Noah's flood

A pure branch of Adamic peoples did survive through Adam's and Eve's son Seth, but over several generations others of our brothers, angels, loyal to Satan came to earth, out of turn, without entering through the womb and impregnated daughters of Seth's descendants. The situation got so bad that when there were only eight pure Adamic descendants left, Noah', his wife, their three sons and their wives, God again decided to destroy all other human life, in that part of the world, with a second but less devastating local flood, Noah's flood.

Our Bible is the story of one man, 

Adam, and his wife Eve.

It would be through Adam and his family that the

promised Messiah would come.

This promise of a coming Redeemer is promised in Genesis 3:15.

In time the entire blood line of all of Adam's

[Eighth Day Man's]

descendants had been polluted except for the one man

and his family. 

That man was Noah, and God brought a flood upon the earth to destroy all of polluted mankind. Only Noah and his family were spared because of their still perfect pedigree.

Was Noah the perfect man, of course not, but the key to understanding his righteousness, is in the fact there were no strains of these fallen angels called Nephilim in his lineage.

The world became a very wicked place in Noah's day, for every man did that which was right in the sight of his own eyes. So for the sake of protecting the Adamic blood line that Messiah would come through, God destroy all humanity in the land but Noah in the flood.

After the flood, the people of the earth of all the races banded together. Two of each kind of each race and breed was aboard the ark, to preserve their race line; and they all spoke one language. 

Editor's Note: This is only my speculation but, I do not believe the Noah's flood was worldwide. I believe it only covered the middle east where the angels mated with eighth day man, i.e. the Adamic people who Christ was to be born through. What I'm saying is, I don't believe the races were aboard the ark. I believe they were in another part of the earth. I don't believe God had any reason to destroy 1000s of  years of 6th day man's replenishing of the earth, as God had told him to do since Satan's goal was to disrupt the seed line of eighth day Adam. Why, I ask myself, would God want to destroy the races?

I believe the confusion is in the translation;

The Hebrew words "ad-aw-maw" and eh'-rets are translated "land" more often then "earth" through out much of the Bible. How do you think they should have been translated in chapter 4 verse 14 in Genesis?

Scripture:   Genesis 4:14  Behold, thou hast driven me out this day from the face of the earth (H127); and from thy face shall I be hid; and I shall be a fugitive and a vagabond in the earth (H776) ; and it shall come to pass, that every one that findeth me shall slay me.

Let's look closely at the King James translation:
......, thou hast driven me out this day from the face of the earth;
................; and I shall be a fugitive and a vagabond in the earth:

It sure reads funny the way it's translated with earth at both places doesn't it?
Two different Hebrew words, but both translated earth in the King James Bible.

Strong's Concordance
Gen 4:14  Behold, thou hast driven me out, this day from, the face of the earth;H127 and from thy face, shall I be hid; and I shall be a fugitive and a vagabond in the earth;H776 and it shall come to pass, that every one that findeth me shall slay me.

earth  H127
אדמה
'a?da?ma?h
ad-aw-maw'
From H119; soil (from its general redness): - country, earth, ground, husband [-man] (-ry), land.

earth  H776
ארץ
'erets
eh'-rets
From an unused root probably meaning to be firm; the earth (at large, or partitively a land): -  X common, country, earth, field, ground, land, X nations, way, + wilderness, world.

H127 ad-aw-maw' was translated earth over 30 times and land over 100 times in the King James Version of the Bible.
H776 eh'-rets was translated land over 1300 times and earth over 700 times in the King James Version of the Bible.

If ad-aw-maw' had been translated land in Genesis 4:14 and eh'-rets had been translated earth as in many parts of the Bible it would read like this: Behold, thou hast driven me out this day from the face of the land; and from thy face shall I be hid; and I shall be a fugitive and a vagabond in the earth; and it shall come to pass, that every one that findeth me shall slay me.

If eh'-rets had been translated land in Genesis 4:14 and ad-aw-maw' had been translated earth as in many parts of the Bible it would read like this: Behold, thou hast driven me out this day from the face of the earth; and from thy face shall I be hid; and I shall be a fugitive and a vagabond in the land; and it shall come to pass, that every one that findeth me shall slay me.

Why do you suppose they translated it the way they did?
Probably because the translators of the "King James Bible" had the same pre-conceived idea about Noah's flood as do most people today!
They think it was universal and ignore, or are ignorant of, Lucifer's flood!
If they had translated it "land" here they would also have had to translate it "land" in Genesis chapters 6 and 7. But since they were convinced that the flood was universal they had a problem using the word "land" in Genesis.

One thing is for sure; ad-aw-maw' and eh'-rets should not both have been translated earth in Genesis 4:14. In the original Hebrew two different words were used and in this verse clearly have two different meanings.
