Beyond his role in building the ark, what deeper theological significance can be attributed to Noah's character in the narrative of Genesis 6-9?

A Noah represents humanity's complete and utter failure to live according to God's will, necessitating divine judgment. B Noah's obedience and righteousness, despite the surrounding wickedness, demonstrate God's preservation of a remnant and his ongoing commitment to creation despite human sin, embodying hope and the potential for renewal. C Noah's ark building skills were more important than his moral character. D Noah's story is primarily a historical account with limited theological relevance for contemporary readers.
