The Resting Ark, The Grounded Fish, and the Empty Tomb
Morris, HM. 1986.  Impact 153:i-iv. CELD ID 3034

Abstract
"And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, upon the mountains of Ararat" (Genesis 8:4). "And the Lord spake unto the fish, and it vomited out Jonah upon the dry land" (Jonah 2:10). "He is not here: for He is risen, as He said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay" (Matthew 28:6). These three verses of Scripture speak of three great events of history, widely separated from each other in time, but each involving a mighty miracle. Each testifies of God's creative power, as well as His judgment on sin and His grace in salvation. The accounts tell of three remarkable specially prepared--yet temporary--domiciles, and the amazing experiences of their occupants. Each record has been bitterly attacked by unbelieving skeptics, but the accounts are true and the events were real.
