Forty days (4x10) concerns with man who is entrusted with the Word of God. In the case of Moses, it was to confirm the covenant as with Abraham before him to bless the nation that had the Law. He was called up the mount on the seventh day "and Moses was in the mount forty days and forty nights."(Ex.24:16-18) The same everlasting covenant and we have Abraham's faith and Moses was to instruct the nation of Israel to make the word of God to their profit. We see forty days in the case of the risen Christ. The same that covered the glory that "abode upon mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it six days: and the seventh day he called unto Moses out of the midst of the cloud,"is Person specific. What occurred on the mount of transfiguration has the mount as an emblem, and Moses Elias representing the cloud of witnesses. (Matt.17:1-6). The disciples were witness to this glorious body of Christ. Once again as with Moses this occurring before Ascension has to do with the kingdom of God. "being seen of them forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God" Jesus Christ was equipping them for the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. (Ac.1:2-3)
"And it came to pass at the end of forty days, that Noah opened the window of the ark which he had made."(v.6)
The window of the ark represents heart in line of vision with the shadow of the Almighty. (Ps.91:1). Raven is considered 'unclean' and it represent our body of flesh and blood. Being included in the Ark, they are sanctified to serve the Lord God which we see in the story of ravens feeding Prophet Elijah. "And he sent forth a raven, which went forth to and fro." The dove represents the world of the Spirit. "Also he sent forth a dove from him, to see if the waters were abated from off the face of the ground;" We have a series of sevens which marks fulness of time. 'The olive leaf pluckt off' refers to' evening' and the end times. v.11
