Antiqued Noah's Ark - Two By Two 1 ounce .999 Silver Brilliant Uncirculated round. Noah and the Ark Noah is one of the most important people in the Bible. In a world taken over by evil, violence, and corruption, the Bible reveals him to be a righteous man, blameless among the people of his time. Not only that, but he was also the only follower of God left on Earth. It is difficult to imagine such unwavering faithfulness in the midst of total godlessness, but that is the lesson that Noah's story teaches believers. Over and over again, the Bible states: "Noah did everything just as God commanded." His life of 950 years exemplified obedience. How big did God command Noah's Ark to be built? Was it the biggest vessel humans had ever created or would produce for many years to come? God told Noah to build an Ark that would be big enough to save his family and animals that would not otherwise be able to survive a worldwide flood. The ship was to be 300 cubits long by 50 cubits wide by 30 cubits high (Genesis 6:15). How long, however, is a cubit? An ancient cubit is considered the length between the elbow of an adult male and the tip of their middle finger. Quite a few Biblical scholars, and most Biblical commentaries, believe an ancient cubit was somewhere between 17.5 to 21.5 inches long (44.4 to 54.6 centimeters). This difference of 4 inches (10.1 centimeters) means there is a bit of a range in how big was Noah's Ark and how much volume it possessed. If we conservatively assume the cubit used by Noah was 18 inches (.45 meters), we end up with an Ark that was 450 feet (137 meters) long, 75 feet (22.8 meters) wide, and 45 feet (13.7 meters) high. If we assume a 19 inch (.48 meters) cubit, we end up with a 475 feet (144.8 meters) long, 79.1 feet (24.1 meters) wide, and 47.5 feet (14.4 meters) high Ark that was indeed a big ship!Noah and the Flood During Noah's time, the wickedness of man had covered the earth like a flood. As a result, God commanded a flood of his own, a literal one, in which all the people on Earth would perish. Only Noah and his family would be spared, for it was God's intention for them to restart humanity. To prepare for the upcoming apocalypse, the Lord instructed Noah to build an ark in which he, his family, and two of each animal on earth would be sheltered during the storm. Noah diligently accepted God's call, and never wavered from it. Appropriately mentioned in the "Hall of Faith" in the Book of Hebrews, Noah is considered an exemplar of the Christian faith. Genesis 7:8 The clean and unclean animals, the birds, and everything that crawls along the ground Genesis 7:10 And after seven days the floodwaters came upon the earth. Genesis 7:15 They came to Noah to enter the ark, two by two of every creature with the breath of life. Genesis 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.
