- Did the flood mentioned in the Bible (Genesis 6-8) actually happen? Was it just a fable that was stolen from Mesopotamian epics? Is there any evidence that can support the Biblical account?

You don't know how well the timing of this video is for me. I was getting discouraged from a lot of scientists "destroying" the credibility of Noah's Ark
I love the fact as to how God does things in Perfect timing.

Is it true that noah get male and female in every animals? The latest stemate was there are 7.77 million kind of animals in the world, then noah get two of each which is male and female, soo more or less 15milion animals was in that ark,, how big is that ark? Two gerraf need big space, as will as hipopotamus, elephant, rino, beast, cow, carabaos, horses, zebras, goats, bucks, bears, wolfs, big cats, and etcs., it needs space. Then how big is the atock room og foods,, noah needs to bring extra animals for the carnivores ones, and grass for herbivores. Then after the flood, why does kangaroo find only in Australia, komodo dragon only in Indonesia, why philippines dont have lions, hepo, rinos, elephants, giraffe? Were does that ark land after the flood? How does tarsier manage to come here in the philippines? JUSt wondering, I hope you can help me find the answers of those questions.. I'm still searching for truth, keep asking to anyone for someone might give answer and inlighten my mind. Thank you

This is really interesting, I hope people realize it.
The unknown period for the ancients is something I feel is seldom spoken of. Looking at Greek history, they knew the time of the Bronze Age collapse and a bit before, but otherwise it was all unclear. What the Bronze Age people thought of as their past is just amazing, because it's their tradition of spoken history just coming to be written down after years of developing writing, all of the time period that their ancestors spoke of.
Early civilization is just amazing, and the transition from the Neolithic to Bronze Age needs to be covered more. I'm glad this channel goes over such things, incredible work!!

@The Gharqad Tree there is no proof for a trinity, and if muslims were to set that aside and seek truth rather than doctorine, then we can only hope they will follow Christ to the Father.
Problem is, they love listening tovi singer to keep them away from the Spirit of the Father. Just because they are blinded from the atonement made, its sad other faiths fall to them rather than to God who is truth.
We can only pray 🙏🏻
Niko Bellic And there’s evidence that your prophets were valid? Also where is the evidence that dates back to this Jesus figure? I’m not a muslims by the way.
Niko Bellic First off, how do you know that these prophets performed miracles? A lot of them defy the laws of physics and scientific logic and lack in historical evidence. Secondly, according to certain Islamic traditions Muhammad is a descendant of Abraham’s second son Ishmael. Last but not least just because a book says something doesn’t make it true. There’s hardly any evidence that the apostles even existed and all of their supposed writings came along way after their deaths, they also contain contradictions.
@Niko Bellic you need two witness to be true in john 1. Who is the second?

