It is seen that many local or global disasters are reported both in mythology and in the
sacred texts of different religions. In these disasters, there is a plot based on the extinction of
most of the living things on earth and the beginning of a new life. In oral narratives and sacred
texts, it is seen that before and after the disasters are described in detail. In the depictions, it is
stated that people are moving away from belief and that the human and social structure has
undergone negative changes. These disasters, which are also seen as a warning for future
generations, have often attracted attention. Great floods, in other words, floods, are among the
major disasters that stand out in this sense. In this study, Noah's Flood, which is perhaps the
most studied disaster throughout history, is discussed from a psycho-social perspective.
Scriptures about the flood until today; archaeological, anthropological, theological or
sociological aspects have been examined. On the other hand, it is undeniable that the
experiences should be made the subject of further investigation with their psycho-social
dimensions by putting the human being at the center. In this context, first of all, the situation of
the individual and society before the flood was analyzed based on the sacred texts. A better
understanding of myths and sacred texts for the individual and society is closely related to
understanding the situation before major transformations. In this context, it is considered
important to examine the moral situation, the culture of living together, the daily life, the
psychology of the individual in the society and the processes of identity formation. The
relationship of all these with religion and religiosity is another important issue. In the study
based on the qualitative method, content analysis and descriptive analysis techniques were used.
After the disaster, there is a situation in which great losses are experienced for the individual
and society, and the familiar social structure and order is largely destroyed. Therefore,
evaluations have been made regarding the effort of a relatively small community that has been
severely shaken to re-establish life and the new situations it will face, taking into account today's
reality. In this study, the relationship between before and after Noah's Flood with religiosity has
also been tried to be revealed. The perspectives brought to the agenda by the Flood and similar
disasters regarding today's society were another issue that was emphasized. In this context, it
has been deduced that narratives based on disasters are an important factor in man's reexperiencing his place in the universe and realizing once again that he does not own the
property. The narratives also contain references to the necessity of understanding the damage
caused by humanity to civilization and the compromise that should be revealed in the
relationship of man with nature. Such disasters, which are defined as cases that should be taken
as a lesson in the sacred texts; It is seen as a warning for people to reconsider their relationship
with both their creator and belief and the society in which they live.
