Heres what they don't want you to know about Noahs flood/ark with Dr. Robert M. Price

the real Noah's Flood is this the real account you find it here in the Bible Genesis that Noah's Flood did it really occur is it based off a local flood is it worldwide has anyone really found the ark where did this story come from you're gonna see how Noah's story actually comes from other sources and is not original to the Bible dr. Robert in price is going to take us into these key details that show some interesting pagan parallels I hope you guys like this if you like this channel subscribe like and share this content drop a comment down below your opinion and your thoughts on Noah's Ark and the flood all the animals is this a celestial flood is this on earth you tell me we are myth vision welcome back all you heretics and you 10 file hat-wearing crazy people who've been following this crazy guy named Derek and this crazier guy named dr. Robert NER price we're gonna bring you more heresies make sure you guys get baptized and all this stuff cuz I hate to say it but it's so much more fun now than what it was when I was in church should be an honest so we have an issue with with pagan parallels right we it's not an issue for us but it might be for someone else so I want to go into Noah can you can you go ahead and take us through the flood of the of the entire earth right I mean dinosaurs were on the ark kangaroos somehow made it to Australia and you know they're being burned right now it sucks for them right now you know I wish there was a boat that just landed on the shore there they could get on and who knows you know so we hit Adam pretty good I like that conversation and you've got some stuff that's gonna overlap I'm sure but whose Nullah is this a guy like this is the true story right this is the real flood story all the other ones are just you know copies as Christian say of the true one which is this one in the Bible this reminds me of to show you how long I've been a heretic when I was in high school I guess and in our church youth group they made the mistake of putting me in charge of the bulletin board and so just to jazz it up a bit I did a cartoon and tacked it up it didn't stay up for long in the cartoon if there's Moses in his tent writing out the Pentateuch I mean that's already fundamentalist right that mosaic authorship but he's writing and he pauses and Aaron s brother is readin over his shoulder and he's no Moses says Aaron have you spelled the name of the guy that built the ark wasn't it UT in AP i sh t i m and and and he says that's almost right Moses but there's no a in it and he says okay the children of Israel will never be able to remember a name like this what was they said no a and a terrible joke but that it was gone pretty fast putting a piston was the Babylonian Noah I already knew that and was corrupted but who the heck was Noah and why was there flood well of course it's a matter of the whole darn human race having become corrupted through sin and God decides he's going to wipe them all out and start over with Noah you don't do one that's worth so I'm gonna show you how to build this Ark and that take breeding stock along with you to repopulate the animal species and take your family along and that'll be at everybody else's about to die and so he he does and that takes a long time but he builds this huge arc or box it would have been a huge rectangle like a footlocker or something I don't think it's mentions it having a prow like the arc on TV and those commercials I just love that commercial they're trying to tell you the beat arc really happened it really existed it's not just some silly kids story and how is this conveyed by a bunch of talking giraffes who even they have trouble believing this so that kid giraffe convinces the parent giraffes to go see the thing and sure enough there it is talking about mixed messages anyway so God sends the flood it wipes out everybody and and all the animals and he sends out a couple of birds to see if the coast is clear and the waters receded and and and finally they have so they get out and offer a sacrifice to God I guess a sacrifice to thank him for saving them I don't know if it says that and then he promises well I'm not gonna fly off the handle and kill everybody again though it's clear that nothing has changed the heart of the imagination of man is only evil and that hasn't changed but I guess I'll have to live with it a fascinating turn of events well this is on let's see how to approach this there are two versions of this in Genesis that are stitched together the the priestly version and and that's the one that has the the flood lasts a year and and ten days I think the flood is the result of the the subterranean Oh on which the flatter floats breaking up and gushing up and drowning the earth and the windows of heaven and the solid bald open and the water cascades down and in this one also Noah takes two of every animal species in well I'm sure anybody that has bothered to read this at all closely notices that it is extremely redundant and repetitive I mean the priestly author is always repetitive but this really takes the cake and it has these contradictions how long did the