MARY THE ARK OF THE NEW COVENANT 2 Samuel 6:9 And David was afraid of the Lord that day; and he said, “How can the ark of the Lord come to me?” Luke 1:43 And why is this granted me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?  2 Samuel 6:14 And David danced before the Lord with all his might; and David was girded with a linen ephod. Luke 1:44 For behold, when the voice of your greeting came to my ears, the babe in my womb leaped for joy. 2 Samuel 6:11 And the ark of the Lord remained in the house of O′bed-e′dom the Gittite three months; and the Lord blessed O′bed-e′dom and all his household. Luke 1:56 And Mary remained with her about three months, and returned to her home. Revelation 11:19-12:1 Then God’s temple in heaven was opened, and the ark of his covenant was seen within his temple; and there were flashes of lightning, loud noises, peals of thunder, an earthquake, and heavy hail. And a great portent appeared in heaven, a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars... Hebrews 9:3-4 Behind the second curtain stood a tent called the Holy of Holies, having the golden altar of incense and the ark of the covenant covered on all sides with gold, which contained a golden urn holding the manna, and Aaron’s rod that budded, and the tables of the covenant... Jesus - the Bread of Life (John 6:48).Jesus - the High Priest (Hebrews 8:1-2), the rod that budded, a rod of iron (Revelation 2:27)Jesus - the fulfillment of the Law, the Tablets of the Covenant (Matthew 5:17). Mary the Mother of Jesus (Matthew 1:18-25; Luke 2:1-7). Therefore, Mary is the Ark of the New Covenant.
