This week we’re looking at the question “was Noah’s flood local or global?” Well, consider this: Noah’s ark was huge. At five hundred and ten feet long, fifty-one feet high, and eighty-five feet wide, the ark was a massive ship designed to hold two of every kind of animal, supplies for a whole year, and Noah and his family.

Now why would Noah need such a huge ark if the flood was just local? He and his family could’ve just packed up and left the area. And animals outside the flood zone would’ve survived so why did two of every kind need to come to the ark anyway?

No! The text of Genesis is clear: the flood was a global event!
