Noah found favor and received instructions to build a large multi-level ark, gather food, and prepare for the arrival of the animals. Noah obeyed, warned others, and collected the necessary living arrangements. God then gathered male and female animals and birds, including those for sacrifices, and shut the ark’s door when all were inside.","03.

They had become very wicked and violent. It became so bad that God decided to destroy the whole world with a huge flood.  \nBut Noah found favor with God. He was a righteous man, living among wicked people . God told Noah about the flood He was planning to send. He told Noah to build a huge boat.  \nGod told Noah to make the boat about 140 meters long, 23 meters wide, and  \n13.5 meters high. Noah was to build it with wood and to make three levels, many rooms, a roof, and a window . The boat would keep Noah, his family, and every kind of land animal safe during the flood.  \nNoah obeyed God. He and his three sons built the boat just the way God had told them . It took many years to build the boat, because it was so big. Noah warned the people about the flood that was coming and told them to turn to God, but they did not believe him .  \nGod also commanded Noah and his family to gather enough food for themselves and the animals . When everything was ready, God told Noah it was time for him, his wife, his three sons, and their wives to get into the boat—eight people in all.  \nGod sent a male and a female of every animal and bird to Noah sothey could go into the boat and be kept safe during the flood. God sent seven males and seven females of every type of animal that could be used for sacrifices . When they were all in the boat, God himself closed the door .","cbCairQrSFbbdszP","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCairQrSFbbdszP","pdf",410750,1,22,"English","en",105,"# Noah’s Wicked World and God’s Decision\n## Building the Ark\n## Boarding the Ark and the Animal Gatherings","[{\"question\":\"Why did God decide to send a huge flood?\",\"answer\":\"Many people were living wickedly and violently, so the situation became so bad that God chose to destroy the whole world with a massive flood.\"},{\"question\":\"What instructions did God give Noah about the ark?\",\"answer\":\"God told Noah to build a very large boat with specific dimensions, multiple levels, rooms, a roof, and a window, so Noah, his family, and land animals would be kept safe.\"},{\"question\":\"How did Noah’s family and the animals get into the ark?\",\"answer\":\"God commanded Noah and his family to gather enough food, then told them it was time to enter—eight people in all.
