- Noah who divided the world amongst his three begotten of his wife Titea: viz., to Shem he gave Asia, within the Euphrates, to the Indian Ocean; to Ham he gave Syria, Arabia, and Africa; and to Japhet he gave the rest of Asia beyond the Euphrates, together with Europe to Gades (or Cadiz).
According to Genesis 7:6, 7:11 the flood occurred when Noah was 600 years, 2 months, 17 days old (also see Genesis 9:28). However, according to Genesis 5:32 & 11:10, the flood occured when Noah was 598 years old or 1655 years of creation.
The allusion, in the Bible, to his wife "Titea" would imply that Noah had other children besides, Shem, Ham and Japhet. The Four Masters say that he had a son named Bith. [3,4]
- Noah and his Sons (Japheth, Shem, and Ham) and their wives, were saved from a
flood that covered the earth, because they followed the commandments of God.
He is also known as the angle Gabriel.
Noah is the Patriach of all person that has lived in the earth since his day. [2]
