The Flood and Noah's Rest []

  • OT Recapitulation: After the floodwaters receded, Noah's ark rested on Mount Ararat ± Genesis 8:4. This rest signifies the completion of God's judgment and the start of a new creation, as the earth was cleansed and renewed.
  • Clarification in Christ: Jesus calms the storm, bringing peace ± Mark 4:39, and ultimately provides rest from judgment through His sacrifice ± Romans 5:9.
  • Speaking to Us: God calls us to rest in Christ, the ark of salvation, through faith ± Hebrews 11:7.
