Ellen Lloyd - AncientPages.com - Mention the name Noah and most people will say they remember he was the man in the Bible who built an ark and saved himself, his family, and a number of animals from the Great Flood that he had been warned about by God. The story of Noah who at the time of the Deluge was 600 years old appears in the Hebrew Bible, in the Book of Genesis, chapters 5–9.
The story of Noah's ark is not just a Biblical story. Noah was known under a different name in India, among ancient Egyptians and Native Americans, just to mention a few cultures.
Some of the details of the Noah story seem mythical, so many biblical scholars believe the story of Noah and the Ark was inspired by the legendary flood stories of nearby Mesopotamia, in particular, "The Epic of Gilgamesh."
Though many still question the Biblical flood myth, there are scientists who are convinced the story of Noah’s ark and the Great Flood was based on real events. However, as intriguing as these events are, we will not focus our attention on Noah’s attempt to escape the Deluge. Instead, this time, we will discuss Noah’s supernatural origin. As we continue to explore Biblical mysteries, we will try and unravel why there is reason to assume Noah was no ordinary human being. We will also discuss Noah’s strange and often overlooked connection with the red-skinned giants and the Watchers.
The Bible is full of fascinating accounts and when we read between the lines and study certain passages in more detail, we can discover some Biblical figures may not be those we thought they were.