flood last is shorter in in one verse longer in another how many animals did he take well in one he takes seven of the kosher animals but seven pairs and one pair of each non kosher animal I pigs and so forth and so what's the deal there and and is it just rain that causes the flutter is it the destruction of the earth basically lighten both sides of the ocean in well here's a place where the higher criticism solves the problem there were two different flood story circulating in Israel they didn't agree on everything especially numbers it's like the to feeding stories in mark did he really do this twice and the the disciples didn't know what to expect the second I know it's as a result of the the editor not wanting to leave any sacred material out because he'd sure be he get a lot of criticism if he did hey where's my favorite version of the story but what and the same thing with the two creation stories the Garden of Eden and the seven-day creation they're not harmonized they're just plunked - they're side by side why didn't they do it like mark did with the feeding why didn't they do that the flood story well the both flood stories end with God saying I'm never gonna do again so if you just put one after the other and God says okay I'd learn - I'm not gonna do this again and then whammo he floods them out they couldn't obviously they couldn't do that so they decided to just sort of cut the things apart and splice them together and and it kind of works but it leaves these conflicting details but this these were not the only ancient versions of the flood story there are loads of them and all over the world I mean ones that the writers couldn't even have known about what accounts for that role there really was a worldwide flood no almost all of them are told in civilizations that are right on rivers which tells you that of course rivers flood at one time or another and if your whole settlement is destroyed this may grow in the telling to be a world destroying flood because it was your world that drowned so that's no big deal but there were devastating floods in the Middle East there was one I think 3200 BC and so yeah they're there based on one or more ancient floods there uh well and that decimated their world but there is the Gilgamesh epic for one and I already mentioned this last time with Adam when gibble kamesh is trying to raise his friend and Keaton from the dead he figures that the his best bet for finding a way to do it would be to look up the guy that survived the flood with his his family their servants and the animals put in a piston he was given immortality by the gods who warned him about the flood once he had done what they suggested they made him an immortal and he lives beneath the crust of the earth and great cavern and so Gilgamesh takes this long voyage to a meet with him and and he tells him what to do and so forth but that's another part of a story so uh Tana piston was given instructions by the gods a symbol of the God eeeyah who liked him and said hey I got a big bulletin for you the gods are disgusted with humanity they're gonna drown everybody but I want you to survive so here's what you do the Ark he tells them to build is a huge cube with several floors but it's the same basic idea and he survives the blood with his family and they send out a couple of birds for reconnaissance they come back coast is clear he offers a sacrifice to the goddess or aru and you know how Jehovah puts his bow in the sky the rainbow it's the he's a warrior and a storm God so they figured lightning that was the arrows that he shot from his war bow and so he's saying ok I'm hanging up the gloves now I'm putting my piece I'm putting my bow in the sky I won't come after you again and if they had a different version of it in battle and in the Gilgamesh epic because a Ruru says look I'm taking off my jewel necklace and I'm gonna drape it over the sky so whenever the rainbow appears it was their theory about it these people weren't stupid primitives by the way it took ingenuity to come up with this stuff they simply couldn't have known what the rainbow actually was but they knew there must be a cause and so they came up with this I was like to say and the ancients weren't stupid they were very ingenious they just didn't have technology ok but their ingenuity eventually led to that ok yeah so this is obviously just it has features paralleled in both of the J and P versions of the Bible well in in the Greek version there's some startling parallels to this in this case it's a guy named Deucalion and and I believe it's Poseidon who appears to him and said that the gods are about to fly the world here build a Ark only this one is literally a chest it's just he they don't bring the animals along in this one it's just the two of them and a big big chest a big trunk kind of and they do survive it and to repopulate the earth once it's over they're told to to scatter the bones of their mother and they realize it's a riddle that must mean them the earth is their mother and the bones of the earth must be the stones and so they get out and start picking up stones and throwing them around and where they land they turn into humans and the world was repopulated in