Many stories in the Bible are widely circulated, the most fascinating of which is that Noah built an ark and then saved people and animals from disasters. It is said that Adam and Eve ate the forbidden fruit, angered God and were driven out of the Garden of Eden. So two people gave birth to children on the earth and gave birth to many children. These children are all independent when they grow up and live their own lives. As time goes on, their descendants become more and more spread all over the earth. However, the more people there are, the more complicated the world is, and intrigue and intrigue are more common, which angered God. He even regretted that he had created mankind, so he wanted to destroy mankind and all living things on earth.
Of all the people, only Noah was loved by God. God thinks he keeps his duty and never makes mistakes. Under his education, his three sons did not go with the flow and were morally corrupt. So God told him that there would be a big flood on the earth and all mankind would die from this disaster. I miss the kindness of your family. To build an escape ark.
This is a matter of life and death. Of course, Noah didn't dare to neglect it, so he worked day and night and spent 120 years building a huge ark. According to records, the Ark is made of Gefei wood, with a length of 300 cubits (1 cubit is 0.44m), a width of 50 cubits and a height of 30 cubits, and is divided into upper, middle and lower floors. According to the Bible, it is square in shape, like a box, with a displacement equivalent to 43,000 tons of ships. Besides Noah, his wife, three sons and daughter-in-law, there are seven pairs of pure animals, one pair of impure animals and seven pairs of birds permitted by God.
When everything is ready, the springs at the bottom of the sea and the sluices in the sky are all cracked, the heavens and the earth change color, thunder and lightning, huge water columns are ejected from the sky and the ground, the world becomes a Wang Yang, and all creatures breathing by lungs suddenly disappear. The ark carries the hope of mankind and sails in the wind and rain. After 40 days, the heavy rain stopped. Noah looked out of the window. There is water everywhere, but no land. They had to keep sailing until the flood subsided. 220 days later, the ark arrived near Mount Ararat (also known as Mount Ararat and Mount Ale, located near the northeast border of Erd Province). Because the mountain is more than 5000 meters above sea level, Noah decided to stop here. After another 40 days, the flood gradually receded and Mount Ararat finally emerged from the top of the mountain. Noah controlled the ark and anchored on this mountain. After 40 days on the mountain, Noah released a crow to check whether the flood on the ground had receded. He never imagined that the crow would never fly back after going out. Noah had to let the pigeons out again. Before long, the dove flew back with an olive branch in her mouth. When Noah saw that the flood on the ground had receded, he released all the people and livestock in the ark and went back to the ground to rebuild his home. At this time, God came to warn them that this disaster is a warning. You should thrive and don't regenerate evil thoughts.
This is the legend of Noah's Ark in Genesis. If the legend in the Bible is true, then the ark should be on Mount Ararat. But legends are legends after all, and even if they really exist, they will deviate from the facts. Take the film and television dramas with historical themes as an example. Although they claim to be consistent with history, there are countless deviations. In fact, myths and legends are even more unreliable than TV dramas, but there are still many ark fans who are eager to find the legendary Noah's Ark.
