Is there a biblical character with a similar storyline to Hiram Abiff in Masonry?

In early Masonic manuscript traditions, such as the Graham Manuscript of 1726, a narrative parallel to the Hiram legend features the biblical patriarch Noah, whose sons attempt to raise his body from the grave to discover a lost secret or virtue, as a paper read before Quatuor Coronati Lodge notes.

In allegorical and philosophical interpretations of Craft symbolism, writers have also drawn parallels to Jesus Christ. Wilmshurst interprets Hiram Abiff as personifying the Christ-principle immanent within the human soul, describing him as being symbolically buried or latent within human nature until awakened through spiritual regeneration 1.
