The proper date for Noah's Flood, based on extensive evidence, is 3520 B.C. With this anchor point established, we can then begin to investigate questions surrounding the Flood, and we can get real, concrete, fascinating answers from various branches of science, including archaeology.Today, we delve into one such question. Who were the people who perished in Noah's Flood?In Matthew 24, Jesus says: "For the coming of the Son of Man will be just like the days of Noah. For as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, and they did not understand until the flood came and took them all away, so will the coming of the Son of Man be."Another version says "until the flood came and swept them all away." Who were these people groups, these civilizations who were swept away in Noah's Flood? What can we know about them?We investigate the lives and cultures of specific ancient people groups in south Mesopotamia, in Palestine, in Greece, in Ireland, and North America. Evidence strongly supports the hypothesis that all of these civilizations perished in the Flood, at the date of circa 3520 B.C., causing a major well-known cultural break across continents in the centuries following Noah's Flood."Historians see circa. 3300-3000 B.C. as one of the most dramatic turning points in human pre-history. Multiple major civilizations across the world underwent sudden cultural breaks—urbanization, writing, political unification, collapse of older cultures, migration waves, and technological milestones." -Chat GPTNowhere else will you hear this specific, detailed information. Other Bible-believing groups have not been able to pin a functional date on Noah's Flood, and this stops them from knowing much of anything about the Flood, outside of what the Bible says. We are blessed to be able to tie secular history together with biblical history with the strong foundation of proper chronology. This sound reasoning goes far beyond guesswork or speculation, giving us great confidence in the biblical text.Also on this episode:Helen's View: "Be it Unto Me" Christmas storyPODCAST WEBSITE: Head over there, leave us a review, and browse past episodes.READ the full Show Notes and view images online at https://www.biblicalchronologist.org/store/archives/BCM_December_2025.htmlSUBSCRIBE to The BC Messenger email list at https://www.biblicalchronologist.org/store/BCM_email.phpSHOP our products on our new store!Got questions or comments?
