Noahs flood NOT worldwide ???

[Gray_Joy]

These are the 3 verses in the bible that allude to a division of the Earth.
Deuteronomy 32:7-8
Genesis 10:25
Genesis 11:

Thank you for those .

There were eight people in the Ark.
The idea of one giant landmass in history is known as Pangaea.
Yours is a fascinating proposal. That Pangaea's separation led to mass water displacement and as such the flood.

Is there anything in the Old Testament that suggests that?

The Bible indicates that "the great deep broke up," which I read to say that cracks formed everywhere, and this catastrophic land-mass displacement drove the water all over the surface of the land. See Genesis 8:2.

A world map will show that the coasts of Australia, South America, North America fit the corresponding coasts of Europe.

We noticed this in grammar school.

Thank you for those .

The division in Deuteronomy is language division.

Genesis 7
11In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, on the seventeenth day of the second month—on that day all the springs of the great deep burst forth, and the floodgates of the heavens were opened. 12And rain fell on the earth forty days and forty nights.
