According to the story of Noah, the earth was flooded to a depth of several kilometres, certainly enough to cover Mount Ararat (5,137 metres or 16,854 feet high) and presumably enough to cover the Himalayas, so that all humans would be destroyed, other than those on the Ark. This huge volume of water does not presently exist on earth and must have come from somewhere.
The Bible says that it rained for forty days and forty nights. What the ancients did not understand is that for it to rain, water must first of all evaporate from the oceans, so that no matter how long it rains, the total volume of water on earth does not increase and flooding can only be local. The Bible also says (Genesis 7:11) that the fountains of the deep were broken, allowing extra water to well up. Again, the ancients did not realise that no such volume of water ever existed, and that if fountains did well up, the vacuum left behind would have to suck the water back down. The biblical explanations do not accord with science, and we can not know how God flooded the earth. We can only accept that the biblical Flood never really happened.
