What IS an Ark

Genesis 6: 14-22

Details Details Details – building the Ark, Getting the people and animals and even a bit of discussion on the smells!

There was comparisons between the ark of Noah and the ark of Moses (when he was a baby)

How is an ark different from a boat? - no propulsion...

This is a miraculous tale. A story of mercy and compassion.

There was much discussion about the ‘windows’ and the ‘light’ in the ark.
And the requirement of light in the synagogue as well was noted.

Water is a significant topic as well and it parallels the earlier creation story.

Then a reflection on death and the term ‘perish’ and how it is interpreted here.