This comment section has gone so off topic...
try the bible
I'm really glad that I never started studying this 30 years ago because this information was probably not available or widely distributed and would have resulted in me believing some of the atheist understandings that lead them to reject the whole Bible as copies of myths from other people (which they were essentially).
I've been following the Kings and Generals historic version of Mesopotamia and how it was under constant battles and takeovers by the various leaders and this video helps add another angle to the time period before Abraham left Ur.
Thank you...another great and interesting presentation.
I feel the same
Peli_can Dude I reject the bible because of ‘stories’ like the flood and many others. The flood story shows a complete misunderstanding of physics, biology, and science. There is no reason to believe any of it happened because it couldn’t have. Reasons?
- you can’t drive when its raining 1” every 15 minutes or 4” per hour.
- to flood Mt. Ararat, it would have to rain continuously 4.5” per hour for 40 days
- to flood Mt. Everest (i.e the entire surface), it would have had to rain more than 7” per hour every day for 40 days
- there is no valid explanation for where all the water went over the next 325 days
These kinds of rain events would have sunk the vessel. And these ancient people had no understanding of where the water would go so didn’t make up a story for it.
After 40 days of rain, the ark floated around for another 10 1/2 months before running aground on Mt. Ararat. That’s a full year.
- with limited space on the ark, how did they store a year’s worth of food for 8 people and thousands of animals?
- without refrigeration, food for both people and animals would have rotted. They would have suffered from scurvy similar to the Spanish fleets that died from it after only a few months at sea.
- where did they keep all of the meat for the carnivores? That would have rotted, too.
- with only one 3’x3’ window, how did they acquire enough oxygen through that tiny hole for the entire ship’s population? With the amount of excrement being produced, the methane gas would have suffocated them. And the stink...
- with only one 3’x3’ window, how did they remove the excrement? A full time job for 8 people.
- the lack of light would have produced all sorts of health problems. To keep lamps/torches going for light throughout the ship, they would have needed fuel...for a year. No plants could have survived in the dark on the ark.
- ‘pairs of animals, one male, one female’. Do you think this might have caused some offspring? Even more animals to feed. And places to put them? Rabbits, mice, and rats alone would have overrun the ship after a year.
- 4 couples, 3 of child bearing age, wouldn’t have had any children in a one year period?
An finally, 8 people of Middle East decent repopulate the the entire planet and produce all of the visible races? From African blacks to Swedish caucasians? Interesting when archeological investigations have civilizations starting in Africa, not the Middle East.
The ark story was just another poorly thought out claim by these ancient people. Not every civilization has a flood story. If there was a flood, every civilization would have the story. These guys can go through the bible and other ancient texts and find whatever they want. But, without some facts to back it up, their claims are just as unfounded as the creation myth.
@@Wrkumlin
Wow, you've really thought this through from your limited knowledge and information available from a story written anywhere from 2,100 to 3,500 years ago but was actually supposed to have happened much farther back in time since it was passed on for many generations before that.
To be honest, I don't know what happened but the main idea was this: After God created humans he kicked them out of the Garden of Eden (essentially being kept by God who provided everything for them that they would need) for disobeying a rule and told them to work the earth and sweat for their supper.
From that point they just got worse and kept finding new ways to offend God and sin against their fellow humans so God decided that he needed to start fresh. Some see that as genocidal or some other act of immorality that made them despise God even more than allowing stories to be told in his Holy Book that don't make sense to those who want to find the exact details of how that flood worked.
But the words of the Bible don't just talk about rain, they also include water from below the earth that was brought up to help flood the world faster. I've heard a few recent stories that say we do have a huge water source stored under the ground and that it is almost as much as the water in the oceans. I haven't researched that either because it is not quite as relevant as the idea that humans sin and we find new ways to insult and disrespect what many believe is the creator of the universe.
And again, to be honest, that is what I try to focus on and try to improve internally without judging what others do or believe.
If you'd like to elaborate on what you do believe and why that makes more sense to you then it might be more entertaining than calculating all the old stories that only set the stage for the modern world where we see all the problems of sin and evil coming up everywhere and people doing things to insult God and ingore his wisdom is even more obvious with every school shooting, rape, abortion, sex change operation, and any other silliness we witness daily.
I'm always open to hearing new versions of reality but lately I haven't heard anything that makes me believe any less in God. They all just confirm that there is something much more intelligent and powerful behind our world and think it's a better idea to seek the face of that being instead of trying to find ways to justify materialistic and sensual pleasures.
@@peli_candude554 So, what I get from your response is that god made some people that were emotionally unable to follow his 'rules', rules they were't told. He didn't tell them what sin was. They had no more reason to understand what it meant than if he didn't exist at all. Then he punished them for doing something wrong when they couldn't have know it was wrong without eating from the fruit of the tree in the first place. Saying "Don't eat from the tree" to Adam and Eve was like saying "Don't eat that cookie" to a 3 year old. The temptation is too great. And if that's how your god teaches people, by testing them, then he's immoral. He's a Barbaric bully of a god, with the same personality as those men that made him up thousands of years ago - believe what I do or you'll suffer. Is that how you raised your children (assuming you have raised children)? Did you tempt them and then punish them if they didn't do just like you wanted without telling them what you wanted in the first place?
I'm sorry, but your god in no way represents the good of good and evil when he drowns everyone for the doings of a few. And why did he have to drown them? Why did he have to drown all the animals and plants? Was he so incompetent that he couldn't come up with a better way to get rid of the bad eggs in the bunch? And, did it do any good? Nope. He had to direct his warring barbarians to kill entire cities, running swords through the bellies of the pregnant women. But he's all knowing, all seeing, right? Your 'loving' god should have known that drowning 2.5 million of his creations, plus all the animals, would have done nothing and we saw that in history 3,000 years ago. We see it today. So, like I said, he's a bully. He demands worship for what? Fear of eternal persecution if you don't?
I know you have to defend all of the crap in the bible to maintain your belief in your god. But I don't. I can look at the bible and see the good and realize that it's good because it's good, not because some god said so. If I need a god to tell me what's good, then I also need him to tell me what's bad. And now I can't think for myself. I can't have free will because any decisions I make could disrupt your god's 'plan'. If I do have free will, your god can't have a plan because there are potentially 7 billion disrupters out there every day - atheists, Muslims, Hindus, Buddhists, even Christians, or any of the less mainstream civilizations out there that have their own beliefs like the indigenous peoples of North and South America. Your god isn't very good at marketing. And your biblical stories don't make him any better.
I'm not trying to get you to disbelieve. This started out as a statement of why atheists reject the bible. The question should be more like why I can't accept it. And that is what I'm trying to show you. We've only discussed 1 or 2 stories here. There are many more that just make the bible unbelievable.
@@peli_candude554 By the way, a little research finds that some believe there's enough water under the earth's crust to be equal to the amount of water in the oceans. However, to flood the earth to the top of Mt. Everest would take 7 times the amount of water currently in our oceans. Then there's the question of how it came out and how it went back down. Magic?

