Meditations on the Ark of God (W.C. Reid)Keywords: Ark of the Covenant
Those who have carefully considered the ark of Jehovah have no doubt that it is presented to us in Scripture as a type of our Lord Jesus Christ, the One who, in His Person, is both God and Man. Nearly five hundred years elapsed between the setting ... moreforward of the ark from the mount of God until it reached its resting place in Solomon’s temple, and its movements and vicissitudes are pregnant with meaning regarding the ways of God. As we follow the ark we learn of the faithfulness, longsuffering and goodness of Jehovah towards a disobedient and rebellious people. From this we are able to discern God’s disposition towards us in Christ, all that He is in spite of all that we are, for is it not written, “whatsoever things were written afore-time were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the Scriptures might have hope”? (Rom 15:4).
