Noah

Tanakh

Question

Hi. I was brought up in the Christian faith but understand that much of the Old Testament is founded on the religion of Judaism. My question is where was the homeland of Noah before the Great Flood and where was the homeland of Noah following the Great Flood? In addition if the accounts of Noah are correct, are all of mankind descendents of Noah? Thank you for reading. Tim

Answer

Shalom!

Thank you for your question.

Noah, as most of mankind, lived in the area of the Land of Israel. This is true both before and after the flood.

Yes, all mankind are descendants of Noah.
