Noah
Noah is a significant figure in the Abrahamic religions, including Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. He is most famous for the biblical story of the Great Flood, in which he builds an ark to save his family and a pair of each animal species from a divine deluge.
Biblical Account
In the Book of Genesis, Noah is described as a righteous man who walked with God. When God saw the wickedness of man, He decided to destroy all life. However, Noah found favor with God, who instructed him to build an ark and fill it with a male and female of every animal species. Noah, his wife, his sons, and their wives were the only humans saved from the flood.
In Other Religions
In Islam, Noah, or Nuh, is considered one of the five main prophets. The Quran recounts a similar story of the flood but includes additional details, such as Noah's pleading with his son to board the ark.
Interpretations and Symbolism
Noah's story has been interpreted in many ways, often as a cautionary tale about divine punishment for wickedness. The ark has become a symbol of salvation and covenant between God and humanity.
