Noah's Ark: Encyclopedia II - Noah's Ark - The ark

According to Genesis, the Ark was built of a mysterious "gopher wood". It has been suggested that it is related to the Hebrew word kopher (pitch), or was at one time kopher but miscopied. If so, it would mean that the Ark was made of wood of a specific tree (that is now unknown) and treated with pitch. The 'resinous wood' prescribed in Genesis 6:14 is thought by some to be cypress or a similar tree. In Noah's part of the world, what is today called cypress was in abundant supply; it was particularly favored for shipbuild ...

Noah's Ark: Encyclopedia - Matsya

Matsya (Fish in Sanskrit) was the first Avatara of Vishnu. According to legend, the king Manu was washing his hands in a river when a little fish swam into his hands and begged him to save it. He put it in a jar, which it soon outgrew; he successively moved it to a tank, a river and then the ocean. The fish then warned him that a Great Flood would occur in a week that would destroy all life. Manu therefore built a boat which the fish towed to a mountaintop when the flood came, and thus ...

Noah's Ark: Encyclopedia - Charles Berlitz

Charles Frambach Berlitz (November 20, 1914, New York City - December 18, 2003) was an author known for his books about anomalous phenomena. Many of the "facts" cited in his books are considered highly questionable by people who looked up the incidents in question. For example, Larry Kusche found that some ships claimed by Berlitz to have sunk in the Bermuda Triangle sank somewhere else, others did not even exist, and for still others, the weather was not as sunny as Berlitz said. He was the grandson of Maximilien Berlitz (Maximilian), and ...

Noah's Ark: Encyclopedia - Yima

In Zoroastrianism, Yima, son of Vivanghat, was the first mortal man to converse with the great god Ahura Mazda. Yima - Myths of Yima. According to Zarathustra's second Fargard, Ahura Mazda asks Yima, a good shepherd, to receive his law and bring it to men. However, Yima refuses, and so Ahura Mazda charges him with a different mission; to rule over and nourish the earth, to see that the living things prosper. This Yima accepts, and Ahura Mazda presents him with "a golden seal and a poniard (da ...

Noah's Ark: Encyclopedia - All You Zombies song

"All You Zombies" is a song by The Hooters on their second album Nervous Night released in 1985. The song stems from the stories of Moses receiving the Ten Commandments and Noah's Ark in the Old Testament of the Bible, and the fact that in both stories the people had rejected higher guidance. Some suggest that the song is a religious allegory on the unenlightened, warning them of what is to come if they do not accept the word of God, while others believe that the tune was written first and the lyrics only added because they fit. The song was performed by the ba ...

Noah's Ark: Encyclopedia - Cessair

In Irish mythology, Cessair (or Ceasair) was the leader of the first inhabitants of Ireland before the Biblical Flood, in what may be a Christianisation of a legend that pre-dates the conversion, but may alternatively be the product of post-conversion pseudohistory. She was daughter of Noah's son Bith and his wife Birren. According to legend, when her father was denied a place in the ark by Noah, Cessair advised him to build an idol. This idol advised them that they could escape the Deluge in a ship. Cessair, along with ...

Noah's Ark: Encyclopedia - Wives aboard the Ark

Although Genesis tells us next to nothing about the four women aboard the Ark, who had witnessed the days before the Flood, there exist substantial extra-biblical traditions regarding these women and their names. According to ancient traditions, the wives of Shem, Ham and Japheth, the sons of Noah, enjoyed fantastically long lifespans, living for centuries, while speaking prophecy to each generation they saw come and go. They were reputed to be known as Sibyls, original authors of the corpus of texts known to the Mediterranean ...
