Summary

The ark was a type of Christ, and, as such, a token of the presence of God.

Reflection

When Christ is formed in a soul, the law written in the heart, the ark of the covenant settled there, so that it becomes the temple of the Holy Ghost,

there is true satisfaction in that soul.

📚Read Complete Commentary

The ark was a type of Christ, and, as such, a token of the presence of God. That gracious promise, Lo, | am with you alway, even unto the end

of the world, does, in effect, bring the ark into our religious assemblies, if we by faith and prayer plead that promise; and this we should be most earnest for. When Christ is formed in a soul, the law written in the heart, the ark of the covenant settled there, so that it becomes the temple of the Holy Ghost, there is true satisfaction in that soul.
