Parallels of the Ark: How Noah’s Journey Symbolizes Jesus

By Megan Alexander Have you ever wondered why Noah and his family were the only
one’s saved by the flood? The Ark Encounter in Williamstown, KY provides a way
for you and your family to experience this Old Testament account of Noah’s Ark.
When I took my family to Ark Encounter three years ago, I was surprised to
realize there are many elements of the account of Noah that symbolize Jesus’s
life. And some may surprise you! The Ark Encounter theme park opened in 2016 and
features a life-size replica of Noah’s Ark, the giant ship that Noah built as
recorded in the book of Genesis in the Bible. When my family and I pulled up to
see and experience the Ark, looking at it for the first time literally took my
breath away. It is hours of fun and adventure for the whole family. My boys were
ages 6 and 10 when we visited, and they loved walking in and checking out all
that is inside. It’s a masterpiece to behold – a delight for all the senses.

But beyond the adventure and amazement, I was very inspired by the biblical and
theological insights to glean from the Ark. For example, there are many
parallels between Noah and Jesus. Just as Noah and his family went through the
one door of the ark to be saved from the flood, Jesus is the door to salvation
for the Christian believer. When you visit the Ark, as you walk on the second
deck, you will walk past one side featuring a giant door.

And looking up, there is actually a cross illuminated on the door. Because of
Noah and his three sons, the human race was saved. Likewise, Jesus death and
resurrection grants us the gift of eternal life in Heaven. Another interesting
piece of information that my family and I gleaned from our trip to the Ark was
that Noah was a carpenter. He built this gigantic boat himself! He was very
skilled with wood and carpentry. Likewise, Jesus was trained as a carpenter from
his earthly Father, Joseph. Walking around the ark, you will see many different
displays of Noah’s carpentry and woodwork. There are many more spiritual
insights to observe and take in while you visit the Ark. And when it’s time for
your kids to burn off some steam, the park features ziplines and plenty of
animals to interact with at the Ararat Ridge Zoo. We took our first camel ride
together as a family! You can also enjoy interactive moments with animals of
many kinds, and presenters to guide your tour of the Ark. Plus, when it’s time
to eat, you can dine at one of the largest restaurants in the country and the
there is something for everyone. Today, millions of people and their children
have an experience to help bring their Faith to life. This is such a gift as a
believer, and one that has greatly impacted my family. When my boys hear the
account of Noah in Sunday School, they excitedly raise their hand and share
about their Ark Encounter journey with their class. I am so grateful this
experience is available to all of us, and I encourage you to travel and see it
for yourself – you will not be disappointed!
