The ark on this site is first of all Noah's ship, the vessel that carries a family and the animals through the flood, and the same story returns in Mesopotamia, Hawaii, Mexico and the channeled accounts of Atlantis.
The other ark, the chest of the covenant, has its own page.
These are the pages where the ark appears.
Make thee an ark of gopher wood; rooms shalt thou make in the ark, and shalt pitch it within and without with pitch.
On The Blueprint of the Ark I go through those measurements one by one: the unknown gopher wood, the pitch inside and out, and the 5:3 ratio I compare with the proportions of the pyramids.
The proportions of the fastest sailing-vessels of the present day are about 300 feet long to 50 wide and 30 high; these were precisely the proportions of Noah's ark--300 cubits long, 50 broad, and 30 high.

For every page I tagged with Ark, see the Ark tag archive.
Near the end I compare the story with other warners and ark-builders on this website.
Hebrews 11 is also the chapter that names Noah, warned of things not yet seen, building an ark.
Among the Mandan Indians we not only find flood legends, but, more remarkable still, we find an image of the ark preserved from generation to generation, and a religious ceremony performed which refers plainly to the destruction of Atlantis, and to the arrival of one of those who escaped from the Flood, bringing the dreadful tidings of the disaster.
This is a representation of the ark; the ancient Jews venerated a similar image, and some of the ancient Greek States followed in processions a model of the ark of Deucalion.
On page 158 of the first volume of the same work Catlin describes the great annual mysteries and religious ceremonials of which this image of the ark was the centre.
He then describes a dance by twelve men around the ark: “They arrange themselves according to the four cardinal points; two are painted perfectly black, two are vermilion color, some were painted partially white.
Here we have the image of the ark; here we have a white man coming with the news that “the waters had overflowed the land,” and that all the people were destroyed except himself; here we have the sacrifice to appease the spirit that caused the Flood, just as we find the Flood terminating, in the Hebrew, Chaldean, and Central American legends, with a sacrifice.
Question: Who gave him the instructions to build the ark?
One of those treasures is the ark of the covenant and inside the ark of the covenant are the ten commandments.

are candles all in place, just waiting to be lighted by the flaming torch of love.18. And when you see the candles all aflame, just look, and you will see, with eyes of soul, the waters of the fount of wisdom rushing on; and you may drink, and there abide.19. And then the curtains part, and you are in the Holiest of All, where rests the Arc of God, whose covering is the Mercy Seat.20. Fear not to lift the sacred board; the Tables of the Law are in the Ark concealed.21. Take them and read them well; for they contain all precepts and commands that men will ever need.22. And in the Ark, the magic wand of prophecy lies waiting for your hand; it is the key to all the hidden meanings of the present, future, past.23. And then, behold, the manna there, the hidden bread of life; and he who eats shall never die.24. The cherubim have guarded well for every soul this treasure box, and whosoever will enter in and find his own.25. Now Kaspar heard the Hebrew master speak and he exclaimed, Behold, the wisdom of the gods has come to men!26.

