Interesting that you would ask "what is a cubit?" Elmer. We do two or three songs about Noah and I offer some helpful little tidbits, introducing them. A cubit is the distance from your elbow to the tip of your fingers. My cubit may be longer than yours, but not nearly as long as Chombo Chimp's. Depending on which translation you read, the ark was either made out of gopher wood, or shitim. I kinda prefer saying it was made out of gopher wood.. :-)

Yeah, if all this furor keeps happening, maybe we'll all have to break into a rousing chours of Katie get up and bar the door...
