Noah follows the 5-Part foundations in all ways God intends him to. It all starts with the Preamble: God didn’t send a warning; he had Noah warn the people for him, but the people didn’t listen. For over 120 years Noah’s neighbors could have trusted and believed in God, but they would not listen to what he had to say. On the other hand, Noah did listen to God, and he did everything God told him to do in order to survive. This is an example of Noah have trust in God and understanding God’s greatness. The Historical Prologue is the second foundation: Noah understood that he was blessed. “Then God blessed Noah and his sons, saying to them, "Be fruitful and increase in number and fill the earth.” The next foundation is the Ethnical Stipulations:…
Genesis 6:7-8 reads, “7 So the Lord said, ‘I will wipe from the face of the earth the human race I have created—and with them the animals, the birds and the creatures that move along the ground—for I regret that I have made them.’ 8 But Noah found favor in the eyes of the Lord” (The Holy Bible). This scripture introduces the well-known story of Noah’s Ark. God sent forty days and forty nights of non-stop rain to wipe out the sin-ridden humans and purify the Earth. One male and one female from every animal species and the family of Noah would be spared in order to repopulate the Earth. There has been much debate over the existence of such an event even though versions have been recorded in many cultures and languages. Some say that the bible’s…
God chose a righteous man to build an ark because of great flooding happening. In both stories they both have an account from all species of animals were to be on the ark , and the birds were used after the rains to determine the flood waters. In the stories of Genesis and Gilgamesh both of them had arks the only difference of the arks were that Noah’s ark was rectangular and utnapishtim's was square. Both of the arks had a single door and at least one window . Genesis flooding was fourth days and nights while Gilgamesh flood was much shorter being six days and nights . In the story there was a righteous man who was directed to build an ark to save a limited and select group of people now the difference was that Noah had received his directly from a God and Utnapishtim came from a…
The Story of Noah’s Ark and The Story of the Great Flood are very alike in many ways. They both distinct characteristics of the ark, or person, the events that took place are also parallel to each other. The Sumerian version of the story is in The Epic of Gilgamesh, the Hebrew/Christian version of the flood story is told in the book of Genesis .In both cases God chose an honorable men that he thought would be capable of carrying out the task. A verse form the bible expresses one of the reasons God choice Noah, “Noah was a righteous man, blameless in his generation; Noah walked with God. (Genesis6:9). The Gods must have thought Utnapishtim was also a great and honorable man because Ea appeared in his dream and warned him about the flood. Both Noah and Utnapishtis’s families were also saved from the flood. “The Lord saw that the wickedness of humankind was great...” (Genesis 6:5) “The uproar of mankind is intolerable…” (Gilgamesh 108) In both stories The God/s wanted to flood the world because of the…
He found this nice man he liked named Noah so he asked him to do a favor for him. “Go into the ark, you and your whole family, because i have found you righteous in this generation.” God also asked him to take animals each and every kind, male and female. Then God flooded earth for a hundred and fifty days and it took almost a year for the water to dry up. God said he would never do this tragedy again.…
The reasons that the Gods sent the flood and the aftermath of the construction of the arc in both stories make the plot line go hand in hand but the concepts separate them. In the Biblical story, God had seen that the wickedness of man was great in the earth and that the earth was corrupted with violence. Therefore, he sent the flood to purify the corrupted flesh of the earth. God then found Noah and commanded him to build an arc simply because of how honorable of a man he was. Noah then uses the arc to protect his family and every living thing of flesh. God did that to repopulate the earth once the wrath had been completed. Then, God made a covenant to man agreeing to never punish mankind in such a harsh manner again. In Gilgamesh, 5 Gods took an oath to keep the plan of flooding the earth a secret. They were going to exterminate the human race to punish them for the sins they had committed. One of the Gods, Ea, broke the oath and told Utnapishtim to build a ship in order to save his life. Utnapishtim then made an arc and boarded it with all the animals of the world so he could, too, repopulate the…
Abraham - God made a covenant with him (story of Abraham: pg. 128) (J, C, I)…
In Hebrew Scripture, Noah believes in only one god making him monotheistic. Another difference between the stories is the reaction of Enlil and God after the flood has taken place. When Enlil discovered Utnapishtim has survived the flood, he is furious and demands to know who is responsible for saving him. Ea takes responsibility and accuses Enlil of bringing about a harsh, unnecessary genocide. In Genesis, things go differently. God takes full responsibility of the flood, admits that it served no purpose, and promises to never destroy all of Earth again.…
The Cardiopulmonary Department focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of heart and lung conditions.One example of a heart conditoin is a myocardial infarctions, more commonly known as heart attacks, are typically caused by a blood clot in the coronary artery which can restrict blood flow, this in turn can cause the heart’s pumping function to decrease ( Heart Attack. 2017). An example of a cardiovascular condition is a cerebrovascular accident (CVA), or a stroke, is caused by lack of bloodflow to the brain, often caused by a blood clot or a hemorrhaging. Another branch to this is atherosclerosis, a condition where there is plaque build up in the arteries. Atherosclerosis can cause a decrease in blood flow to the heart and other vital…
It was important for God to reveal himself through covenant because it gives the people a chance to make decisions and to work towards something. He promises us eternal life if we keep his commandments. There are covenants throughout the whole bible.…
God at this point in the bible is displeased in his people so to punish them he is going to flood the earth, but he wanted Noah to live because he was favorable to God. God tells Noah to build an ark with certain measurements and to cover it in pitch. When the ark was created Noah filled it with every animal that lived on land so they could prosper after. When the flood comes it covers the whole earth killing everyone not on the Ark. Noah released birds to tell if the water has retreated and when one of his birds finds olive leaf he makes an altar and makes a sacrifice.…

In Genesis 9:1-17, an agreement between God and Noah and his seed after him is established. The agreement begins after the flooding of the Earth and God’s makes an agreement that he will not flood the Earth again due to man’s disobedience. The covenant…
Hebrew religion consisted of a single omnipotent god, Yahweh, while the Mesopotamians and Egyptians had multiple gods who each controlled their own section in nature. This means that the Hebrews only had to follow orders from one god, whereas Mesopotamians and Egyptians had to work hard to keep all of the gods happy. If what one god’s orders conflicted with another god’s orders, the people were forced to take sides, and unity would break. This could cause disputes amongst the two sides, and war could potentially break out. Alongside monotheism, the covenant also plays a major role in the structure of Hebrew religion. It is a pact that Abraham made with Yahweh, which both Yahweh and the Hebrew people had to follow. In exchange for land, a great nation, and guidance, the people had to worship Yahweh as their only god. This covenant keeps the Hebrews united, all following one god and one message, instead of listening to a whole pantheon of gods, all with different…
