This verse shows that everyone had descended from eight people and that they had stayed together makes it logical that their language would be the same. The land of Shinar was roughly part of modern-day Iraq and this reference shows familiarity with the area since dried or fire burnt bricks are the most practical building material in that part of the world. This is actually supported by DNA Evidence. (see reference)

Genesis 8:3-5
Genesis 7:17 says the Flood water started going down after 150 days, and then drained for another 150 days, (Genesis 8:3) for a total of 300 days which would be 10 months. Furthermore verse 4 says the Ark land on the 17th day of the 7 months which would be five months after the Flood started. Verse 5 says the mountains were first seen on the on the 1st day of the 10th month or 253 days after the Flood started.
Note: verse 4 says that the Ark landed in “upon the mountains of Ararat” not on Mount Ararat. So not finding the Ark on Mount Ararat it self proves nothing.

Genesis 8:2
The word stopped not only means to end but also to close. Verse 2 is indicates that the fountains of the deep and the windows of heaven were closed at this point. This consistent with the earlier suggestion the Earth atmosphere was the “windows of heaven” opened by water from the fountains of the deep ripping through it. Once eruption of subterranean water ended the whole collapsed back closing the “windows of heaven.” The shock wave from the closer may have been the wind mentioned in verse one. Not that this resulted in the rain ending. This would have occurred after forty days.

This verse does not imply that God forgot Noah and all that were in the Ark with him, but rather it shows that God did not for get them.

Genesis 7:19-24
These verse make it clear this Flood was a global flood. It clearly that the heist mountains in world at that time were covered with water io a depth of 15 cubits. This means that this flood had to be a Global Flood since any Flood covering the highest mountains in the world would by definition be a global Flood. The fact that Noah’s Flood was global is further supported by the fact that all land animals died.

Genesis 7:1-3
Genesis 7:1-3 mentios the animals going in to the Ark 2 by 2. God told Noah to take different amounts of different kinds of animals.
Clean beasts – 7 of every kind: Includes cattle, sheep and other animals used for sacrifices. The reason for this is clear since more than two would be needed so sacrifices could be made with out killing off the kind. They
would also be used for food after the Flood.
Unclean beasts – 2 of every kind: This would include all kinds of land animals not included in the other categories. They would be used for neither sacrifices nor food.
Fowls – 7 of every kind: This would include all winged animals not just birds but flying insects, bats and pterodactyls. Now before you jump on the “see the Bible has errors” band wagon you need to realize that the use fowls here is a translation of the Hebrew word “owph” which includes more than just birds, so the Bible is not in error here.