I can't wait for the video about how Jonah wasn't "really" inside the belly of a sea creature for 3 days, So let's examine the text and its translation and interpretation because "scientifically" this is not possible. And thus Christians can follow the science wherever it leads.
Killing everyone in a flood to get rid of sinners didn't work did it
So it was pointless.

Hey IP, how do you interpret the "fountains of the deep" contributing water to the flood?
This may help in that regard
th-cam.com/video/6EK8Ma83g5g/w-d-xo.html
That could be aquifers pushing up water for some reason. Which could happen in a few different ways, not sure if a monsoon could cause it though...
They've actually found that there's very possibly more water currently under the Earth's mantel than is on the surface of the Earth right now.
Geysers!
@@corydanielwolf5684 Well yes obviously the issue is if and why they errupted along with the coming of the Monsoon. Assuming it was not pure Miracle and a more subtle divine hand in the form of more natural forces...
Or could a mass eruption of geysers be what caused the Monsoon?
It’s fascinating that many studies of the flood account omit the fact that the “fountains of the deep burst forth AND the windows of heaven were open” Gen 7:11 ESV.
So, there was not only a 40-day monsoon from above but the earth was ejecting water from water tables below. This was a catastrophic event; not just forty days of rain.
" fountains of the deep" could refer to all the moisture that entered the atmosphere when a comet impacted the deep ocean? There are 3 new craters found in Indian and Pacific oceans dated to this time. The largest of the 3 near Madagascar is called the burckle Crater.

You should do a video about how Zoroastrianism affected ancient Jewish Thinking/Culture, and claims of plagiarism.
If there is enough material to conduct research on this topic, of course.
It's been a more difficult subject for me personally.
Can you give some examples? It's a claim I here here and there but never see any real arguments
@@benisrael2266 Well for example that the concept of Archangels, the Apocalypse and Final Judgment were "taken" from Zoroastrianism, since the Zoroastrian king Cyrus freed the Jewish people from Babylon's rule and brought them home, even helped to erect the temple, and is called in the bible the "annointed one". The claim is that Zoroastrian ideas such as Apocalypse, Angels and the Satan did not exist in the Jewish Religion prior to that event, and was implemented in Judaism due to syncretism.
Zoroastrianism is a highly dualistic Religion, with basically two Gods representing good and evil, and there are immortal beings that assist the "Good" deity, and it does often speak of a day in which all people will be judged.
@@ApplestreamRuben I will look into it for you. Firstly i think that the old testament dosnt believe in dualism though!
And also angels most certainly existed in pre exile judiasm as they are clearly reference in the torah, joshua and joshua. As to arch angels there is separate "class" of Angels called the angles of the lord who seem to be used for certain tasks. Also by the way I am jewish so j am talking from a jewish perspective so we dont believe in a satan that is gods enemy . I'll look up the other things for you
@Behrad At oh cool, thanks for the info!
Great stuff bro. I hope you continue to recover in health!
What happen?
It's like police say about witnesses. People see the same event but the details are usually different. Not just these two...there are one's in North/South America, Africa, Asia, Australia, etc.
Everyone started after the flood, if everyone had grandparents who told them about the flood, it is clear that so many nations have this story as a "myth" even though it was a reality. And as you wrote, generation after generation only remembered certain details of the whole story, until someone decides to write it but maybe already too distorted. For me, this is another reason to believe that the Bible is true. It's the most complex, the most proven. But also the most mysterious, because God wants man to understand, to learn to love, to respect, to believe, and only the one who seeks God with all his heart finds him. As if God showed everything clearly and descended to earth in all his power, no one will dare not believe, but in this way no one will show what kind of man he is, bad or good.
Here on earth we show if: We live to be a blessing to those around us on this earth or we live for ourself and everyone has to please us. The Bible shows us what and where a life lived in selfishness leads us, even our consciousness that man shows us through many films we make where Selfishness leads Evil and the desire for power to oppress others.
And a lie told often enough will eventually become "the truth".
The first cities/civilizations grew up besides rivers, so any culture which DIDN'T have a flood story would be the oddity.
@@tyrionlannister3459 Yes, the lie there was no flood is a big one!
@@differous01 You mean like the Puna, in Ecuador? The plateau is so high there are places humans can't breathe without carrying oxygen. Yet, the American Indians have the same basic story as the Bible. No one is going to build the kind of ship each story states unless the flood is a lot bigger than just from a river. No one is going to haul 2 of every kind or claim they were the only survivors.
IP, what are your thoughts on the Durupinar site? A natural formation or manmade? Could it plausibly be the remnants of Noah's ship?
That formation doesn't correspond to what the ark should look like with the meassurements given in the Bible, not the same shape.
If the flood was local, what was the promise God made that was symbolize by the rainbow?
Rainbows are an inescapable consequence of water retracting light due to the difference in optical density between it and light.
The ancients did not see the global Earth that we take for granted today as a result of education, naval discovery and technological development.
Unless they were traders between various far off countries the ancients whole world would have been limited to at the most a few hundred miles in any given direction, rather than the thousands we know to be the case today.
Worse than that, tor the greater part of any given ancient population that number would likely have been only tens of miles in any given direction.
Even today many people do not stray more than a few miles from the place that they grew up in over their entire lifespan.
My hypothesis is that civilizations always build up around water source, so flooding is naturally be expected once in a while. There must have been several large floods in various regions throughout human history
I find it funny that every single thing in religion is “copied from another,” so there for it’s all untrustworthy and false. It leaves out the fact that there had to be a first, even if it were all copied. But it’s so convenient they say that and it’s just a scape goat
@Buster Scruggs Thats basically what I meant. They claim the Bible is this and that but it’s unfounded plus they do the same, and worse!
@Buster Scruggs By evolutionist do you mean people who believe in the scientific fact of evolution? Or, are you using it in a different manner?

