The Prophetic Role

of Noah

Prophet Noah succeeded Prophet Adam. He was born in the tenth generation and descended from Adam. There was an extraordinary happening during the life of Noah—that of the Great Flood. This exceptional event came to pass in accordance with God’s plan. Although it took place in the pre-historical period, it appears that God wanted this event associated with Noah and his Ark to be discovered in the post-historical period, so that it would become a sign for people of future generations, something from which they would learn a lesson in life.
