    Noah and the flood is one of the most popular myth ever known to mankind. Many people believe the event did happen, and others need proof of its existence. The story says that Noah was a righteous man, and he found grace in God’s eyes. According to the Christian Bible, Noah walked with God (Gen 6:9) all the days of his life. However, Noah lived at a time when the people were evil and did not believe in God. For that reason, God said, “The end of all flesh is come before me; for the earth is filled with violence through them; and, behold, I will destroy them with the earth. (Genesis 6:13). Because Noah was blameless and right in God’s eyes, he commanded him to build a wooden arc to take his family and two animals per each kind. Noah is credited…

    While the story and the contents of the film stays true to the Old Testaments of the Bible, it seems like the story takes place in a distant future after a global post-nuclear disaster, unlike in the Bible, in which the story did took place in the distant past during a time when modern civilizations first occurred. The story begins with the story of creation, where Adam and Eve made wrong choices and rebelled against the creator, and since then the world has been fallen and sinful. Corrupt with man’s destructive advances. The creation needs to be saved and be safe from the destructive works of mankind. The story is of the Biblical character Noah, the son of Lamech and the grandson of Methuselah, who has been given a task by God to save creation by means of creating an ark, and rescuing pairs of living species, before God destroys the world by means of a world-wide flood. Noah faces the overwhelming task of building the wooden ark and getting the living species on the arc with the help of “watchers”, who are in fact fallen angels, which fell from Heaven. But Noah is walking on a rocky road as he has many enemies, including Tubal-Cain, one of his distant relatives, who later strives to take over his ark and kill Noah and his family. Noah is torn between his duties as being a family patriarch, to protect his family, build the arc and defend all the creation, or cater to his son Ham’s need of finding a wife. With all that taking place, the time is short as God’s wrath is about to be unleashed on the earth. Going through all the hurdles, Noah manages to fulfill the commandments of God, and builds an arc for the salvation of creation.…

    The Great Deluge

    Basically the story tells of a man, Noah, who was the most righteous man living at a time shortly after the dawn of man. Man had become so wicked that God wanted to destroy everything he had created. But because Noah was righteous, he would save Noah. So he told Noah to build an ark, in which he and his family would live with a number of animals representing all the animals of the world. While living in the ark, God would make it rain for 40 days and 40 nights and flood the entire world, killing everything that existed on land; not only people, but all the plants and animals as well. After building the ark, God had Noah collect one male and one female of all the creatures (beasts, insects, etc.) and seven of the “clean” beasts, and to take them into the ark. Once Noah, his wife, his sons and their wives, and all the animals were on board the ark, God made it rain. After it rained for 40 days and 40 nights, the entire world was flooded, and the water was so high that it reached over the tops of the mountains. As the waters receded, the ark came to rest on Mount Ararat. Noah let out a raven first, and then a dove on three more occasions. When he released the dove the second time, the dove returned with an olive branch. The third time the dove was released, it did not return. Then Noah and his family left the ark, and released all the animals. God then created a rainbow as a promise that he would never again flood the earth.…
