Noah And The King, Tubal-Cain
One aspect I found particularly interesting in the movie Noah was the relationship of Ham and the King, Tubal-Cain. I believe their relationship was intended to be a parallel between the relationship of Eve and the serpent. The serpent influenced Eve to eat the fruit from the tree of knowledge of good and bad. By doing this Eve defied God. With Ham, Tubal- Cain influenced Ham to defy Noah who, in a way, represented God in the movie. Tubal-Cain persuaded Ham in eating one of the clean animals meant for repopulating the earth. He also convinced Ham to lead Noah to his death because Noah didn’t save Na’el and Noah was determined to kill Shem’s twin daughters. Eve’s curiosity and defiance of God’s Word exhibited humanistic qualities. Ham exhibited

    Summary Of Octavia Butler's 'Amnesty'

    Although Noah makes a good argument for and is a clear example supporting that decision, the fear of the differences observed between them and the Communities secludes them from realizing the possibility; it is from such people that Noah is secluded and made ‘othered’, much in the same way people of colonized societies may be for associating with persons believed to be their…

    A Thematic Analysis Of Noah's Five Foundations

    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:…

    Summary Of 'Noah' By Joel Spring

    Noah talks about colonization in his presentation. He describes how the British just came into India and declared that they were taking over the land. Noah has a lighter take on this subject as compared to other readings in this class. Noah puts a more comedic side to how Indians react to the British coming in and declaring that they rule them. While other authors, such a Joel Spring talk about the hard truth of taking over people’s land. Spring talks about the hardships that people had to face when conquers came into their native land.…

    Chapter Summary: The Bible Among the Myths

    Oswalt first learned about the issues in “The Bible Among the Myths” while taking a class taught by Dennis Kinlaw at Asbury Theological Seminary. His interest in the subject has grown since with graduate study and his own classes which he taught. William F. Albright, his students, and G. Ernest Wright led the rethinking of the evolutionary paradigm within the philosophy of Idealism. Although they believed the differences between the ways the Israelites thought and their neighbor’s thoughts of reality caused no evolutionary explanation to show, today it is found that Israelite faith can be explained by evolutionary change. Scholars today say that it is no longer about the differences between the two, but more about the similarities. Oswalt believed this was due to previous theological and philosophical convictions and not a change in data. From the 1950’s on, this change became hard for people to accept because it meant that we did not have control of our lives, and could not fend for ourselves.…

    Noah's Ark: Genetic Differences In Genesis

    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…

    Epic of Gilgamesh Compare to Noah

    Being a man of religious background, specifically Roman Catholic, I began read the tablets of Gilgamesh skeptically. However I did notice a significant difference between the Genesis chapters 6 through 9 and the Epic of Gilgamesh. The story of Noah as written in the Holy Bible, under Genesis was written as I believe within a society that carried very strong morals. A belief in something bigger than themselves; and their belief in that one thing was called God. A God that was merciful and compassionate, yet vengeful, in regards to his creation known as mankind. In regards to Noah’s story, God was to banish the word of all creatures including man for the violence state that they had become. In the essence of gender relations, it’s stated in Genesis that God saw how beautiful women were created as the daughters of men. It also mentions how God saved the life of one man and his family from a flood that was to be the end of one Generation, the original generation that got out of control in God’s eyes and the beginning of a fresh start. I also feel that the society, in which the accounts of the bible were written, was one of insecurity and redemption. Maybe the bible was like a code of conduct, with examples in which one at the time could refer too. That there were consequences, to ones actions, however through the act of redemption one could be saved, and forgiven by a merciful God. I don’t see vast examples of gender relations in this story for it speaks between man and God directly.…

    The Epic of Gilgamesh and the Hebrew Bible

    Both the Hebraic and Sumerian accounts of the flood share many of the same elements. For example, the gods directly warn a select few of the impending flood, an ark is built upon the gods’ requests, and both Noah and Utanapishtim are granted immortal qualities—Noah living for more than 600 years, and Utanapishtim living forever. However, the gods in the stories behave in entirely different ways. The Sumerian gods in the Epic of Gilgamesh are often at odds with each other, rendering themselves incapable of acting as a unit. The Hebraic God in The Book of Genesis in The Hebrew Bible possesses the necessary superiority to be an all-powerful leader to humankind.…

    Comparing Smiting In Egypt And Noah's Ark

    The Egyptian, Destruction of Mankind, which was found in the tombs of 5 different Pharaohs can easily be compared to the story of Noah’s Ark, in the Judeo-Christian tradition. The similarities between them include themes such as smiting, finding favor within humankind, and a flood. Although these themes are similar, the significance of how these two cultures interpreted them could have been different.…

    Another falsehood occursin the Testament whenSatan in the form of a snakeor serpent in conversation with Eve, convincing her to eat out of the tree (pg). Factually, no animal has ever to a human, no one person can damn all people. It is questionable that would appear as an animal is very much feared by people, a snake, and still is able to convince Eve to eat from the fruit.…

    Next, God as a loving partner and God as a warrior are compatible with Noah and the Flood. As a loving partner, God allowed Noah to preach for 120 years about the flood (Genesis 6:3). This gave the people sufficient amount of time to harken to the words of Noah. Everyone had a chance to trust Noah and be saved. God showed compassion towards Noah by…

    A Journey Through the Old Testament

    The first 39 books of the larger work called the Bible, is called the Old Testament. The Bible itself is arguably the best selling and most read book of all time, yet it’s well known to be quite challenging to read through and understand. The Old Testament portion of the Bible, notably the most difficult portion of the Bible for most to study and follow, yields 39 books from multiple authors, and spans over 4000 years of crucial world and church history. If that were not enough to take on, the Old Testament comes our way through multiple styles of authorship and formats, including but not limited to, books of history, law, proverbs, ethics, philosophy, treatises, dramas, songs, epics, biographies, and letters. There have been many books written and published to survey, explain, and/or bring to light the Old Testament, but none more helpful to me than the review subject of this paper, the work of Dr. Elmer L. Towns, entitled “A Journey Through the Old Testament”.…

    The Stowaway by Julian Barnes

    The woodworm brings to our attention Noah’s blind arrogance very early in the story. Noah made decisions and would not change his position even when it was brought to his attention that there were other points of view that might be better than his. As the text of the story itself says, “Animals of a speculative bent began to propound rival selection principals, based on beast size or utility rather than mere number; but Noah loftily refused to negotiate. He was a man who had his little theories, and he didn’t want anyone else’s”. (Barnes 8) This demonstrates the woodworm’s dislike for Noah’s lack of consideration of other’s feelings. Noah made up his mind about how he was going to select the animals for the ark. He would not consider alternative selection criteria. He refused to listen to the pleas of the animals to reconsider his decision, believing that his methods were best. This shows Noah’s flaw of egocentrism.…
