Noah built the ark. He was told by God that there was so much evil in the world that he was going to send a flood. A flood to clear out of all those who weren't living in peace and were doing wrong. God told Noah to take himself, his family and 2 of every species of an animal into his ark, (wooden boat), so that they could survive the flood.

Noah, One of god chosen people.

The English word "ark" is used as a translation for two different Hebrew words: one is the "teivah" (Genesis ch.6), which was built by Noah. The other usage of "ark" is for the "Aron," the Ark of the Covenant (Exodus ch.25), which was made by Bezalel (Exodus ch.37) under the supervision of Moses.

No, Moses did not build the Ark in the biblical story of the Flood, but another biblical tradition is that he constructed the Ark of the Covenant. The Hebrew word we translate as Ark, simply means 'box', a fitting description in both cases.

Whether the Ark of the Covenant ever really existed and, if so, where it is now are questions that have intrigued many over the centuries. The answers to these questions depend, in turn, on how much history there is behind the story of Moses.
