Noah's Ark
Noah's Ark is a vessel describes in Genesis chapters 6-9 of the Hebrew Bible. In the story, God instructs a man named Noah to build an ark to providing a save-haven for Noah, his family, and all species of animals. Once Noah and his fellow travelers are aboard the ark, God enacts a massive flood, destroying all other living things on the planet. The inhabitants of the ark go on to repopulate the world after the great flood.

Does trivial pursuit have a bible edition?
Yes. There are Trivial Pursuits for almost every subject including the bible.
Did God destroy the earth if yes how did He then recreate it?
He destroyed it by the flood during Noahs days, but the fanily and the animals were on the ark to continue life.
How much time did Noah spend in the Ark?
There are two answers to this question, we can also find that one story has the flood subsiding in just forty days, while the other says that the waters prevailed upon the earth one hundred and fifty days beforethey began to recede. In one case, he was on the Ark for perhaps 80 days, in the other for an entire year.
In the same way, Genesis 6:19-20 says that Noah is told to take two of every animal onto the Ark, clean or unclean, but in Genesis 7:1 he is told to take two of every unclean animal, but seven of every clean animal. The reason for this surprising find is that there are actually two stories of Noah's Ark in the Bible, written by two different authors and cleverly interleaved so that the result appears to be just one, rather complicated story.
We do not know the names of the two different authors of the biblical stories of Noah, and they are now called the Priestly Source and the Yahwist:
- The Flood verses attributed to the Priestly author are: Genesis 6:9-22, 7:6, 7:8-9, 7:11, 7:13-16a, 7:18-21, 7:24, 8:1-2a, 8:3b-5, 8:7, 8:13a, 8:14-19, 9:1-17.
- The verses attributed to the Yahwist are: Genesis 6:5-8, 7:1-5, 7:7, 7:10, 7:12, 7:16b-17, 7:22-23, 8:2b-3a, 8:6, 8:8-12, 8:13b, 8:20-22.
Has anyone seen Kendall Schmidt nude?
Well is parents, probably Kevin and kenneth and well his sexual intercourse partners.
Where did Ham Shem and Jepheth live after the flood?
NO one actually knows. However, you can bet that they began to build houses and whatnot. Then they would of gotten busy, if you know what I mean, and started to have a lot of children. They would have had it pretty tough with everything being so wet, and having to control all the animals, because they wouldn't of gone straight away and fled to the corners of the earth, they would have stuck around a bit. I think.
Biblically, there were none but Noah and his family worthy of being saved. However, most historians agree that the flood story is derived from a similar Sumarian flood story known as the Epic of Gilgamesh.
What archaeologist discovered evidence of a great flood?
The great flood that likely led to the Near Eastern flood myths such as the biblical flood of Noah's Ark and the great flood of the Epic of Gilgamesh, is believed to be the inundation of the low-lying, fertile plains that became the Black Sea when the Mediterranean Sea breached the Bosporus in approximately 5600 BCE.
No one archaeologist can be given full credit for this discovery, because clues accumulated until various scientists began to take the Black Sea seriously as the origin of the biblical Flood story. They include Rick Fairbanks, Mellaart, David Ross, Egon Degen, Bob Karlin and a joint Russian-American expedition.
Which one of Noah's sons disgraced him received a curse from Noah?
Ham disgraced Noah and was cursed for it. The account is in Genesis 9:20-27.
Did all the animals go onto Noah Ark in pairs?
There were pairs (male and female) of either two or seven of each kind on the ark. The Bible says they entered the ark in twos. Many aquatic animals would not have needed to enter the ark at all.
Why was a steering device unnecessary on Noah's Ark?
Whether or not a steering device was employed on the Ark is not spoken to in the Bible. After reading the account, the reader soon realizes that the Ark was basically a physical 'refuge' for the air breathing life selected by God to soon start anew upon the slowly residing water levels. It was basically a stable holding bin for said life under the full guidance and protection of God for His purposes.
How old was Noah when he built the ark?
Noah was 600 years old when the flood started (Genesis 7:6), and we also know that he already had his sons (he had them after turning 500 - Genesis 5:32) when God spoke to him (God mentions his taking his wife, sons and daughter-in-laws with him, when He tells of His plan with the ark - Genesis 6:18).
So when he built the ark he was somewhere between 500 and 600 years old, give or take some years, as his sons were already married; it really depends on when God came to him and how long it took to build the boat.
Are we all decendants of Noah?
Am not Yes. When God made the flood, everyone but Noah and his family perished. You'd have to be a decendant of Noah because there was no one else left in the world.
Where is the Ark of God at this time?
As of my last knowledge update in October 2023, the location of the Ark of the Covenant, often referred to as the Ark of God, remains unknown. Historical and biblical accounts suggest that it was housed in the First Temple in Jerusalem until its destruction, after which it disappeared from the record. Many theories and legends exist about its potential whereabouts, but no definitive evidence has been found to confirm its location.
What did the last bird bring back to Noah?
In the story of Noah's Ark, Noah sent out a dove 3 times, after unsuccessfully trying to send out a raven, which stayed near the Ark.
The first time the dove returned with nothing, so Noah knew that there had been nowhere for it to land.
Seven days later, he sent the dove out again, and it returned with an olive branch, so he knew that the water had receded from Ararat.
He waited another seven days and sent the dove out again, but this time it did not return; so you could say that the Answer is it brought nothing (other than implicit information; namely that it would soon be feasible for Noah to begin resettling the Earth).
But the last time it returned to Noah, it brought an olive branch, so that could also be the answer.
It depends on how the question is worded.
When was the next rain after noahs flood?
The next rain after Noah's flood was when Moses parted the water of the red sea. This was a long while after the rains from Noah's Ark and everything they dealt with.
What animals did god tell noah to put on the ark?
2 of every unclean animal that had breath in its nostrils and 7 of every clean animal.
Other than Noah's family Were there other survivors of the great Flood?
The Torah implies that there were not (Genesis ch.7).
Because it was an actual event, there are records of the Flood in tens of ancient nations all over the Earth, just as there are of the Creation.
