The answer is: 350 years

Gen 9:28

After the flood, Noah had quite a long life ahead of him, living for an impressive 350 additional years! Quite the feat, considering that many of us are lucky to see even a fraction of that today. This extensive lifespan hints at a world had vastly different environmental and physiological conditions.

Noah's compliance and action after the Ark landed didn’t just end with him surviving the flood. He dove into farming—he was the first recorded person to cultivate grapes, leading to the joys—and misadventures—of wine. It's interesting to ponder human culture evolving from such early beginnings among the remnants of a rejuvenated world!

Noah’s story, rich with lessons of faith, obedience, and survival empathy, has echoes woven throughout various traditions and literature. Just think! The tale has resonated not only through Christian faiths but also appears in the Epic of Gilgamesh, a predecessor from Babylonian mythology that depicts a flood sent by gods—showcasing how this theme transcends boundaries and societal evolution.

Noah becomes more than just a survivor; he becomes a father to a new human race represented by his children, Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Each brought their family lines into humanity’s story, truly showcasing how interconnected and significant our histories are, even early stories from Genesis. Life after the flood wasn't merely survival; it was about reconstructing community, culture, and divine relationships in a fresh world.
