If by the Menorah and other valuables, did you also mean the Ark of the Covenant and the mercy seat?

When reading this just remember with God all things are possible so if it were God’s Will then somehow, some way...

The Ark of the Covenant isn’t mentioned after the Babylonian sacking of the temple. It is pretty clear that it was NOT in the 2nd temple, so the Romans didn’t know about it at all.

Ditto for the Mercy seat.

In Rabbinic literature, the final disposition of the Ark is disputed. Some rabbis hold that it must have been carried off to Babylon, while others hold that it must have been hidden lest it be carried off into Babylon and never brought back.

2 Maccabees 2:4–10, written around 100 BC, says that the prophet Jeremiah, “being warned by God” before the Babylonian invasion, took the Ark, the Tabernacle, and the Altar of Incense, and buried them in a cave, informing those of his followers who wished to find the place that it should remain unknown “until the time that God should gather His people again together, and receive them unto mercy.
