In

Genesis 8:4Slide2Slide3
Noah an historical figure?
Ark
an historical structure?
Flood
an historical event?Slide4
And just as it happened in the days of
Noah
, so it will be also in the days of the Son of Man: they were eating, they were drinking, they were marrying, they were being given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark,
and
the flood
came and destroyed them all.
Luke 17:26-27

Flood

If Noah, the ark and the flood are all mythological, it is strange that Jesus spoke of them as He did.
Did He know
they were mythological
but tried to make people believe there were not?
Did He think
they were historical matters when in reality they were fairy tales?

Noah in the movieGot his idea for building the ark as a result of drinking an hallucinogenic tea given to him by his grandfather
Methuselah.
Very nearly—with a maniacal look on his face and a crazed tone of voice---carried out his threat to kill his twin granddaughters with a knife held precariously close to their innocent faces. The biblical Noah

Ark
What did the ark look like?
How many square feet?How many animals taken aboard?Big enough to hold all those animals?Slide11
14 Make for yourself an ark of gopher wood; you shall make the ark with rooms, and shall cover it inside and out with pitch. 15
This is how you shall make it: the length of the ark three hundred cubits, its breadth fifty cubits, and its height thirty cubits. 16
You shall make a window for the ark, and finish it to a cubit from the top; and set the door of the ark in the side of it; you shall make it with lower, second, and third decks. Gen. 6:14-16Slide12
450’ long x 75’ wide x 45’ highSlide13
Ark’s estimated capacity is equivalent to 20 standard NBA courts or100,000 square feetSlide14
Could hold 569 railroad stock carsSlide15
19 And of every living thing of all flesh, you shall bring two of every kind into the ark, to keep them alive with you; they shall be male and female. 20
Of the birds
after their kind, and of the animals after their kind, of every creeping thing of the ground after its kind, two of every kind will come to you to keep them alive. 21
As
for you, take for yourself some of all food which is edible, and gather it to yourself; and it shall be for food for you and for them
.
Gen. 6:19-21Slide16
Could an ark of this size hold all those animals, food and people?Slide17
Aquatic creatures didn’t need to go on arkThe adult size of all large creatures (elephants, e.g.) didn’t need to be taken
Estimates range from 2,000 to 35,000 sheep-sized animals needed to be taken aboard, taking up less than half of the space with more than enough room left over for food. Slide18
Flood
Darren Aronofsky
, “Noah” writer and director“It's in Genesis,” he told CNN’s Christiane Amanpour in an interview that aired Tuesday. “Noah is saving the animals; he's not out there saving innocent babies, he's saving the animals, he's saving creation
.
In Genesis 2:15, the first thing that God tells Adam to do is to tend and to keep the garden. It’s right there in Genesis
.”
“
It was very clear to us that there was an environmental message. To pull that message out of it, we think, would have been more of an editing job than just sort of representing what's there
.”Slide19
Flood
Darren Aronofsky
, “Noah” writer and director“It is ‘the first cautionary tale
,’
he told
Amanpour
. “If you are wicked, if you fill the world with wickedness, you will get punished
.”
“And if you look at what's happening right now, the fact that here we are today and that U.N. report came out – you know, it's very powerful
.”
“The water is rising, and we already saw it once,”
Aronofsky
said. “We are living the second chance that was given to Noah
.”

Flood
5 Then the Lord saw that
the wickedness of man was great on the earth, and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually…
11
Now the
earth was corrupt
in the sight of God, and the
earth was filled with violence
. 12 God looked on the earth, and behold,
it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted their way upon the earth
.
13
Then God said to Noah, "The end of all flesh has come before Me; for
the earth is filled with violence
because of them; and behold, I am about to destroy them with the
earth…
17 Behold
, I, even I am bringing the flood of water upon the earth, to destroy all flesh in which is the breath of life, from under heaven; everything that is on the earth shall perish
.
Gen. 6:5, 11-13, 17Slide21
