biblical flood
Genesis water disaster
The biblical flood is the catastrophic deluge described in Genesis, where God drowns nearly all life on Earth, sparing only Noah, his family, and pairs of animals aboard an ark.
The story appears in similar forms across many ancient cultures.
In modern usage, biblical flood often serves as a benchmark for overwhelming water: The hurricane brought biblical flood levels to the coast.