that way and by the way Deucalion goes on to invent wine interesting well that makes me think I do you not think that God can turn these stones and the sons of God I mean or you know this is interesting so okay that's based on a Hebrew pun Benny like Ben so-and-so Ben Laden whatever it sons and stones a Benny like Ebenezer stone of hell and so John the Baptist is saying God can raise up sons of Abraham from these stones if that's all he wants and so yeah it's no doubt there was a similar thing there in it's the Greek lie us the people and lithos rock and so they they do we now we got to go back a step to what led to the the flood in this version of it because let's see there is a story that is also strikingly parallel to something in Genesis and originally must have been there must have been a Hebrew version of it that has now been displaced how how come God decided to do well in the Greek one Zeus announces his intention to destroy the earth because the Polanski ins live on some mountain they're cannibals and how does he know this well in he's going to destroy it the earth I guess he figures they're pretty evil from what he hear so Hermes appears to them and says wait you don't want to do that give them a chance let's at least find out if these scurrilous rumors are true so Zeus and Hermes assumed mortal guys and go down to visit various people and and this is of course where acts gets the thing about they think that Barnabas is Zeus and Paul is Hermes it's from that myth okay so the two of them go to the king I guess of the Pulaski uns and they're wined and dined they don't know they are and they give him their they give this big feast but it turns out the the meal that is being served is the slaughtered son of the king Shakespeare picked this up too and so they're cannibals and so okay and that's one strike against humanity but let's take a look then he goes to the house of this old desperately poor couple balcan and Philemon and they don't know they are they're just the strangers we got virtually nothing but let's get to share what we have with them and they noticed that the they're like the dregs of wine and a pitcher well strangely and I thought that's all there was but they keep pour in the line and as it's consumed that the thing doesn't go down there's still more wine in it and finally they say this is very odd you gotta sweeten be gods would you cuz yeah we are and he says we wanted to see how you would filled with those strangers and of course you know you're entertaining angels unawares Hebrews says and so okay that's one in favor the human race then they and they promise them that they will become they they're turned into trees so they can live longer and they will become pillars in a temple of zeus to honor them and this is in revelation 2 right I'll make them pillars of the temple of my god and and so forth ok so they they make one of us it is but this one they don't get a good reception and two out of three Zeus is going to flood him and and so they do and despite Hermes best attempts they're flooded but they Poseidon does tell ditalion and Pyrrha well this of course parallels the lot and Sodom and Gomorrah story right God has heard that the people of Sodom Gomorrah and the suburbs are terribly wicked and he's gonna destroy him but he wants to be fair he's brought these two angels with him to go check it out and exactly as with Zeus and Hermes and they of course you know what happens a lot like Bacchus and Philemon welcomes them in come on in I wouldn't know who you are you're hungry sit down but they get there besieged by this mob of degenerates who are xenophobes I don't I get from who often another tangent but there's nothing about sex and the thing the idea that it's the gay caucus of Sodom was ridiculous why did a lot who lives there must know who they are and he says hey look leave these two guys alone here's my virgin daughters you can rape the heck out of him do as you please but I can't turn them over to you why would he think these gays would be interested in his daughter for pete's sake so it's happy but they're xenophobes to bring the men out without to us we want to know them but that just means that foreigners and they don't like outsiders and so he and a lot we think he's the Vil and they wouldn't have thought so because the idea is that that though what he's suggesting is horrific the idea of turning people whom you've given shelter over to a howling lynch mob you can't do that the hospitality was one of the highest virtues this was necessary for everybody so at any rate we're supposed to understand a lot to be the good guy and what happens well the angels say ok that's it that proves the point at this place it's gonna get new to get your family and get out of here and and so he tells his sons his the future sons-in-law and they say it crazy old man ok it's your funeral and he brings his daughters with him and his wife but the wife is thinking about the new blender she just bought back in a kitchen no and she doesn't wanna gotta see Time Bandits sometimes and so she is caught in the conflagration she is encompassed by a pillar of mold and rock salt from the eruptions and dies and so it's just a lot and the two