Noah and the Ark, contd

Aired 10/11/2010 Chapter 8 (Holy Bible) 8:2   Fountains is more of a Greek word, a description or personification of the seas and of the storm. 8:3   The rain stopped. 8:5   When there is a high tide the water rises, eventually the height of water slowly decreases.  So three months later the water finally decreased. 8:6   Just like God or Allah promised the rain stopped on the 40th day.
