In the Days of Noah: A Deeper Look at the Genesis Flood (DVD/ Spoken Word)

Product Overview

Genesis 6-9 recounts the events surrounding Noah’s flood. Sunday School versions of this classic Bible story sometimes differ from an in-depth examination of the Scriptures. In this extended classroom presentation, RTB founder and president, Hugh Ross, shares his perspectives on this important event and addresses common questions about it.

- When did Noah live?
- What was the extent of Noah’s flood?
- Where did the water come from and where did it go after the flood?
- Where did the ark land?
- Is there scientific credibility to the biblical story?

This two-hour lecture was recorded during a 2010 course in science apologetics at A. W. Tozer Seminary.

About the Author(s)

Dr. Hugh Ross launched his career at age seven when he went to the library to find out why stars are hot. Physics and astronomy captured his curiosity and never let go. At age seventeen he became the youngest person ever to serve as director of observations for Vancouver’s Royal Astronomical Society. With the help of a provincial scholarship and a National Research Council (NRC) of Canada fellowship, he completed his undergraduate degree in physics (University of British Columbia) and graduate degrees in astronomy (University of Toronto). The NRC also sent him to the United States for postdoctoral studies. At Caltech he researched quasi-stellar objects, or “quasars,” some of the most distant and ancient objects in the universe. Not all of Hugh’s discoveries involved astrophysics. Prompted by curiosity, he studied the world’s religions and “holy books” and found only one book that proved scientifically and historically accurate: the Bible. Hugh started at religious “ground zero” and through scientific and historical reality-testing became convinced that the Bible is truly the Word of God! When he went on to describe for others his journey to faith in Jesus Christ, he was surprised to discover how many people believed or disbelieved without checking the evidence. Having grown up amid the splendor of Canada’s mountains, wildlife, and waterways, Hugh loves the outdoors. Hiking, trail running, and photography are among his favorite recreational pursuits—in addition to stargazing. Hugh lives in Southern California with his wife, Kathy, and two sons.