@Buster Scruggs but evolution is a fact...take for example that some people have evolved along far enough to be that evolution is a real thing...well other humans are still stuck in the past, believing in a stone age God,of people who lived in a desert, who's rather shy about proving that he really existed
@Buster Scruggs by the way...your definition of scientific fact is way off...we don't necessarily have to observe and have it repeated...all we actually need is to look at the outcome of said events,and come to a logical conclusion...I know that the word "logical" is very uncomfortable to you religious types...get over it

The flood was a lot bigger than that. Look up the younger dryas impact hypothesis that's gotten a lot of direct support from impact craters newly discovered in Greenland. The northern ice sheet melted suddenly, ending the ice age and flooding gigantic areas of the planet.
This follows closer to the land bridge failure between 8500 and 11000 years ago in the Arabian Gulf. The Southern cliffs of Iran dip to depths of 150 Meters meaning a river existed there before the floodong occurred. As well, Bahrain was a swamp at that time. Flooding would have caused the exact problems noted as the ground in those areas was already saturated with water. If you check the depths to this day, most of the water covered areas are only 50 meters deep with the exception of where the river was.
The grand canyon in the united states was carved by the worldwide flood , in a very short and sudden time scale.
No, it wasn't. This would have required a fast stream of water in order to carve through the layers in a very short and sudden time scale. But with fast water there comes a lot of inertia. Look at how narrow some bends in the Grand Canyon are. No fast waterstream would have chosen this way. @@markdettra1794

Great video as always but what I will say is how long a group of people experienced a hurricane for says nothing about the hurricane itself, being a Jamaican myself these things are somewhat common place, for other Caribbean nations, because of Jamaica's unique location we experience a hurricane about once a decade despite there being on every summer, and when we do get rainfall sometimes it only last about 3 days due to the hurricane making a U-turn, I say this to say the amount of rainfall experience may just be due to the trajectory and speed of the hurricane.
Interestingly, the family of Abram came from the area just below the mountains of Urartu. Padan Aram. This is the ancestral land from which fitting brides were sought for the patriarchs who wished to marry among their own people rather than the local Canaanites.
It is interesting to note that the father of Semitic Monotheist peoples came from the region where the godly Noah and his sons exited the ark and first began repopulating the region after the flood.
It seems like there would be better, more accurate cultural memory of such events there than in the reconstituted cities of Sumer and Akkad and else where.
Pure speculation, of course, but food for thought.
Hey Michael! Just a question if you might someday get to making a video about it/mentioning it in something.
What do we do with the fact that the genesis text seems to say that only Noah and his family survived. Would that put scripture in error if other cultures around the globe survived to speak of these events? How might we reconcile this issue?
Also consider the Haudenosaunee and neighbors having stories of the Peacemaker and some united in a federation.
Also consider the Noah boat of the world map (a round boat) with ribs of the nations holding it all together.

