Old Man Noah

Noah took his tasks to heart.  All of them, right down to the exact length, width, and height of the ark.

But who wouldn't?  God told him so.

In an age of wickedness, God told Noah to build an ark and place every animal in the world in it.  We all know this tale from our Sunday School classes, and even some comedic motion pictures in the last few years regarding it.

Yet what makes this interesting is that Noah did everything that God commanded.  He never second-guessed His judgement.

No leader today gets that kind of loyalty from their followers.

What's also interesting is that Noah was 600 years old when he built the ark.  I mean, God already put an age limit on mankind, and then changed his mind for Noah.
