Abstract
Edward Hitchcock's sermon on the biblical account of the flood, based on II Peter 2:5. Hitchcock began the sermon with his retelling of the story, drawing from the narrative in Genesis. He noted that "we derive from the Mosaic history of the deluge strong evidence of the authenticity and inspiration of the Books of Moses" and enumerated the evidence for that statement. He concluded by remarking "that the salvation of Noah in the ark is a striking emblem of the salvation of the Christian by the Savior Jesus Christ" and that "the destruction of the antediluvian world by the flood of Noah is a striking emblem of the final ruin of the wicked." Hitchcock noted the dates and places where he had delivered this sermon between 1823 and 1831.