daughters now and they finally take refuge in a mountain cave quiet a mountain cave well you begin to think this what really happened originally in the story was a devastating flood so they're trying to get the higher ground and then the daughters are saying you know there's nobody left to impregnate us we had a couple of fiance's but they're gone how about dad and so they get him drunk and somehow he has an erection and is able to impregnate both of them on the spot and what do they say there's no man on earth to come in unto us this has to be a part of the original flood story and so if you put those two together you can see what happened but they did get rid of that as the preface to the flood story what did they put in there instead they needed they felt they needed some explanation to how the human race and gun corrupt so they used another piece of ancient mythology that they could no longer use in its original form and this was the impregnation of mortal women by the sons of God the lesser gods of the Pantheon had like 70 or so each one was given a thief to mature rule well some of them saw these women and I think the Ebru says they're the common rule of of a vulva and decided to have a dating service and so they impregnated them and the result were the Nephilim which might mean the fallen ones nobody sure and they in later mythology became the the progenitors of the demons but there there were demigods the mighty men that were of old who would have included Goliath Samson Gilgamesh Nimrod and so you know how Nimrod got his name and how it came oh how it came to mean stupid idiot it's because of a Bugs Bunny cartoon when Elmer Fudd is going out with a shotgun and his hunting out this hunting the why but and and and it looks ridiculous in Bugs Bunny says look at this little Nimrod well in those days in the 40s or whatever people understood Nimrod was the great hunter and so he said look at the little hunter well later generations who watched Bugs Bunny thought Oh Nimrod must mean stupid but it did so he was one of the great superheroes of the antics and let's see so they the great heroes were descended from men what's this got to do with the plot well originally the story was an ethnological myth it was an attempt to explain the characteristics of a particular ethnic group the the who were referred to variously in the Old Testament as the ref fame and the honor came and they they were supposed to be like that when Joshua and Caleb in these guys when they come back from surveying the Promised Land is a tear go in there these guys are giants we're like grasshoppers compared to that Manso well how tall were they we find out oddly enough in second Samuel when it says that Goliath and his buddies were so many cubits tall works out to nine and a half feet tall but according to the Dead Sea Scrolls in the Septuagint no they were six and a half feet tall but that's pretty darn tall for the ancient world look at a museum even the suits of armor they're pretty shrimpy they didn't have a meat diet so much like we do so um why were these guys so tall well it gives us a hint unwittingly in the the samuel story it says they each had six fingers and six toes well it means they were pituitary fries which means they're huge and had extra digits and so I mean that's probably the origin of the idea but that's not good enough so they once the sons of God were sacrificed to monotheism they couldn't admit that there were all these gods so they had to retool them as fallen angels and the idea of em impregnating mortal women oh no that was too primitive and see blasphemous and so they said okay these are fallen angels they shouldn't have impregnated these women and in the book of Jubilees look Avena if you got these stories about how they taught the evil arts of war and cosmetics and stuff like this so that was the origin of evil when the human race not Eden the Jews never took that to be the origin of sin because it wasn't it was about a whole different issue but this was this is what poisoned the human race and so what they did was to say hey this would explain why the imagination of the heart of man is only evil continually the half-demon and so God's got to wipe him out and so he he does and the one righteous guy Noah he and his family are saved well this is kind of weird there's a sequel to Noah and the Ark right Noah invents wine and apparently he's the first tiller of the soil it says and so he he creates wine he doesn't know what effect that's gonna have of course that's kind of stupid if he knew the fermented he'd probably know but he is so he's bombed he's sitting naked in his tent watching TV he dozes off and one of his sons comes as is that dad Oh holy mackerel I can it have been unusual for family members to see each other naked back at that time Mel awakes and he goes and gets his brothers and sis dad's indisposed let's get a blanket and walk backwards so we don't see him and drape the blanket over and when he woke up and knew what they had done to him he called the men and curses Kanan the son of Han one of the three brothers Shem ham and Japheth and he says your descendents are gonna be the slaves of the descendants of your two brothers it's like they're