So why in the heck did Noah need an ark?

If it was a local event, like the destruction of Sodom, then then could have just walked to higher ground.

Interestingly enough, the same phrase / word for "all the earth" for the flood is the same one for the Joseph story and "world-wide" famine. I believe a flood happened, and I actually believe quite a few floods might have happened in locations around the world at the same time. But I do think the Biblical one is local. And I think the results of it are essentially at the bottom of the Persian Gulf.

Did all the world come to Joseph to buy food including the Eskimos?
