NASB | 2 Peter 2:5 and did not spare the ancient world, but preserved Noah, a preacher of righteousness, with seven others, when He brought a flood upon the world of the ungodly; |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | 2 Peter 2:5 and if He did not spare the ancient world, but protected Noah, a preacher of righteousness, with seven others, when He brought [the judgment of] a flood upon the world of the ungodly; [Gen 6-8; 1 Pet 3:20] |
Bible Question: Some say Noah preached for 120 years, where do I find that text? |
Bible Answer: 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!
