Noah's Flood: Many
Survivors?





























                       Only Eight Flood of Noah survivors?


"Which sometime were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of God
waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing wherein few,
that is, eight souls were saved by water."

                          I Peter 3:20 KJV


"For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to
hell... And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth, a
preacher of righteousness, bringing the flood upon the world of the
ungodly..."

                         II Peter 2:4-5 KJV


At least two separate verse of the Bible seem to clearly state there were
only eight who were saved from Noah's flood (if we notice, the above also
mentions the "angels that sinned" - further proof of these "giants" of
scripture?). Most people, I'm sure, have been taught that only eight people
survived the flood - Noah, his wife, his three sons and their wives.
However, if we look at things in more detail, another possibility may come
about.

First, if you notice, I Peter 3:20 mentions these people in the terms of
souls. The other verse states, "Noah the eighth" - the eighth what? What is
going on? Could it be a certain type of soul? Could this 'eighth' be a certain
type of person? The Bible is truly a book about a specific generation of
human beings, as stated in Genesis:


"This is the book of the generations of Adam. In the day that God
created man, in the likeness of God made he him."

                        Genesis 5:1 KJV


The Bible is clearly saying this is a book which concerns the man, Adam,
and his future generations. It is not saying that those who were born from
the other groups are not important, or do not matter, simply the Bible is an
account of this Adam and his generations - the first Adam in Genesis to the
"last Adam". The last "Adam", the last of the prophecy of Genesis 3:15,
was Jesus (I Corinthians 15:45). The Bible is a book about the trials and
tribulations associated with those appointed people who carried on this
particular seed of Adam (the Israeli people) all the way to the savior, and
beyond.

Since we know the Bible is the story of the descendants who began at
Adam, and passed down through Noah, it is quite possible that these two
verses indeed are telling us the truth, and referring to only eight souls -
Adamic souls. In other words, eight people were saved who came from
the seed of Adam, and only eight.

Noah, as the Bible states, was "perfect" in his generations (Genesis 6:9),
which could mean he was from the seed of Adam, and thats all. Noah was
from the bloodline which had no genes of Cain, the Nephilim, the
Watchers or any other human group of the day (see Birds and Beasts).

After the flood, ancient sources state, Noah built a city. The name of this
city was Themanon - the "City of the Eight". Interestingly enough, the
ancient Arabs also referred to this same word as "City of the Eighty".
Could there have been more survivors to the flood, perhaps up to eighty?
If eight souls of the descendants of Adam, eighty people total, did go
aboard the ark that day, it does seem to explain a lot of unanswered
questions. We recall from Birds and Beasts, there were, possibly, four or
five groups of people on the earth at the time, beyond the children of
Adam (or, the Adamites).

There may have been the Chay (Beasts) of the Field, the Owph (Fowl) of
the Air, the Bahemah, and the Remes (Creeping Thing) that Creepeth,
also on the earth. Could the members (or souls) of these groups have been
allowed to board the ark, as well?


Genesis (KJV)
7:13  "In the selfsame day entered Noah, and Shem, and Ham, and
Japheth, the sons of Noah, and Noah's wife, and the three wives
of his sons with them, into the ark;            
7:14  They, and every Beast (Chay) of the Field after his kind, and all
the cattle (Bahemah) after their kind, and every Creeping Thing
(the Remes) that Creepeth on the earth after his kind, and every
Fowl (Owph) of the Air after his kind, every bird of every sort.
7:15  And they went in unto Noah into the ark... wherein is the breath
of life."


These traditionally could have been the references to Noah and the animals
being led into the ark. But, as you further look into how the Bible lists
these, you'll notice the verses mention the Fowl (Owph) of the Air and
birds separately. If the two names both meant birds, then why separate
the two, unless the Fowl of the Air was the specific name of something?
You'll see, as you read the Bible, these same four groups seem to come
out, again and again:


Genesis (KJV)
7:22  "All in whose nostrils was the breath of life (another translation of
the Hebrew word Chay), of all that was in the dry land, died.
7:23  And every living substance was destroyed which was upon the face
of the ground, both Man (sons of Adam), and Cattle (Bahemah),
and the Creeping Things (Remes), and the Fowl (Owph) of the
Heaven; and they were destroyed from the earth: and Noah only
remained alive, and they that were with him in the ark."











Why does the Bible continually group these in this same way, as a "proper"
name, rather than just say "all the other humans and animals died"?
Another thing that amazes the average reader of the Bible is this: if the
flood destroyed all the Cainites, fallen angels and their offspring before the
flood, why do we still have mention of these same groups after?


"And there we saw the giants (the Nephilim), the sons of Anak (the
Anakim), which come of the giants (the Nephilim): and we were in their
sight as grasshoppers..."

                       Numbers 13:33 KJV


"... So the Kenites (sons of Cain) departed from among the Amalekites."

                         I Samuel 15:6 KJV


How come the descendants of the Nephilim (the Anakim) were around
after the flood? How could have the descendants of Cain survived, along
with similar groups of pre-flood peoples, such as the Amalekites? There
are even giants mentioned by name said to be the last surviving remnants
of the Watchers: Og and Sihon (in Deuteronomy 3:11, Joshua 13:12, and
Numbers 32:33).

There were other giants in the post-flood land, such as Goliath, whose
ancestors somehow survived, to further plague the children of Israel. How?
The Bible states that all living souls died who were not aboard the ark.
Could more souls of the pre-flood era have survived, to make a further
mark on the world with the knowledge and expertise their pre-flood ways
of life that they brought along with them? Legacy of Nimrod will tell us
more.
