15. Genesis 6:3 reads: And the LORD said, "My Spirit shall not strive with man forever, for he is indeed flesh; yet his days shall be one hundred and twenty years." The one hundred and twenty years most likely refers to:

The amount of time between when God first gave prophetic warning, probably through Noah, that a great judgment was coming, and when the Flood actually began. C. The triumphing of the wicked who strive against the Spirit of God, which is always brief compared to that of the righteous. D. A way of counting centuries as years.

23. Genesis 2:5,6 (New American Standard version) reads as follows: "Now no shrub of the field was yet in the earth, and no plant of the field had yet sprouted, for the LORD God had not sent rain upon the earth; and there was no man to cultivate the ground. But a mist used to rise from the earth and water the whole surface of the ground."
Which of the following comments related to this passage is the most sound?
A. The mist mentioned in this passage served the purpose which evaporation/precipitation as we know it has served since the Flood. Pluvial activity did not occur before the Flood and the drastic geophysical changes that came with that deluge. The rainbow which God gave as a sign of His covenant was a new and marvelous thing to Noah and his family.
B. This passage is dealing with the time of the divine creation week itself. Precipitation has been part of Earth's climate from the time God's creative work ended. Rainbows had already existed, God simply assigned a new meaning to them.
C. Antediluvian (pre-Flood) precipitation was sparse and rare. Likewise, the mists and fogs of today are a greatly diminished vestige of the regular mist mentioned in the passage. What has remained constant from creation onward is God's faithful watering of the Earth.
D. None of these statements are Biblically sound, and speculation about this is of very dubious value.
24. What likely obtained as far as insects and microscopic life forms such as bacteria with regard to the Flood?
A. The angel Betelgeuse, for whom the star in the constellation Orion is named, protected them through the Flood. B. Noah and his family were able to ascertain that each and every kind of such creatures was represented on the ark. C. Some of these creatures were indeed on the ark, and others were able to survive outside of it. D. They did not exist before the Flood.
25. Which statement about aquatic creatures and the great Flood do you judge to be the most Biblically reasonable?
A. All marine life died in the Flood, and was recreated by God sometime after it ended. B. Some marine life probably perished in the cataclysm, but not all of it was destroyed, as was the case with land-based life forms. C. Marine life was completely unaffected by the Flood, which was global in scope, but very tranquil in its side effects. D. The Flood was not REALLY global, but rather a localized event. Land and sea creatures outside of the Flood location survived it.
