Why did God choose water to destroy a corrupt world? In this fascinating episode of Breakneck Through the Bible, Rabbi Bentzi Epstein reveals a stunning Talmudic insight that will transform how you view the oceans surrounding our continents. Discover why water wasn't just for cleansing, but served as God's "army" - a constant reminder of divine boundaries we too often forget.

We also learn why Noah and his family were commanded to separate from their wives during humanity's darkest hour, and what this teaches us about empathy in times of suffering. Finally, we explore the ancient understanding of kosher and non-kosher animals that predates the giving of the Torah, raising profound questions about Noah's spiritual knowledge. Why did God command seven pairs of kosher animals but only one pair of non-kosher ones? The answer reveals God's masterful planning for humanity's future and the deeper purpose behind every creature's existence on the ark.
