Gen16: A window shalt thou make to the ark, and in a cubit shalt thou finish it above; and the door of the ark shalt thou set in the side thereof; with lower, second, and third stories shalt thou make it.
Gen17: And, behold, I, even I, do bring a flood of waters upon the earth, to destroy all flesh, wherein is the breath of life, from under heaven; and everything that is in the earth shall die.
Gen18: But with thee will I establish My covenant; and thou shalt come into the ark, thou, and thy sons, and thy wife, and thy sons' wives with thee.
A cubit is anywhere around 17.5 to 25 inches, so this is a pretty large 'house boat', as is the meaning of the word 'ark' in Hebrew back in v.14 (around 500 feet long).
Notice in verse 18 God is giving Noah a Covenant promise? This has to do with the Promise of Seed line heritage because of Christ. All souls included here are eight 'Adamic' souls. Remember that I said 'Adamic' souls, meaning from the family of 'eth Ha'adham'.
Gen 6:19 And of every living thing of all flesh, two of every sort shalt thou bring into the ark, to keep them alive with thee; they shall be male and female
Notice this verse says 'of every living thing of all flesh, two of every sort'? Might that include two of each sixth day creation races also? We know those various races are still with us today. Further, that the sons of Cain (Kenites) also made it through this flood can be discovered later in The Word.
Some falsely teach that the black race descended from Ham, a son of Noah. But Ham is of Adamic stock from Adam and Eve, not the sixth day races of 'adam'. The only other explanation is that this flood of Noah's time did not cover the 'entire earth', as the word for 'earth' here in this Chapter 6 is 'erets' in the Hebrew and can also mean 'a geographical land or soil'. Some areas of ancient writings by old civilizations record about a great flood in their region, but others do not. I'm sure there will be more evidence in our time that will shed more light on the flood of
Noah's time, and I'm looking for it.
The important matter is to realize that other peoples not of the Adamic bloodline made it through this flood written of here in The Word. All we have to do is look around us, for there is no evidence in God's Word that two of Adamic stock produced the black race. The false teaching that the sin of Ham, a son of Noah, somehow produced the Negro race is but a dream castle with no evidence from The Word. The real act of Ham's sin can easily be discovered from The Word in...
Leviticus 18 & 20: Read All. And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying...
...and even Ham's offspring Canaan was Adamic.
Gen 6:20 Of fowls after their kind, and of cattle after their kind, of every creeping thing of the earth after his kind, two of every sort shall come unto thee, to keep them alive.
Gen 21 And take thou unto thee of all food that is eaten, and thou shalt gather it to thee; and it shall be for food for thee, and for them."
Gen 22 Thus did Noah; according to all that God commanded him, so did he.
What kind of 'food that is eaten' is this? Man was not given animal meat yet until later, after the flood, so this 'food' is vegetables, grains, herbs, and fruit, which the animals aboard the Ark were to eat also. (Keep this 'animal' meat for food idea in according with Gen.1 and Gen.9).
