—Hebrew Word Study (Transliteration-Pronunciation Etymology & Grammar)
1) flood, deluge.
1a) Noah's flood that submerged the entire planet earth under
water for about a year
++++
Some think Noah's flood was only local. However the
description of it found in Gen. 6 through 8 makes this patently
absurd. If it was local, Noah had 120 years to migrate out of
the area to safe ground! Why waste all that effort building a
ship?
With the possible exception of Ps. 29:10, this word always
refers to Noah's flood.
