WorldNetDaily: Could Noah's Ark really hold 2 of every kind?
An actual expedition now intends to find out. Specifically, some of the ice on Mount Ararat has melted, and a large structure is now exposed. Uncannily, this structure's physical dimensions would appear to match those given in the account of Noah's Ark [Genesis 6-8]. This commentary reminds us that a triple-decker barge of such dimensions could indeed have held two of every kind of animal then extant, plus provisions for fifty-two-odd weeks at sea. Previous experiments with proportional ship models have shown that the Ark would not only have been seaworthy but also would have endured the worst of the stormy seas that the Flood must have produced. What will this discovery contribute to the debates on the age of the earth, the truth of the Flood account, and the very truth of Scripture Itself?
