Building of Noah's Ark (Construção da Barca de Noé)

When God sent the flood he wanted to punish human beings for their sins and perversities. However he wished to save the human race and the other animals he had created. Noah and his family were chosen to build a boat which could bear all the various animal species.


Deus ao enviar o dilúvio pretendeu castigar os seres humanos pelos seus pecados e perversidades. Contudo desejou salvar a raça humana e os animais que criara. Escolheu Noé e família para construírem uma embarcação onde reunissem as várias espécies animais.
