When did Jesus preach?
### When did Jesus preach?
Scholars disagree about when Jesus preached the things Peter wrote about in verse 19. Scholars who think the “spirits” were people, think that the Spirit of Christ, that is to say the Holy Spirit, preached when Noah lived. Other scholars think that the Spirit of Christ spoke to the “spirits” in hell sometime between when he was buried and when he was resurrected.

How were the flood waters during Noah’s day a symbol of baptism?
### How were the flood waters during Noah’s day a symbol of baptism?
Peter wrote about the flood when Noah lived. This was a metaphor or symbol of baptism for Christians.
Peter wanted his people to know that God judged people and punished them for their sins with the flood. The ark which Noah built was a symbol of how Jesus saves people from their sins. Eight people of Noah’s day were rescued in the ark from God’s judgment. In some way, people who believe in Jesus and appeal to God for a “good” conscience are rescued. That is, God does not punish them for their sins.