confusing ham and Canaan in the story and I don't say a minute what was it they did that got a mad mad the ancient rabbis already knew something had been censored out of a story because it was too disgusting and the theories are that that ham or Canaan had snuck off and had sex with his own mother because in Leviticus it warns against in and it says you shall not uncover the nakedness of your mother or father etc which means have sex with them so that would make sense but you'd kind of expect Noah would simply have killed his son if that had happened and another one was that oh that they had sodomized him because that kind of fits were the weird sex things the the Canaanites supposedly did but I think that'd be like the scene in Pulp Fiction with Marcellus and the guy and they wouldn't have survived that either the third option has to be the right one and here we have a pagan parallel they must have together snuck up on and castrated him for the same reason that the Titans castrated uranos they didn't want him to be the chief of the clan anymore as small as it was and why are there the four brothers because Kanan must have been a fourth brother Shem ham Japheth and Canaan somehow he got mixed up with Pam but originally it's the four of them just as there were five brothers sons of uranos that schemed to castrate him and Cronus took over as the King well the four brothers of the sons of Noah are the five brothers crius coiours Cronus aya Paytas and Hyperion who were gods originally and the fact that you can tell they the Noah sons are derived from them because two of the names are dead giveaways Japheth and ayah pages are just Hebrew and Greek versions of the same name and ayah Paytas was a Titan worshipped by the Philistines and figured prominently in the Bible and ham is short for Balaam on the god of the heavens and so there so it's another version of the same story Noah is you and so they they historicized it in order to explain what the Philistines did to be defeated and the Canaanites did to be exterminated and so there that that's stuck in there and it also in shows the invention of wine but this there's another problem with this because we were told a couple of chapters earlier that uh jabal or gable had he was the first one to till the soil well I thought no it's the first one to till the soil well clearly what this means is that there were naturally different versions who of who was the first farmer and so the one of them had gable the other had Noah and this means jaybo had nothing to do with the flood story whoever wrote that story says that gable was the father of all those who tilled the soil well the guy telling the story would live long after the flood had their benefit but he's saying the guy that started our occupation of farming that was him he was the culture hero but he wouldn't have been if a flood had in the meantime destroyed the human race to say Noah rediscovered it and then didn't say gable and invented of farming precociously but of course intend to be reinvented later so you got the Jay himself has had to put pieces together scraps and patches I even thought in Adam you know you will you will sweat from the brow you know the idea of him tilling or at least it looks like he's going to labor working in the fields is another and and if you I don't know how you'd want to look at the Genesis one but I do find it fascinating God separates light from darkness and then water from Earth almost like there's a flood there so it's it's an interesting possible you know idea of water now subsiding and there's this flood account it's it's weird our by plus a cane is said to well yeah Adam would have been the first one so the the gable thing then pepper for that didn't know about this story and Cain was was a tiller of the soil obviously the whole thing with God rejecting his offering because like me God doesn't like vegetables and so the Cain is not even said to be the first but he's already plow in the field so yeah you just have a collision between these two and it's not because the author was a stupid dope who couldn't keep his story straight it's because the author is a compiler of all kinds of ancient bits and pieces thank God but here's another weird one Noah why was he named Noah and it actually says it has him as the son I think of Lamech and they you know how they always say they named him so and so because of and then they'll tell you some important thing the character did well but they mended Noah because he would bring rest to the earth relief how does that have to do with the flood that's killed everybody except a handful of people will know it must have to do with him inventing why the idea that after a hard day it's Miller time and so this story about Noah did not know Noah had anything to do with the flood and though though I must admit in the Greek version Deucalion was a vintner too so there's there's some sort of connection there but it seems to me that this was a different version of Noah and who was the Noah connected with the flood well that was anak they're almost the same in Hebrew even in English it almost comes across that way because when people speak of things so see aided with Noah they'll say the no