"ha eretz does NOT necessarily mean the entire earth. there are many biblical scholars who at least hold open the option that the flood was not the entire WORLD but the entire LAND"
OK, close your eyes for a moment. Now imagine being on the beach, the "land" next to the ocean. Now imagine several cubits of water covering the beach and the ocean not rising.
