In this eleventh installment of the Genesis Series, Christopher Enoch takes a deep dive into the story of Noah's Ark and the flood, challenging common assumptions. By examining various ancient manuscript families, including the Masoretic text, Septuagint, Syriac, Vulgate, and Samaritan Torah, Christopher reveals what the original texts say about the ark's design and the flood's scope. He analyzes the Hebrew word "Eretz" to explore the possibility of a local flood and addresses the logistical questions that arise from a global flood narrative. The video also touches on the reasons behind the flood, the true shape of the ark, and insights from the Book of Enoch.