a cake flood it's a hard ch you don't hear that much anymore but they did and so they they just it's without the the vowel right they were dispensable anyway and Noah and Enoch are pretty much the same name and now we know why Enoch was important and how he gained heavenly immortality because it was his reward for obeying God and saving the human race or you know repopulating it and so he was given immortality just like an efficient and the Gilgamesh epic just like Zissou throws the ark builder in the Babylonian flood store one of the Babylonian flood stories so it makes a whole bunch of sense and this thus Enoch has taken up into heaven to walk with God makes sense also because Enoch was a Sun God and the Sun dries up the flood so it's also a bounce to meaning back to Adam for just a second Adam walked with God the cool of the day like there's there's this weird connection where these repeat they're trying to figure out how to make this story but they're not trying to change it too much and in a buddy of mine I have to leave him on name because he hasn't given me permission to say who he is he said that Adam is also a Sun God in his understanding of me like there's a Sun there's an implication of the Sun here in this story somehow so maybe I can get him on some day to talk about that more but yeah bill Robinson no no no this is actually somebody who wants to remain yeah because the Ville is just incredibly learned it in this and writing a book luckily I can't wait to read the whole thing but the it could be I don't know the basis for that but I'm sure there is one he's working from something there's a weird thing where Kane is almost another version of Adam you have the same thing where he does something he's not supposed to do and it's kicked out Adam out of Eden and came out of the vicinity of Eden Eden and there's some kind of weird thing with these these repetitions and so on and since his tag ends of myths Nicolas Wyatt is a British scholar who knows all of these ancient texts and has pointed out things that are so fascinating by the way I mentioned what he says but came and he solved the mystery of where Cain got his wife we think and I mentioned this and a lot of this stuff I'm saying in the first volume of my holy fable series you'll find stuff there that you don't find hardly any place else in it oh also with yeah and my friend and salminen and I he's scientist we wrote together evolving out of Eden Christian responses to evolution which deals with a whole lot of this stuff like does it make any sense at all to imagine the whole human race coming from two people and and the whole thing whether Paul meant that there was a literal Adam and all kinds of theological stuff nobody ever even brings up about this evolving Out of Eden and holy fate so so we've got and I'm sure there's a crap ton more of parallels to the Noah story that may even come after possibly but when do you date some of this material like do you have I know it's hard to pin down exactly but being it's copying the the greco are the Greek mythology's in the Samaria Sumerian when do you date some of the stuff well I believe the specialists in this make the the Gilgamesh epic and and other similar texts we we have copies if I'm not mistaken they're older than anybody thinks the writing of the Bible was that doesn't settle anything though because no one denies these stories must have been being told long before they were written down whether in the Gilgamesh epic or in the Bible so it and it doesn't matter a whole lot since you're you you can never prove dependence but that isn't the point it's not like saying that the Bible writer must have copied it from the Gilgamesh epic that's over simple it's just if there are a bunch of these things floating around it really doesn't I mean if the one had been copied from the other they'd be even more alike so it really looks like they're just different tellings from different places yeah or even a compilation of sources to create their own version so to speak another thing John Knight LUN WAP dr. John Knight Lanois he brought up something interesting where he actually said that the the Noah flood situation is actually celestial in nature he goes to the to the the sumerian myth to point out that the the eternal life and i cannot remember the narrative this was on the show we did and the flooding was actually the Milky Way the Milky Way in the heavens was what flooded and ultimately it has to do with the celestial bodies and it was a very interesting ancient prehistory concept like you said stories that have been told been told been told and they've been looking at the heavenly bodies and other cultures have this and he has an interesting book on some of the stuff that you might want to check out sometime but dr. John Knight lanois I'll link up with you sometime on that I think we should end on that note there's so much on Noah that that I think we could do but let's reserve some of your energy for our next if that's okay there sure alright don't forget everybody make sure you guys get the books that dr. bob has down in the link below and show them some support on the patreon this is the end of the Noah pagan parallels alright [Applause]