So. How do you account for seabed fossils found on mountain tops??
read a second book
A Google User Plate Tectonic Theory does it for me.
But there are so many abnormalities that cry out for a global flood and catastrophism.
We find huge seashells on top of mountains (here in Appalachia and I’m told even on the tallest mountains, like Mt Everest ).
We find massive jungle vegetation and forests under ice caps.
Compare this to the massive burial of plants and animals that became coal and oil.
We find frozen mammoths with undigested food still in their bellies,
requiring a massive and near instant temperature drop.
So many unanswered questions.
Shells on mountains are always with limestone which forms under the sea. Science tells us and correctly that tectonic plates is one method to create mountains. Limestone isn't created by a flood that never happened. There has never been a flood that covered every mountain on the planet.
Science has also noted things like a warble in our axis at certain times, and other shifts that can change tropical zones into deserts or frozen zones.
Listen to science and you will learn... Listen to the Bible and you will get things wrong! :)
Ancient people found shells on mountains and put 2 and 2 together and got 7 ... It was a nice guess but totally wrong.
A flood that never happened didn't do it. :)
Religion teaches about talking snakes... lol :) Science and anyone with an IQ over 80 knows snakes don't talk...lmao :)
@@zedm7523 I think you need to rethink things a bit. There are marine fossils within 200 feet of the top of Mount Everest which means water could easily flow over this "high mountain". There are whale fossils high in the Andes giving evidence to the fact that the summits were easily covered by water. The mountain ranges were a consequence of tectonic movement during and after the flood. When we look at how the mountain ranges are parallel to the tectonic fault lines a scenario of a global flood becomes plausible.
@@gusolsthoorn1002 No gus it is you who needs to rethink...lol :) The shells in rock are also in limestone... Limestone is formed under the sea. There was no flood...lol :)
So let's approach it from a different angle... Why do you hate your God so much that you believe he would kill all the innocent babies, infants, children and babes still in the wombs of pregnant women? Why are you so eager to believe your God is a mass murderer?... :)
If you were Jesus, how would you feel about your supposed followers who accuse your father of such crimes against innocents? The Bible is a load of garbage! :)
As for the Biblical story, ancient language experts have declared there is no literary dependence on the Arcadian or any other flood Text.
The epic of Gilgamesh even has the dove/raven part of the story. The oldest tablet of Gilgamesh is a complete one from the 18th century BC, 1700s years before the Dead sea scrolls.
@J Mireles I would like to know as well
@J Mireles if you're writing about the flood you should look at the cuneiform clay tablets archaeologists found, telling the story of a flood and a God called Enlil who created a storm to flood everything as well as providing information about what materials were needed to build it .
Mesopotamia.
British museum has 1000s of those early clay tablets.
They predate the Jewish & Christian Noah story by 1000 years
It's an ancient story, I believe there has to be some truth about a flood otherwise it would have died out .
But it was s story handed down from family to family over millennia , eventually taken and characters names changed into the ones we find in the bible.
One expert in translating them is on utube, IRWIN finkle I think his name is, British museum is where the tablets are,
It's worth a look especially if you're still writing your paper.
@J Mireles around 8000 years ago, or 8000 bc , I can't remember without looking , a flood caused the land joining Britain to Europe disappeared because of flooding which created the English channel.
I believe there's some truth in the middle eastern flood , because the story survive for so long after being passed down to each generation over millennia.
I believe there's a lot of truth in many biblical stories,
I'd be interested in reading your work once you finish, do you have a website you'll post it on , if so I'd love to read .
I'm interested in Learning anything new , I don't want to take sides , I'm no Christian or atheist, I believe in God but I don't believe everything man writes .
Like you I want all the information I can find.
Good luck with your work , I genuinely mean that, theres not enough people like you on utube who actually seek all info .
Most decide what to believe without looking for evidence or information.
I respect people like yourself who go beyond what the majority do .

