They say that Noah was an albino. But why it doesn't say so in the Bible?

Answer 1

Because he wasn't an Albino.

Answer 2

They gloss over a lot of things in the Bible. Heck, the Bible wasn't even written by those who experienced the stories, but by those who were told the stories through the generational grapevine! If he was an albino, that wouldn't be something people would want to hear. The same goes for women in the Bible--if Jesus and Mary Magdalene were married (and, according to Judaism--especially at their time--marriage was basically required), it was left out because no one wants to hear he married a prostitute. Ask yourself: why would she have visited the grave with mother Mary if she hadn't been his wife?

Answer 3

What you're looking for is in the book of I Enoch. This was an apocryphal book, which was left out of most canonical versions of the Bible. Many books were floating around at the time the books of the Bible were decided by the communities who saw it as holy. Many of them, like Enoch, contained narrative about early Biblical figures not found in Genesis. Each group took their own set of books and order to make up their bible. Judaism, for example, puts prophets before writings while Christianity puts writings prophets last. I Enoch only stayed canonical for the Ethiopic church. For them, this story is in the Bible.

The Book of Enoch is about One of Noah's ancestors (there are 10 generations) who, like Noah, is described as "walking with G-d." This is taken as a sign that he went up to G-d while still alive. He then is given a chance to see all of G-d's creation and history and oversees the primordial Messiah, Some of the ideas here make their way into Christian ideas about the messiah and prophesy. It is clear that this is a mystical, messianic gloss on Noah's life. We would be hard pressed to believe that the Writer of Genesis also meant these extra traditions contained in I Enoch. It's too stylized and crafted. It fits well within the genre of apocrypha, though.

Answer 4

I've heard that Ham was black from one source. Another said something about Ham being black and one of the others being darker skinned and one being lighter skinned-- something like that-- like maybe the 3 were the forefathers of the Arab, African, and European peoples or something. As far as Noah being an albino, I've never heard that, but it could have been true. Tee hee-- he was always pictured with white hair, right? Anyway, how do we know anything about all that?

Answer 5

Okay...Who said Noah was an Albino???

Answer 6

I want to know who "they" are. What is the significance even if Noah was an albino?

Answer 7

Answer 8

1. If it doesn't say so in the Bible, then why should you believe he was?

2. It doesn't matter. His rightousness and faithfulness to God was the point of the story, not what he looked like.

Answer 9

Who is "they"? I've never heard that one before...anyways, I have a feeling that the Bible has been around a little longer than "they," so I'd stick to the Bible.

Answer 10

an ambiguous "they" huh? well, they think the found the remains of the arc in africa somewhere, and if the story was true - we'd all have albino genes and there would be far more people who were albino.
