, a relic hunter, has researched the staff for decades and suggests that a wooden rod in the Birmingham Museum might be Moses' staff. This rod was reportedly found in a tomb at Petra, believed to be Moses' burial site. Although the tomb was empty, a staff matching the description was discovered and later displayed in the museum. The staff bears Egyptian hieroglyphics linking it to Thutmosis, a name similar to Moses, suggesting a possible connection.
