Gen 8 Why choose Mt. Ararat as the landing place for the ark?
Gen 8:19
Every beast, every creeping thing, and every bird, everything that moves on the earth, went out by their families from the ark.
Noah and his family as well as all the animals could radiate out from Mount Ararat to open country. They could move east into Asia, west into Europe, south into Africa, and the penguins could go north to Siberia. We know geologically that land bridges existed across the Bering Straits into the Americas and that one also existed down the Malaysian Straits into New Guinea and possibly into Australia. These existed during the ice age when large amounts of ocean water was stored as ice and the sea level was much lower than it is today. These land bridges enabled the descendants of the animals on the ark to spread to the whole world. Why did Elohim choose Mount Ararat as the landing place for the ark? Modern computer studies have shown that the geographical center (or centroid) of all the earth's land masses is located right next to Mount Ararat. This gives the remainder of the world's animals, two or fourteen of each, the best opportunity to repopulate the earth. Lack of competition permitted the animals to multiply very rapidly. There were no restraints from the animals pressing forward to the most desirable habitat for that type of animal. These conditions (rapid multiplication, inbreeding populations, and rapidly changing environments) were conducive to rapid variations of animals within "their own kind" (for example: different kinds of dogs and cats). Some animals such as many dinosaurs and mammoths, could not adjust to the drastically changed environment and therefore became extinct. Many of these extinctions probably took place during the Ice Age. The sharp changes in temperature following the flood caused a great buildup of ice and snow near the polar regions. These ice sheets formed at this time radiated down into Europe and the northern third of the United States. The ice age probably lasted for several hundred years (not millions of years) until the climate of the earth settled to what we are accustomed to today. What we see today as alleged "Global Warming" is likely just the stabilization of temperatures since the time of the flood. We have measured possibly one degree increase in average temperature in the last 100 years. If these measurements are accurate, then the one degree is hardly worth mentioning. Especially if one takes into account somewhat recent time frame since these events.
Gen 8:21
And the LORD smelled the soothing aroma; and the LORD said to Himself, "I will never again curse the ground on account of man, for the intent of man's heart is evil from his youth; and I will never again destroy every
living thing, as I have done.
Noah's prayer of that day is one we are still benefitting from today. Elohim said He will never again curse the ground for man's sake. He is referring to the curse of the ground because of man's first sin.
Gen. 3:17
This led to the life and death struggle that all of nature, including mankind, endures to this day. Elohim is saying here that He would never again declare judgement on all living things and on the earth. There is continual testimony for all of us to see regarding both the curse on the ground and the judgement of the flood. The testimony of the curse is found in the structure of the basic laws of science, which are the laws of thermodynamics. The testimony of the flood is found everywhere in the earth's crust, the worldwide fossil graveyard, and the universal evidence of historic catastrophe. Man has somehow distorted this evidence into a system of evolution and uniformity. Man isn't doing this because Elohim's Word hasn't explained to us the world around us, but because man himself is intentionally and willfully ignorant.
2 Peter 3:4-5
and saying, “Where is the promise of His coming? For ever since the fathers fell asleep, all continues just as it was from the beginning of creation.” 5For when they maintain this, it escapes their notice that by the word of God the heavens existed long ago and the earth was formed out of water and by water,