Love to see where this series goes. I agree that the flood story originates in Bronze Age Mesopotamian oral tradition and not merely a story invented by two different writing groups that got interwoven during the Babylonian exile.
Syn Cloud......HTF do you know? were you there? What were the dinosaurs like? How did the kangaroos and the koala bears get there?
I think the best argument for gods existence is the song i was taught in kindergarten.
"jesus loves me. Yes, i know, cause the bible tells me so."
Strange “argument”.
Hey Michael, How is your health man?
The human bottleneck and violence rise seemed obvious to me. Man stayed violent towards each other well into the bronze age, Social insulation was the norm and entire villages spawned from one man and his many wives produced entire clans that all hailed back to their previous ancestor. These men would compete with each other (I use compete very loosely here, some were better at dating with the given rules than others) and their haplogroup spread. To scoff at this idea or to consider it incredulous seems almost like willing ignorance. Todays civilizations hail from one man. Hell Europe of all places Is basically spread into two halves both originating from one man, one clan. Hell Humanity has a shocking lack of abundance of haplogroups, in fact it seems entire civilizations hail from a prior father of some sort. I find human migrations fascinating. Great video IP. (Main interst is R1a migrations and Europe as well as India and Iran and some of the middle east.)
I love your work, it has really helped me bridge science with my faith and given me new insight into science and what it can be used for. Reading an interview with Fraser, he quoted Aquinas where he said (paraphrasing) "Science provides data, our metaphysical framework is how we interpret that data and what truth we derive from it"
Take a look at Walt Brown's hydroplate theory. It explains an awful lot.
It is known that one firth of the population of Asia is descended form Ganus Khan the mogul horde leader and emperor and that is only a thousand years ago, so why is so difficult to believe that four men from even older times could father so meany people?
Man is still violent towards his fellow man today and that would be true even if the entire world was atheist. They forget we're not claiming that Christianity is proven true because it made the world a paradise. Christians realize their sinfulness and look to God as savior. Yes, we should try to improve, but becoming perfect in some absolute sense on earth is not the "goal" as this is impossible. The idea of a flood local in scope but "universal" in judgment is a lot more plausible than a global flood. Okay say it was a miracle, but how many miracles are needed to make the fundamentalist version of the story make sense? (since they want it to play out in a naturalistic world in real time) If our interpretation of the bible is contrary to fact, then our interpretation is at fault.
epstein was killed wow so funny😐
This sounds really interesting. Would you by chance have any resources (Books or papers) you would recommend were I could read up on this?
Hello IPman.. Nice content 👍🏻
Interesting evidence on the flood in the Persian gulf area, but completely missed the fact of the much lower sea level during the Ice Age. The cloud was also global since a sudden rise in sea level would be earth wide. The late Ice Age extinction event was caused by a rise in sea level the reached the edges of the ice sheets. For more see the book "Solving The Mystery of the Biblical Flood"
Sometimes you just really want to rewind the reel.
I love these flood stories. Once people realized that the Earth is a globe, they discounted them, because of the unlikelihood that the surface of the planet would be completely covered. What they did not consider is that in a sufficiently large body of water (e.g. Lake Superior) a floating craft would be out of sight of land, indefinitely, creating the impression that the entire world had been inundated. Having no form of propulsion, the Ark really would not have moved at all. It would not have taken much to convince people that the entire world had perished by flood.
This seems cool. It reminds me of an idea that would have came out before the advent of Zoom lenses. 😂
And, of course, the story is in many cultures because it was the same flood.
There were only 8 people who survived the flood, so what other cultures?
@@IWITNESS7 when the descendants of Noah, which had greatly increased since the flood gathered to build the tower of babel to heaven, God caused the tribes to be scattered around the earth.
So, one day they enjoyed technology and easy living, the next day they were cave persons living in a different part of the world.
The newly isolated groups were on their own but still told the same stories.
But the original groups they came from all shared the same history.

Natural disasters were often credited to the gods. It was as many researchers suggest a way for ancient people to make sense of their world.
Yeah humans seem to like to retroactively apply agency to events they probably didn't have any part in. I.e. a grand paradise has been lost, child birth is tortuous, and we work harder for worse food than our hunter/ gatherer ancestors. Why... because we as a species have transgressed in some way.
People live near water...so of course there are going to be flood stories from different people groups

If the Flood only affected the area of Mesopotamia, as some claim, why did Noah have to build an Ark? He could have walked to the other side of the mountains and escaped. Most importantly, if the Flood were local, people not living in the vicinity of the Flood would not have been affected by it. They would have escaped God’s judgment on sin.
Yep the video makes a lot of sense, until you realize he's trying to rationalize the Bible.
Wow, YECs don't think about this much.... Noah was a prophet proclaiming judgement, as Hebrews 11 says. He couldn't do that if he left. Also, if the land was covered in violence travel was not safe. It was better to stay there and ride out the storm. I'll be covering this in my next video on the flood, as I have 3 more to make.
How are people misinterpreting this scripture? It says "ALL" the mountains were covered not some meaning the ENTIRE earth was flooded.
Genesis 7:17-20
Then the flood came upon the earth for forty days, and the water increased and lifted up the ark, so that it rose above the earth. The water prevailed and increased greatly upon the earth, and the ark floated on the surface of the water. The water prevailed more and more upon the earth, so that all the high mountains everywhere under the heavens were covered.
The water prevailed fifteen cubits higher, and the mountains were covered

