When Jesus referred to the “days of Noah” it was not part of a parable.

I’m shocked that someone as smart as you always tell us you are doesn’t know that.

After all, we are discussing a statement by your Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ!

I didn't say it was. I said that the account of Genesis was a parable that was tied to the Sabbath.

Do you deny that Jesus said he would teach using parable?

Does a parable have to be actually true in order to convey an essential truth?

If you concentrate on the minutiae of trying to scientifically determine the correctness of the parable, you miss out on the essential truth that it is attempting to convey to you.
