It’s got really WEIRD dimensions too.

It’s surprising how much we assume. We don’t know where the ark was built (Seashore? Mountain peak?), and while a fairly common bumper-sticker claims Noah was an amateur, the lack of complete design specs leads me to think he was a shipwright who could fill in the details. Then there’s the matter of scope: Global? Regional? Local? I grew up assuming global, but the context and phrasing strongly imply regional.

ARK – Acts of Random Kindness

As long as it floats, I guess.

Well, Noah, whatever floats your boat……

what’s a cubit?

for your consideration: science channel show had segment that concluded that Noah could have transported all the animals in the Ark, if what he was carrying was their DNA

It’s the elephants fault

“Elephants, rhinos, and hippos on the BOTTOM!”

Where’s that “blasphemy” guy?

So Noah’s relationship with the big guy wasn’t on an even keel?

Frisky Elephants…

It looks like that boat should be easy to rock.

Maybe Noah had horse sense but little common sense.

" Rock the Ark, Don’t Rock The Ark Baby/ Rock the Ark, Don’t Tip the Ark Over"

Everyone is fallible.
