Keep in mind, however, that Noah had as much as 120 years of warning, and may have had (older) family to help until shortly before the Flood started. You really ought to check out the Ark Encounter and/or related resources. Can we definitely say no miracles were involved? Of course not! But we have a 1:1 replica that suggests we don't need miracles, at least for the animal husbandry. | |
Apr 8, 2023 at 0:04 | comment | added | Lige | Thanks for the edification on my comments, they were certainly too flippant. I've deleted them now. My point remains that, even in the ideal scenario you have described, building a boat large enough to hold thousands of animals and their food, then feeding them, still seems pretty out of reach for Noah and company. While it is certainly possible, I still imagine that a miraculous loaves-and-fishes event was more likely. You've given me a lot of food for thought (pun unintended), though, so thanks for helping me to mull over the way I read about Noah. :) | |
