The Bible narrates the story of Noah, who was ordered by God to build an arch so that he, seven other people, and a menagerie of animals may be spared from the flood that was to destroy the corrupted world. The story became the subject of epic and artistic stories in Judaism, Christianity and Islam and of theological interpretations (the arch as a symbol of the temple saving humanity).
