TEL AVIV – Did the great flood of Noah’s generation really occur thousands of years ago ?..... question that is being addressed by a new environmental marine research team from Tel Aviv University and the non-profit research and education organization, EcoOcean. The team, headed by EcoOcean's Andreas Weil and Prof. Sven Beer of Tel Aviv University, are working to uncover new secrets about civilization and climate change from the depths of the sea floor. The work is being done aboard Mediterranean Explorer, a floating marine vessel........ Prof. Beer was part of the team on board Mediterranean Explorer that recently headed to the Black Sea off the coast of Turkey, the site where historians believe the great biblical flood occurred. EcoOcean and an international team believe they have found evidence to substantiate what is written in the Bible. Says Weil, “We found that indeed a flood happened around that time. From core samples, we see that a flood broke through the natural barrier separating the Mediterranean Sea and the freshwater Black Sea, bringing with it seashells that only grow in a marine environment. There was no doubt that it was a fast flood – one that covered an expanse four times the size of Israel. .....Even without this proof, We believe that Noah's flood occurred. Praise to GOD.
