It has a hyperlinked ASV Bible.  I love reading bible stories for their metaphysical interpretations rather than their literal meanings.  I can put myself in any story and learn something about myself and my consciousness when I read the stories metaphysically.  
 
Noah’s Ark symbolizes the spiritual part of oneself, built in the midst of the flood of error.  One builds one’s ark on the scientific understanding of the wisdom, presence, and power of God.  The ark is built upon the affirmations of what one is in Spirit.
 
Noah typifies the consciousness at rest in God.  The 3 sons of Noah represent states of mind.  Shem typifies the spiritual.  Ham typifies the physical, and Japheth typifies the intellect or reason.  
 
Noah took his wife, their sons and their wives, and of every living thing of all flesh, two of every sort “male and female” the positive and negative activities of life in the organism.  One affirms Spirit as in all, as primal essence.
 
Flood- Man, having free choice to open his mind to divine intelligence and KNOW the creative law, or he can work out his character through blind experimentation or reliance on his own understanding.  When we choose the later, we are sure to create error, and we can transgress the divine law to the last limit and a great reaction sets in.  This is “the flood.”  
 
 A spiritual assessment of living through a flood could be judged from our humanity as awful and undesired.  And it can also be seen as an opportunity to inquire and learn claiming “all things work together for good.”  Without the flood, we might not look deeply at those things in our consciousness that are in error.
We have a choice!  There is no judgement either way.  We grow our souls in all experiences.
