How do we know Christ fulfills the symbolism of the Ark of the Covenant?

Answered in 1 source

Christ fulfills the symbolism of the Ark as a type of reconciliation, representing His divine and human natures.

In the Old Testament, the Ark of the Covenant was a vital ordinance of divine service, beautifully typifying our Savior. Made of shittim wood and overlaid with pure gold, it represents both the incorruptible humanity and the glorious deity of Christ. Hebrews 10:9 also affirms that the Old Covenant's ordinances have come to their appointed end with the coming of Christ, who alone is our atoning High Priest and Sacrifice. Thus, Christ’s fulfillment of the ark’s symbolism is established through His unique nature and redemptive work.
