In the first Book of the Old Testament there is an account of a great flood which covered the entire earth for 40 days and 40 nights. One man , Noah, who was warned by God that the flood was coming. built an ark (boat) and saved his family and the animals . There is a question as to whether it was a historical event, but it is certainly an important part of our culture and there are many literary references to it.
