Frequently Asked Questions

Was the flood a local or global event?+

The Bible describes the flood as a global catastrophe that covered all the high mountains under the heavens and destroyed all life on earth (Genesis 7:19-23). While scholars debate the exact geographical scope in historical terms, the biblical text presents it as a worldwide flood that required Noah's ark to preserve representatives of all living creatures.

How long did it take Noah to build the ark?+

The Bible does not specify exactly how long it took Noah to build the ark. Genesis 6:3 mentions that God gave humanity 120 years, which many interpreters believe was the time period during which Noah built the ark while preaching righteousness (2 Peter 2:5). However, this is not explicitly stated as the construction timeline.

What happened to Noah after the flood?+

After exiting the ark, Noah built an altar and made an offering to the Lord (Genesis 8:20). God then established a covenant with Noah, promising never to destroy the earth with a flood again and blessing him and his sons to repopulate the earth. Noah lived another 350 years after the flood and died at the age of 950 (Genesis 9:28-29).
