I am going to start posting on the flood account tomorrow for my book When God Pled Guilty.
This post is to provide fair warning….
I initially wanted to try to cover the flood in about 1000 words. 1 or 2 posts maximum.
Then as I studied, my first 1000 words on the flood became a flood of words, until I finally ended up with nearly 20,000 words.
Overkill? Maybe. But so was the flood. Ha!
Seriously though, this is a tough text in the Bible – maybe the toughest of all the violent passages in the Old Testament. And besides, it lays the framework and foundation for all the violent texts that follow.
So brace yourselves.
You’re in for 40 days and 40 nights of posts on the flood. Well, maybe not that long… but you will probably be ready to get off the boat when we’re finally done.

Jeremy,
I am looking forward to these 40 days and 40 nights!
Thanks for taking up this task and share it with us.
God bless,

Thanks, Herman. The going is slow, but the rain is falling!
