genesis 8:4 And in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, the ark rested upon the mountains of Ararat.


      4. seventh month--of the year--not of the flood--which lasted only five months.
      rested--evidently indicating a calm and gentle motion.
      upon the mountains of Ararat--or Armenia, as the word is rendered (2Ki 19:37; Isa 37:38). The mountain which tradition points to as the one on which the ark rested is now called Ara Dagh, the "finger mountain." Its summit consists of two peaks, the higher of which is 17,750 feet and the other 13,420 above the level of the sea.
