Noah
Noah meaning “rest” or “comfort” is played by Russell Crowe. In Genesis 5:1-6:2 we can see that Noah is a direct descendant of Adam. His father was Lamech but his mother was unknown. Noah was the father to Shem, Ham and Japheth when he was five hundred years old. Throughout the bible Noah is considered a very righteous man, he lived a perfect life in God’s eyes following all of his commandments. The faith and trust that Noah had in his creator is truly remarkable, this type of faith we all should strive for. God choose Noah for this task because he knew Noah’s faith was so strong that he would be able to believe in what God was capable of. Therefore, Noah and his family built the Ark how God commanded them to. In Genesis 6:15 God states “This is how you are to build it: The ark is to be three hundred cubits long, fifty cubits wide and thirty cubits high.” That would mean that it is larger than a football field, but it would have to be because they filled the ark with animals two of each kind so that they could multiply. After the flood his family would re-fill the earth after God has washed it clean of all evil whether it was mankind or animals. Shem which means name, is played by Douglas Booth, he is the oldest son of Noah. he is the progenitor of Near Eastern Semitic peoples he …show more content…

The reason the raft was known as the ark was due to that the raft could hold the entire Appleton family, their animals, and some of their livestock as stated in paragraph 11. The father soon received the nickname of Noah or Noah count; the other people thought he was crazy for building the raft according to paragraph 12-13. However, this later helped him and his family when the flash flood occurred; because of his early preparations, his family and their animals and some livestock were able to escape safely. The other people didn’t prepare early like the father so they had to sit on the roof of their houses on getting on small boats as said in paragraph

God used the Babylonian empire, under the leadership of King Nebuchadnezzar, to conquer Judah, and lead the Jewish people captive to Babylon during three deportations, 605 B.C., 597 B.C., and 586 B.C. God determined that the Jewish people would remain in captivity for 70 years (cf. Jer. 25:11; 29:10) for failure to adhere to the mandated land Sabbaths that occurred over 490 years (2 Chron. 36:21). When the 70 years were completed, God began His sovereign plan to bring His people back to the Promised Land and commence building the second temple (2 Chron. 36:22-23; Jer. 29:10; Ezra 1).

The younger boys father in the plot of the story was made fun of because of his expertise in building, but because he was informally educated he did not have to suffer the consensus of the flood.

Which brings us to the ending of the novel which moves us to the part of the plot of Ishmael’s. Melville uses words from the book of Job to describe Ishmael in the epilogue that is repeated four times in Job 1:15-19 — "And I only am escaped alone to tell thee" (470). Ishmael’s miraculous survival, of course, is the result of Queequeg’s coffin, which acts as his life preserver in the whirlpool caused by the sinking of the ship: His salvation takes on profound Biblical connotations: like Job, Ishmael endures a variety of trials from which he is eventually delivered; like Jonah, he is swallowed up by a whale (only in Ishmael’s case, it’s a metaphorical swallowing); and like the Ishmael of Genesis, he is marooned in a featureless landscape and

Some claim that the vessel had very limited carrying capacity given that it is made of wood. Contrary to this belief, the time period of the flood came before species started to break off and expand, so the Ark would only need to hold 16,000 land-dwelling creatures at the maximum (Was There Really a Noah’s Ark & Flood?). Disbelievers claim that the Ark never could have existed due to the fact that no boat of this size could have been built that long ago. However, regardless of the size of the boat, the wood used to build this vessel dates back to the exact time period the Bible stated that the flood occurred (Noah’s Ark Found in Turkey?). Another claim against the belief that the Ark once sailed the Earth is that there is simply not enough water.
