    1Pe 3:20 Which sometime were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing, wherein eight souls were saved by water

    Hebrew 11:7 By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; by the which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is by faith

    Searches have concentrated on Mount Ararat itself although Genesis actually refers only to the "mountains of Ararat"

    Mount Ararat a snowcapped dormant volcanic cone has been searched for remains of Noah's ark. Where Noah's ark came to rest after the great flood.

    Gen 6:14 states that Noah built the Ark of gopher wood, a word not known in the Bible or in Hebrew, a mistaken transcription of the word kopher means (pitch)

    Construction of the Ark The Ark is described as 300 cubits long, the cubit being a unit of measurement from elbow to outstretched fingertip

    The water was freezing and the rain poured down ice cold during the Flood

    The Great Flood

    40 days and 40 nights of cold rain

    Noah and his family and the animals entered the Ark, and "the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened, and the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights." The flood covered even the highest mountains to a depth of more than twenty feet, and all creatures on Earth died, only Noah and those with him on the Ark were left alive

    the present population of the world was descended from Noah's three sons and their wives

    Sumerian Flood Tablet

    Sumerian Flood tablet

    in the LAST DAYS there will be Scoffers

    Luke 17:26  as it was in the days of Noah so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man.
     

    Luke 17:27  They did eat they drank they married wives they were given in marriage until the day that Noah entered into the ark and the flood came and destroyed them all

    the Ark constitutes the one remaining major link to the pre-flood World

    Noah's Ark The Ark would have had a gross volume of about 1.5 million cubic feet, a displacement less than half that of the Titanic at  22,000 tons, and total floor space of around 100,000 square feet

    the first historical mention of rains in the Bible lasting 40 days from the "floodgates of the heavens" waters from the "springs of the great deep"
