The Biblical description of the flood in Genesis chapter 6, 7 and 8 indicates that the deluge was universal and it destroyed every living thing on earth, except those present with Noah (pbuh) in the ark. The description suggests that the event took place 1656 years after the creation of Adam (pbuh) or 292 years before the birth of Abraham, at a time when Noah (pbuh) was 600 years old. Thus the flood may have occurred in the 21st or 22nd Century B.C.
This story of the flood, as given in the Bible, contradicts scientific evidence from archaelogical sources which indicate that the eleventh dynasty in Egypt and the third dynasty in Babylonia were in existence without any break in civilisation and in a manner totally unaffected by any major calamity which may have occurred in the 21st century B.C. This contradicts the Biblical story that the whole world had been immersed in the flood water.
so whats wrong here

no that does not mean its wrong servant of Jesus, the Koran says it only happened to the ppl of noah, which proves the Koran isnt a forgery bc it corrected scriptures that were changed by man

Maybe the "scientific evidence" is incorrect or not accurate.
What was the "evidence" compared to? Where did the "evidence" come from? Who interpreted the "evidence"? There could be flaws in science we see it every day.

Remember that the people who wrote the bible and the koran lived in a very superstitious time.Most of what has been written in those times should not be taken literally. Some of it might make a good bed-time story, but don't try to make too much of it.
Now about Noah's age. 600 moon years is not that old. In many warm climates time was kept by the phases of the moon. A year was the time of full moon to full moon - - 28 days. when you divide the 600 moon years by 28 you get 46. Noah was actually 46. Old for those times.

Christians take delivery of historic bills like those that you simply indexed as precise. There is lots of study displaying that Noah's Ark has helping proof in technology and historical past. Sampson's force discovered him via the Spirit of God. Why would not Ruth be a devoted follower of the God of Israel? There are courses to be found out from those reviews however simply due to the fact they're extraordinary does not cause them to fiction. The Bible covers 1000's of years, do you believe that it must be full of reviews approximately humans going to paintings and the marketplace and humdrum stuff like that?

the Bible got it wrong. The Quran say the flood happened to the People of Noah. That is something that is verifiable by scientific explanation. During that time a flood did happen in his part of the world that was of catastrophic proportion

You didn't post your scientific evidence from archaeological sources. What are they?
You need to post your sources.
Oh, I believe the Holy Bible!
Does that mean your Qu'ran is wrong since it takes a little from the Hebrew Bible (Torah) and little from New Testament?

Well, the story is mythology, not fact.
Try not to confuse the two ok?

What is wrong is that it is exactly that, a biblical "story"
