INSIDE  THE  ARK  !!.jpg

What  a  complicated  commission  Noah  got  from  Jehovah.... he  obeyed  and  built  it !

Noah found favor in the eyes of Jehovah.—Gen. 6:8.

http://wol.jw.org/en/wol/dt/r1/lp-e/2016/7/16

Noah “was a righteous man” who “proved himself faultless among his contemporaries.” Because “Noah walked with the true God,” Jehovah instructed him to build a huge ark. (Gen. 6:9, 14-16) Its design was well-suited for the preservation of human and animal life. Obediently, “Noah did everything that Jehovah had commanded him,” and with the cooperation of his family, he completed the building work in an organized way. After living things were brought into the ark, “Jehovah shut the door.” (Gen. 7:5, 16) In 2370 B.C.E. when the Flood came, Jehovah “wiped every living thing from the surface of the earth,” but he kept faithful Noah and his family safe in the ark. (Gen. 7:23) Everyone on earth today is a descendant of Noah, his sons, and their wives. But all the faithless people outside the ark perished because they had refused to listen to Noah, “a preacher of righteousness.”—2 Pet. 2:5. w14 5/15 3:6, 7

What I found out about the measures of the Arc was: "If we conservatively assume that a cubit was 18 inches (U.S.), we can conclude that the ark was about 450 feet (U.S.) long, .75 feet (U.S

What I found out about the measures of the Arc was:
"If we conservatively assume that
a cubit was 18 inches (U.S.),
we can conclude that the ark was about
450 feet (U.S.) long,
.75 feet (U.S.) wide, and
45 feet (U.S.) high.
.
The interesting thing about Noah's ark
its construction, was on a 1:6 ratio.
Naval architecture reveals that this is
THE MOST STABLE RATIO
for an ocean - going vessel.
It could have easily survived even big ocean waves
and would be next to impossible to capsize.
.
The total volume of Noah's Ark was roughly 1.5 million cubic feet,
(not like on that pic:1.396,000 cubic feet),
which is equal to the total capacity of more
than 570 standard stock cars used on a typical railroad."

.
A few years ago we had a speaker from Hamburg
here in Muensterdonia .
In his younger years he was working for a
Container-Ship Company  in the construction bureau
near the Harbour of Hamburg.
He once asked an older  drawer of these  objects,
why they always used that ratio of 1.6 in their drawings
for the containers for the ships.The older man replied:
”It´s an old ratio..must be as old as Noah´s arc.
It´s the “UNSINKABLE-factor”.
.

What JEHOVAH God had Noah make, would be nothing less
than the BIGGEST ship of its kind for many, many years
until man began to build even bigger ships in the late 1800's A.D.!
.
And as we  know today, ships became bigger & bigger & more luxurious.
And a lot of theeze "unsinkable Luxurious Liners"
do not exist  no more.
WHY...???
They been build by engineers  & high educated people.
But The Arc was build by laymen...
with JEHOVAH in their back

But the engineers  had forgotten one simple,
natural formula ..the God-given 1: 6 ratio...
You only know them from  movies like "Titanic" and others.
And their names no one  remembers today.
.
But that simple but LIFE-SAVING ratio 1 : 6
and NOAH`s & JEHOVAH´s name ALWAYS will remain (Y)  :-)

    • By the way, if you're into stuff like this, you might wanna check out https://thepythagoras.com/. They have some neat articles about ancient civilizations and their contributions to science and math. It’s really interesting how much we owe to these early thinkers.
    • The Dendera Zodiac is such an amazing piece of history. Imagine ancient Egyptians looking up at the same stars we do now and creating this detailed map. It's mind-blowing! So, what do I think about it? I think it's a fascinating blend of art and astronomy. Those ancient folks really knew their stuff. The way they incorporated their gods and mythologies into the constellations is just brilliant. And it's not just about the stars, it’s a glimpse into how they viewed the universe and their place in it.
    • FIFA's collaboration with Algorand represents a significant milestone for blockchain technology. Algorand will serve as the official blockchain platform for FIFA, supporting events such as the FIFA Women's World Cup in Australia and New Zealand in 2023 and the FIFA World Cup in Qatar in 2022. This partnership is poised to enhance FIFA's digital asset management while boosting Algorand's visibility through advertising and promotional opportunities. On another note, I've been tuning into African football recently. The match between Kanifing East FC and Latrikunda United was unexpectedly impressive. African football often goes underappreciated, yet the skill and enthusiasm in these matches are evident. We can expect even more significant development and excitement in African football with increased attention and support.