/ the flood chronology \
1. In the 600th year of Noah (second month, tenth day), Noah entered the ark (Ge 7:4, 10, 11).
2. In the 600th year of Noah (second month, seventeenth day), the Flood began (Ge 7:11).
3. The waters flooded the earth for 150 days (5 months of 30 days each), including the 40 days and 40 nights of
rain (Ge 7:12, 17, 24; 8:1), plus the initial receding.
4. The waters further receded to the point that (600th year, seventh month, seventeenth day) the ark rested on
Ararat (Ge 8:3, 4).
5. The waters continued to abate so that (600th year, tenth month, first day) the tops of the mountains were visible
(Ge 8:5).
6. Forty days later (600th year, eleventh month, tenth day) Noah sent out a raven and a dove (Ge 8:6). Over the
next 14 days, Noah sent out two more doves (Ge 8:10, 12). In all, this took 61 days or two months and one day.
7. By Noah’s 601st year on the first month, the first day, the water had dried up (Ge 8:12, 13).
8. Noah waited one month and twenty‐six days before he disembarked in the second month, the 27th day of his
601st year. From beginning to end, the Flood lasted one year and ten days from Ge 7:11 to Ge 8:14.

But most egregious of your assumptions is the misunderstanding that Old Testament writers wrote based upon what they "knew." This denies the entire point of the Bible - the fact that it was INSPIRED. God TOLD them what to write. Obviously, the writers in some cases were very familiar with their content but in other cases very unfamiliar with it. How do you think prophecy works?

One of your best vids. The idea of a 'rolling' series of major floods caused by the late Younger Dryas impact is my favorite theory. Need to hear more about the animals though, did many species experience a bottleneck at that time? If not then why is so much attention given in the story to preserving them?
There was a temperature fall in the younger dryas, it did not create a genetic bottleneck for humans, the pleistiocene megafauna died out or almost All of them, the wholly mammoth lived on at Wrangel Island to around 4000 years ago.The dying of the megafauna was not syncroneus. The impact hypothesis is not accepted as a fact in Academica, there could bebother culprits such as volcanes, but there was an impact, because there has been observed Platinum spikes in ice cores and peat samples from around the globe, but not enough to have caused a planetary catastrophe, in fact human seems to thrive and multiply at the time.
If you are insinuating that the Genesis account came first, i.e. prior to the earliest Mesopotamian accounts I find that highly doubtful. Ancient tradition or not, the earliest written accounts in the area of Mesopotamia are non Hebrew in origin.
But the alphabetical order came to be invented in canaan or close to hebraic origin...
I always thought that the "Great Catastophy" was always the flood. It seemed to fit to me
Hard to believe we are still talking about Noah in the 21st century. Think
science disproved this about 400 years ago.
you mean the same science that is unsure of the big bang?
@@Xyz-nl4ys Science will figure out one day
how the universe was created. If you are stupid enough to believe in the ark that is
fine. Go figure everything you use was discovered by science not some make believe god.
Hello. So, what I want to do with this message is to simply show what the Gospel is. I am not trying to force my belief down people's throats. It's your choice whether you want to accept it. So, a question: Do you think you are a good person? If so, have you ever stolen anything, lied, looked lustfully, watched adult material? All of those are sins and anyone who sinned is not good(on God's standard). You, I and most( most because babies don't sin, and maybe specifically mentally Ill people) purely human beings have violated God's moral law. Since God is just, He can't let sin go just like that.So is there any hope? Yes, there is! Out of love and mercy, God became a human being, Jesus Christ. Jesus lived a sinless life and finally died on the cross to bear the punishment we deserve, we deserve to be punished because we have sinned. The reason why blood must be spilled for remission of sins is because the life of the flesh is in the blood, in the Old Testament Jews sacrificed animals for sins but the sacrifice of animals were enough for remission of some sins, not all. It wasn't infinite, unlike Jesus's. Jesus is the Lamb of God, the ultimate sacrifice for sins which is enough for all sins that have been done, are done and will be done. The Old Testament sacrifice of animals, the spilled blood of those animals could cleanse people from some sins but not ALL, unlike Jesus's. He was buried and rose again. His resurrection proved that His death was enough to pay our penalty, the penalty for our sins. Jesus paid our penalty and in order to accept the free gift of salvation from God, we must trust in Jesus's spilled Blood, His finished work on the Cross for our Salvation. And then your sins will be forgiven because of what Christ did, you will be saved. See: Romans 3:10 KJV, Romans 3:23 KJV, Romans 5:12 KJV, Romans 6:23 KJV, Romans 5:8-9 KJV Romans 10:9-10 KJV, Ephesians 2:8-9 KJV, John 3:16 KJV, Leviticus 17:11 KJV, Ephesians 1:7 KJV, Colossians 1:20 KJV, 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 KJV.

