Gen 7:16 And they that went in, went in male and female of all flesh, as God had commanded him: and the LORD shut him in.
I remember as a kid going very high up on a mountain with my father. One day my dad found a large stone and when he moved the stone, the “rock”, split in two and revealed sea shell impressions fossilized, showing perfectly both sides or mirror images of the shells. My father gave this fossil to my science teacher and it is still on display at my grammar school. How did the wildlife of the sea get way up there? One answer is Noah’s flood.
I took this photo with a Nikon 35mm film camera in Extrema Brazil.
When considering how something happened eons ago, I prefer to rely on the only eye witness to things like how the earth was formed. God was the only One there. The Flood and there is always the debate of whether all of the animals could fit on the ark. But for me, the eye witness is God. I have no problem believing that it happened just like it is written here in Genesis. Most scientists do believe at one time the earth was covered by water.
God closed the 8 people of Noah’s family in the Ark.
One of the details of how the ark was closed did not involve some elaborate mechanism to close this huge door after everyone was aboard. “The Lord shut him in”
In my walk with God, this is the God I know! He is always there for me! Always taking care of even the smallest details of my life. He is not far out there in space, but One that sticks closer than a brother. My present help in time of need.
Jehovah or Yahweh - The Lord closed the door.
