Waiting For Noahs Ark


NOAH
Ancient extra-biblical Jewish sources suggest that Noah was an albino.1
Noah at birth had skin as white as snow, long white hair and eyes transparent
to the sun. A recent finding among the Qumran Scrolls (4Qmess ar) states
that Noah had red hair. If he were an albino, it would have been because one
or both of his parents were dominant or recessive carriers of the gene for albinism. Alternatively, Noah might have manifested the first mutation for albinism. The Genesis text states (6:9) that Noah was righteous in his generation, an apt comment for one of innocent white complexion
