12 noon Bible Study for all
by Bro. R. Williams
The exact dimensions
of the ark were given.
God was the architect;
Noah was the builder.
The student should notice
every specification men
tioned in Gen. 6:14-16.
Every specification was
literally carried out, not
an item was omitted or
changed. “According to
all that God commanded
him so he did.”
“The ark, which was
divided into three stories,
was 3000 cubits long, 50
cubits broad, and 30
cubits high (or, allowing
21 inches for a cubit, as
Professor Perowne does
in Smith’s “Dictionary of
the Bible,” 525 feel long,
87 feet wide, and 52 feet
high...). Tiele, in his
commentary on Genesis,
has calculated that the
cubic contents were
3,600,000 feet.
In 1609 the Mennonite
P. Jansen, of Hom in
Holland built a vessel af
ter the model of the ark,
and discovered that it
would hold a third more
freight than ships built in
the usual way with the
same number of cubic
feet. The ark was not
built for sailing but for
carrying freight,” Shaff
Herzog Encyclopedia of
Religious Knowledge.
Noah and his wife, his
three sons and their
wives, by the invitation of
Jehovah, were to enter
the ark. Two of every sort
of animals, birds, and
creeping things—all in
whose nostrils was the
breath of life—male and
female were brought into
the ark. As to clean
beasts there was this ex-

Inmates of the ark
ception: seven pairs of all
clean animals were to be
taken into the Ark. Clean
animals were those which
might be used for food
and which might be of
fered in sacrifice. For the
distinctions made in the
law of Moses concerning
clean and unclean
animals see Lev. 11;
Deut. 14:3-20.
The Flood
Skeptics deny the fact
of the flood, and claim it
is only a tradition. They
tell us that all nations
have a tradition of a great
deluge. But the univer
sality of the tradition of a
flood rather proves that
there must have been a
fact out of which these
traditions grew; other
wise, how do you ac
count for the fact that all
nations believe it oc
curred? Who in the
remote past could have
invented such a story and
given it such wide cir
culation? What nations in
the remote past with such
limited communication
with each other, and with
much fighting and enmity
between each other,
would have accepted such
a story invented by one of
another nation? Why
should any one fell that
the story of the flood as
recorded in the Bible is
incredible? Even scien
tists bear witness that the
greater part of the earth
at some former time has
been under water.
“An important con
firmation of the Biblical
record is furnished in the
traditions of other
nations. The most in
teresting of these accoun
ts was found by George
Smith, among the
Church Nov. 13 at 11

Berosus and the Noah of
Genesis. He describes the
godlessness of the world,
the divine command to
build the ark, its con

resting of the ark upon a
mountain, the dispatch of
the birds, including the
raven, etc. In these points
the Chaldean accounts
agrees with the record of
Genesis. But there are
certain differences which
are very suggestive. Like

days and nights—“ The
windows of heaven were
opened,” says the writer.
Os course this is a
figurative expression,
used to indicate the ex
cessive downpour, just as
we speak of a “cloudbur
st.” In addition to this,
"the fountains of the
great deep were broken
up.” The “great deep” is
the ocean, and this ex
pression can mean
nothing more nor less
than that there was a
great upheaval in the
ocean causing its waters
to rush out over the land.