The people ate, they drank,were filled with merriment and sang for joy,13. And did not know their doom until the ark was done and Noah entered in; but then the flood came on and swept them all away.14. So, also, in the days of Lot; the people ate and drank; they bought, they sold, they planted and they reaped, they went their ways in sin, and they cared not;15. But when the righteous Lot went from their city's gates the earth beneath the city shook, and brimstone fires fell from heaven;16. The gapping jaws of earth flew wide, and swallowed up their homes, their wealth, and they went down to rise no more.17. So shall it be when comes the son of man in power.18. I charge you men, as I will charge men then, Seek not to save your wealth, or you will lose your lives.
The ark of Bon
By Prometheus’s advice, Deucalion built an ark, and putting in it provisions, he embarked in it with Pyrrha.
Deucalion, floating in the ark over the sea for nine days and nights, drifted to Parnassus, and there, when the rain ceased, he disembarked and sacrificed to Zeus Phyxius.
"When the dark cloud of the flood covered the earth, Deucalion and Pyrrha, leaving their ark, built their home on the heights of Parnassus.
"The Ark is a device that was mostly a communication device...
The Ark of the Covenant was a communication and energy-channeling device from an extraterrestrial society, misinterpreted as divine.
The Ark of the Covenant and the coffer in the Great Pyramid share similar energetic ratios, though not identical dimensions.
The Ark functioned as a step-down transformer for energy, used for communication, energy release, and creating specific vibrational states.
"In Atlantean times, the vibrational resonances that existed in the ark were used for the propagation of light and energy."
In Atlantis, vibrational resonances similar to those of the Ark were used for light and energy propagation, often tied to crystal technology.
He treats the Ark of the Covenant, the kavod and the ruach as objects that read like technology.
He also tells how the Ethiopian claim to hold the Ark pulled him out of journalism and into the ancient past.
He reads the Ark, the kavod and the ruach as technology, and calls the Shamir too unclear to explain.
The Ark of the Covenant
Hancock describes his first reaction to the Ark of the Covenant, from his years as a journalist in Ethiopia.
2800 BC: Mesopotamia; The Flood and Noah's Ark
2800 Andre Parrot in his 1954 book "The Flood and Noah"s Ark" indicates significant flood deposits at Kish, Shuurupak, Uruk, and Lagash centering on about 2800 B.C.
7:45 - What is the Ark of the Covenant?
The Ark of the Covenant is a significant object mentioned in the Bible.
The Bible's narrative, particularly the parts written by Moses, includes the Ark of the Covenant.
11:57 - Ark of the Covenant:
Construction: The Ark of the Covenant was a box made of acacia wood, covered with gold, and adorned with two cherubim.
The Ark of the Covenant, constructed to specific dimensions, was carried by priests from the tribe of Levi and was used during their journey.
17:52 - Significance of the Ark:
Speculation: Some believe the Ark was linked to the Great Pyramid's power, fitting perfectly into the sarcophagus in the King's Chamber.
The Ark was seen as a conductor of divine energy.
Symbolism: The cherubim on the Ark had four faces: a man (Aquarius), a bull (Taurus), a lion (Leo), and an eagle (Scorpio).
The pyramid and the Ark's dimensions indicate a sophisticated knowledge of celestial cycles.
The Ark’s 5:3 ratio, in particular, ties it to the pyramids’ musical and harmonic framework, suggesting both structures may draw from a universal tradition of sacred proportions, possibly linked to an ancient, shared knowledge base.
Closest functional parallel to the ark, seen as an energetic sanctuary.
The ark’s form matches that of sacred temples, not seaworthy craft.
The flood = destruction of a frequency band; ark = carrier of memory, form, and law.
Unlike the biblical account, which emphasizes a single ark with animals and Noah's family, Oahspe's version focuses on saving the I'hins and righteous mortals under angelic direction, with less emphasis on a literal single boat carrying paired animals.
Similarities: Both feature a righteous figure named Noe/Noah, divine warning, construction of an ark/arc to survive a flood caused by human corruption, and the restart of civilization with preserved divine teachings.
They were governed by community fathers and worshiped the Great Spirit, Jehovih (E-O-Ih).Excerpt: “In the time of Moses, the people of Arabin’ya worshiped many Gods and Lords… When the Israelites traveled forth amidst the different tribes, they were beset to know what Lord or what God they worshiped… The Light in wisdom and words came to Moses to say to the nations, ALAS, HIS NAME, WHOM WE WORSHIP, MAN DARE NOT UTTER.”Excerpt: “The ark of Bon… reached the earth to Moses and his people, in a pillar of cloud by day and of light by night.”
Exodus and wilderness events: Both describe the Israelites' departure from Egypt under Moses, guidance by a divine presence (pillar of cloud/fire in Bible; ark of Bon in Oahspe), and hardships like the quail incident causing mass death (Numbers 11:31–35 matches the Kibrath-Hattaavah event).
The Ark of the Covenant, built later during wandering (Moses made the exterior; others added the energy source), served as a channel to Yahweh, held laws and secrets, and carried immense power.
Even though I did not understand what was so obvious and simple to him, I proceeded to another mystery connected with Moses: The Ark of the Covenant.
S: It is the ark of Moses' covenant with God, yes.
The Levi keep the secrets of the Ark.
D: Where is the ark now?
And the ark was again put in hiding many times.
D: Can the ark be destroyed?
D: I've always heard that the ark is dangerous.
D : Do you think the Ark of the Covenant had something to do with their ability to cross the Red Sea?
S: The ark was not there.
But, nor does it sound like the God that I know of, to slay all the men upon the face of the earth, as He did when He spoke to Noah and told him to build the great ark.

The proposal adds that the Ark of the Covenant, once a sign of divine presence, slowly lost its central place, and that the Elohim became distant gods instead of active rulers.
The physical manifestation of divine power (e.g., through the Ark, theophanies, miracles) had become less immediate or less visible.
In earlier texts (e.g., Judges, Exodus), the Ark of the Covenant represented the physical presence of YHWH.
In 1 Samuel 4, the Ark is captured by the Philistines, and "the glory has departed from Israel" (1 Samuel 4:21).
Science can see it in the strata, and it has even been associated with the mythology of a great worldwide flood and an ark.
