1 | 120 years??? | 2 Pet 2:5 | Morant61 | 218659 | ||
Greetings Humility! This statement is a combination of Scripture and a few assumptions. 2 Peter 2:5 tells us that Noah was a preacher of righteousness. Gen. 7:6 tells us that Noah was 600 years old when he entered the ark. The assumptions are: 1) Gen. 6:3 means that God spared the world for 120 years while Noah built the ark. 2) That Noah preached righteousness during those 120 years. I hope this helps! Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

Hiya Humility, **I think you would benefit greatly from reading the entire chapter 6 of Genesis** Genesis 6:3 does mention that God was allotting mankind 120 more years before he brought the flood. Genesis 6:8-12 brings out that during that 120 years the opportunity for Noah and his wife to have three sons and for these to grow up and marry three girls happened. It wasn't until Genesis 6:13 that God told Noah about the end coming and that there was a need to build the ark and preach about the coming destruction. And Genesis 6:18 helps to show that God had not told Noah that until after his sons had married. I hope this information makes since :-) |