Regarding Christianity, check out InspiringPhilosophy's videos about the Ressurection of Jesus and the reliability of the New Testament. Together, they show good evidence that Christianity is true.H

@@JohnDoe-tw8es Did you read the last parts of the message?
I see a lot of picking and choosing similarities here but little to zero considerable correlation with the biblical record.
then you haven't learnt to read...
@@Tzimiskes3506 What exactly is that supposed to mean?
Genesis was most likely written as a polemic against the other versions. Michael Heiser argues the same about Chapter 6 of Genesis regarding the Nephalim.
The main two issues I ran across with this is that it gives away for saying that the Bible is possibly errored or flawed in translation and that genesis wasn’t written by Moses which it was. Maybe I understood it wrong but could you please explain more or make another video on this to tie it all up?
If genesis was written by Moses then why were there two contradictory flood accounts?
@@ParadiseLordRyu bro just because someone tells me there’s some myth or story that contradicts the Bible, thhat doesn’t mean I’m gonna believe it 😂
The Bible is demonstrably errored. It definitely is flawed in translation. And only tradition claims that Moses wrote Genesis, even though the Hebrew language wasn't a written language at the time he supposedly existed. What reality do you live in?
I am sure that someone is confused the last ice age with the flood.
They have.
Glacial melt periods =/= global flood.
The sea levels do rise, but not catastrophically fast.
It's gradual enough to abandon cities at old sea level and build entire new ones higher up.
Very detailed and interesting research in a well done video.
My dad & I were watching a Netflix series called Ancient Apocalypse and the journalist Graham on there mentioned many different cultures all claiming to have had a interaction with a Devine being from the sky that warned all people of the flood. My dad and I began to discuss what if God came down in many different forms of different Gods to communicate to different cultures in a way they would all understand? Noah being for the Hebrew people, Buda for Asia, and different Gods for India and other nations… makes it plausible for all religions to technically be correct since they all somewhat have the same experiences. The flood being one of them. ❤
They are later oral corruptions of the original Genesis origin event

Interesting. What's most compelling to me is what you would expect Biblical stories to be if they were entirely man-made vs. what the Bible actually is.
What's the difference? Man made the Bible, not God. Men decided which works would be included and omitted. "Inspired by God" is not "Written by God."
Can you do a critique on “Human secularism”
Ah, I've been waiting forever for this one...and it didn't disappoint!
Fact: The Tigris and Euphrates rivers do not flow from the same source, rather they just converge after flowing from north to south.
I recommend checking this out, he made one on Eden too. The Hebrew actually indicates what you're saying. I guess you're referring to Eden and the 4 rivers.

Noah's flood is not a natural history, but simply a Euphrates River flood
noah's ark is on ararat mountains, his settlement, his wife's grave & noah's grave have been found in the town of sagliksuyu in eastern turkey. it means The Place of Eight in turkish.
Yes it has been found . The first time I investigated . This man was called Ron Wyatt showed what looked to be an anchor , I started thinking what did a float boat need an anchor ? That would be dangerous draging around an anchor . About a year and a half later it was like a light went off . It was a rocker stopper/ paravane for modern Fishing boats to control roll from waves . No two year later the Found on another video they found three more. It was to control roll .

Ron Wyatt was an absolute charlatan and a fraud. You can beleive nothing of what he said or claimed.
No graves were found and certainly not the ones of the alleged Noah and his wife. Moron.
@@sidepot The Bible says in John 3:16-36 that whoever believes in the Lord Jesus Christ shall not perish but have everlasting life, the Bible also says in Romans 10:9 that those who declare with their mouth that Jesus Christ is their God, Lord, and Savior they shall be saved. Revelation 1:8 says that Jesus is the alpha and the omega. Luke and revelation is the ending times, and Jesus is returning back. So are you going to submit your life to him or no? Narrow is the path that leads to the gates of heaven, but only few people find it. The gates that is the path to destruction is where many people find it! Jesus loves you SO MUCH! That he died on the cross, and was resurrected from the dead 3 days later to give us eternal life……..

Do you have anything to contribute within the context of this thread?
Outstanding as always. I hope sometime in the future, you will make videos about historicity of Noah, Abraham, Moses, etc... I can't find good sources on that topic.
Because there are none
Intreresting map of Persian Gulf as Eden and the four rivers of Eden. But note that those rivers are flowing into Eden if the garden lay at sea level, not out from Eden. They are running downward from higher terrains into the water of the gulf. In Genesis Eden has a source from which the four rivers flow. Eden in Persian Gulf, the rivers Euphrat and Tigris and the two other rivers would flow backwards, from the water up to the mountains. That is why land of Eden and the garden must lay on a level where rivers spring forth from the ground, that is in a mountaineous area.
I did a video on this already: th-cam.com/video/76PWWNDaMb4/w-d-xo.html
The earth's history had seen drastic climate change that wiped out almost entire population of creatures, including the permian, and other period. So global flooding is nothing spectacular.
This is fascinating! I've read
