What does the Bible say about Noah and the flood?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible presents Noah's flood as a factual event reflecting God's judgment upon a sinful world.

The account of Noah and the flood is found in Genesis chapters 6-9. It illustrates God's unwavering judgment against sin and His providential care in saving Noah and his family. The flood is viewed as a significant marker of divine judgment, emphasizing that due to humanity's pervasive wickedness, God decided to cleanse the earth through this cataclysmic event. Jesus Himself affirmed the reality of the flood in Matthew 24 and Luke 17, linking it to the future judgment during His second coming. Thus, the narrative underscores the theme of salvation through Christ, as Noah's Ark serves as a typological representation of Christ, who offers deliverance from future judgment.
