Biblical Scholars debate exactly what the wood used by Noah would have been.

Probably from forests destroyed by the flood--maybe wood not in existence today; wood provided by God for this purpose only .

What an investment, hope it proves profitable. Had this been real and loaded with animals, I don’t think I would last more than a couple of days at sea with it. My arms would fall off from shoveling.

I bet the balance shifted as 40 days of food was run through the animals and shoveled overboard!

Think of the variety of foods...

We are all lucky (and should be grateful) that God spared Noah and his family, or we’d never be here now.

A cubit is a length measurement used by Israel in the Old Testament days. It is half a yard.

It’s also a joke on an old Bill Cosby routine...

God: NOAH.

Noah: Is someone calling me?

God: NOAH!!

Noah: Who is that?

God: It’s the Lord, Noah.

Noah: Right ... Where are ya? What do ya want? I’ve been good.

God: I want you to build an ark.

Noah: Right ... What’s an ark?

God: Get some wood and build it 300 cubits by 80 cubits by 40 cubits.

Noah: Right ... What’s a cubit?

about 18 inches...

Think 1 foot 6 inches for each cubit 1 1/2

so 200 cubits would be 300 feet...

I should have posted “Riiiggghhhtt... What’s a cubit?”. I was having fun with an old Bill Cosby routine.
