• These verses are generally understood to describe the flood experienced by Noah.
• The effects of a worldwide flood could have caused the climate Job lived in to be altered.

• Job may have lived during an “ice age” and perhaps within 500 or so years of the Genesis flood.
• Job 38:29-30 – READ
  1. Job was familiar with ice and frost.
  2. He spoke about the “surface of water” freezing.

THE ARK

• Dimensions for the ark are provided in Gen. 6:14-16.
  1. The dimensions used by Noah (early in man’s history) are nautically sound.
  2. The estimate cargo space on Noah’s ark was close to 3 million cubic feet.

1. 60% of all known living creatures are in the water.
2. 95% of our fossils (many of which go back to the flood) are marine creatures.
3. Of the 40% of the creatures which live on land, 70 out of 100 are insects.

• John Woodmorappe wrote a book (Noah’s Ark: A Feasibility Study).
• At most, 16,000 animals were involved with the ark. Other estimates suggest 35,000.
• If the described animals were really all on the ark, how did Noah collect them? Gen. 6:20

• Where did water come from?
• There was room for cisterns.
  1. The Chinese have used bamboo for pipes for thousands of years.
     1. How did everyone breathe (the window in the ark could have met this need).
