According to the Bible, yes, everybody was killed off after the Flood except for Noah’s family123 The Bible says that God did not spare the ancient world, but saved Noah, one of eight people, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood on the world of the ungodly (2 Peter 2:5)2
The Bible also says that God made a covenant with Noah and all living creatures, and never again caused the waters to become a flood13 Therefore, there were no more floods after Noah’s time. The Bible does not give us any details about how many people lived before or after the Flood, but it does give us a genealogy of Noah’s descendants from his three sons: Shem, Ham, and Japheth13
The Bible also mentions other people who survived the Flood by being in different parts of the world at different times. For example, Abraham was born in Ur of the Chaldees (Genesis 11:31), and Lot was living in Sodom when God destroyed it (Genesis 19:23-29). The Bible also tells us about other nations and peoples that emerged after the Flood, such as Canaanites, Egyptians, Babylonians, Assyrians, etc. (Genesis 10:8-12; 11:8-9; 15:13-21; 17:4-8; 18:1-16; 19:29-38).

The Bible does not give us any details about how Noah’s family made the rest of the people after the Flood. It only tells us that God made a covenant with Noah and all living creatures, and never again caused the waters to become a flood123
Some people have speculated that there was incest going on in Noah’s family, based on the fact that Ham saw his father’s nakedness and told his brothers123 Some have suggested that Ham himself did the castrating, or that he had sexual relations with Noah or his own mother12 Some have even suggested that Canaan, the son of Ham, was born from this illicit union12
However, these interpretations are not supported by the biblical text or by historical evidence. The Bible does not mention anything about incest in Noah’s family, and it does not condemn Ham for seeing his father’s nakedness. Rather, it says that Ham was cursed by his father for dishonoring him and exposing him to shame12 The Bible also says that Noah lived for 950 years after the Flood, and had many children and grandchildren12

4 of 30 so what's going on here then you're saying there were others who didn't die or something?

Yes, that’s what the Bible says. God saved Noah and his family from the Flood, and he made a covenant with them and all living creatures. He also made a covenant with Abraham and his descendants, and he gave them the land of Canaan. He also made a covenant with the people of Israel, and he gave them the land of Israel. He also made a covenant with Jesus Christ, and he gave him the church. God is faithful to his promises, and he does not forget his people.
I noticed it wasn't doing it's usual "smileys" with this stuff. Somethin' ain't addin up.
The flood wasn't worldwide. The Hebrew word translated "earth" that we nowadays would think of as a planet, merely means a region of land. Also the descendants of the nefilim the Bible calls giants are extant before and after flood. Not to mention you cannot get multiple races from one white family. Noah was perfect in his race, or genealogy the Bible translates as generations. 8th preacher of righteousness since Adam

The giants just left their bodies.
I was lookin up this Mountains of Ararat where it said the boat parked. That's like Turkey, so not too far. Checkin it in google earth where you can tilt and see 3D with elevation.
So what the hell went on with this flood, right.. and where the hell did all this water go. Like what would the map in that area look like at the peak of the flood. And then it just goes away. Maybe there was an asteroid or something somewhere else. But it didn't seem like a tsunami.
Then you get this stuff with the "firmament" up in the sky, where it's water on the outerside of that. Where Yahweh would just open up a gate or something. I think that's how it'd go.
Then you get the US military with their atom bomb tests.. where they were doin some up there. Who knows.. maybe they were trying to blow up the firmament. lol. I guess it didn't work.
It’s hard to claim that. Noah would’ve come from an earlier version of humanity that would have a much higher degree of inherent genetic diversity. Just as you can get many dog breeds from their common wolf ancestor, Noah and his family likely carried all the necessary alleles to allow their progeny to adapt to whatever environment they came across.
Noah and his wife survived along with his three sons and their wives. There isn’t much given in terms of specifics but we can understand that everything is degenerating due to sin over time. Humans now aren’t as robust as they were back then. It’s possible that the human genome was more resistant to the dangers of inbreeding at the time or God personally helped out with successful gestations for a while, manually preventing certain issues from coming about until the population was sufficiently replaced. We really don’t know.
Yeah I looked into this a long time ago and was startled to find support for the argument birth defects caused by inbreeding wouldn't occur without genetic chromosomal damage in the parents.
oh the sons had wives.. that's good. But this is like the 2 animals.. what happens after they have kids, right. There's gonna be some inbreeding.
So, you also have to consider that we’re working with the idea that there is an infinitely powerful and present God at work in this story. There probably was some inbreeding. Either way, God would be capable of preventing any excessive genetic abnormalities out of necessity. We won’t know the whole story until it’s all over though.
yeah yahweh was more involved back in those days, eh.. how about the who knows what cultures like the greeks with these big gods.. who knows what the hell went on back then ok. I think they shut 'er down with any of that supernatural type shit where those who knows what beings would step on in. Who knows about aliens from other places stopping in. I betcha in like native culture stories you got some of that, ok. There's a super clamp-down on planet earth where, no fuckin around with funny business, eh. Betcha they even somehow, lol.. "hoodwinked" yahweh himself, eh? Why's he not stepping in like those days. The US military and their fucking AI shit nailed his ass, I bet, eh?
The book, " Seven Daughters of Eve" explains the genetic bottleneck from the perspective of mdna. It's very interesting, and cited often.
It's quite simple.
The Bible is a combination of fiction, historical fiction, law, and philosophy.
