Creation science Quote by Ken Ham
““The primary source of water for the Flood was the springs of the great deep bursting forth (Genesis 7:1127). This water in turn likely provided some of the water in the “windows of heaven” in an indirect fashion. There is no need for an ocean of vapor above the atmosphere to provide for extreme amounts of water for the rain that fell during the Flood.””
About This Quote
Source Bible: Genesis 7:11‑12, Old Testament
The Flood’s water came primarily from underground springs, not from a massive atmospheric vapor source, explaining the rain without an ocean of vapor above.
In simple terms: Flood water sourced from springs, not sky vapor.
