16 A awindow shalt thou make to the ark, and in a cubit shalt thou finish it above; and the door of the ark shalt thou set in the side thereof; with lower, second, and third stories shalt thou make it.
"Among the different Aramaic terms for pearl, alone seems to be restricted to the pearl, while , and the Hebrew are sometimes used to designate precious stones in general. Thus (Ex. xxviii. 17) is rendered by the Jerusalem Targum; and (Gen. vi. 16), which denotes something to illuminate Noah's ark, is explained in Gen. R. xxxi. 11 as being a term "a brilliant gem" is to be understood."

Mahonri Morianchamur asks the Lord two questions...
18 And it came to pass that the brother of Jared cried unto the Lord, saying: O Lord, I have performed the work which thou hast commanded me, and I have made the barges according as thou hast directed me. 19 And behold, O Lord, in them there is no light; whither shall we steer? And also we shall perish, for in them we cannot breathe, save it is the air which is in them; therefore we shall perish.Mahonri Morianchamur asks the Lord two questions...
The Lord tells him the answer to the second question, detailing the solution in verses twenty and twenty one... but, AFTER completing the task of creating 16x "air holes" in eight barges, when the Brother of Jared comes bac, and asks his first question again, the Lord STILL DOES NOT ANSWER, but puts the responsibility to find the solution back in Mahonri's lap...
...the Lord said unto the brother of Jared: What will ye that I should do that ye may have light in your vessels? For behold, ye cannot have windows, for they will be dashed in pieces; neither shall ye take fire with you....
Why?
Why?
Because, Mahonri wasn't the first prophet to have a "how do I light my boat?" question. Noah was.
Noah lived 300-500 years BEFORE Mahonri and Hebrew scriptures say
Noah's light source seems to have been preserved in history for hundreds of years, for we find indications that King Solomon of Israel may have used it in about 1000 B.C. An Ancient Jewish manuscript entitled "The Queen of Sheba and Her only Son Menyelek," translated by Sir E. A. Wallis Budge, pg. 34, contains this statement:
"How the House of Solomon the King was illuminated as by day, for in his wisdom he had made shining pearls which were like unto the sun, the moon and the stars in the roof of his house."
Solomon wrote, "...there is no new thing under the sun. Is there anything whereof it may be said, See, this is new? it hath been already of old time which was before us." (Eccl. 1:9-10.)

all sketchy sources, but... we are obviously NOT the first ones to go down this road:
"According to Jewish myth [the original light] was a primordial light through which Adam could see from one end of the world to another. (Mayans - PolPovuh also teaches this!) When Adam and Eve were sent out of the Garden of Eden, God preserved a small part of this light in a stone so that Adam could take it with him. This stone was called the Tsohar and was passed down from prophet to prophet. According to the legend Adam gave it to Seth, Seth gave it to Enoch who gave it to Methuselah who slept next to it. This is why, some say, he lived to such an old age. Methuselah gave it to Lamech who gave it to Noah who hung it in his Ark." -
“…this ancient Hebrew tradition says the tsohar was a very large pearl or gem that Noah hung in the rafters of the Ark, which powered itself and illuminated the Ark. https://arkencounter.com/blog/2012/09/07/when-is-a-window-not-a-window/
Abraham was NOT just on a "garment recovery" mission. He was sent to get ALL of the artifacts Ham had stolen... Nov 1st, 2020 - CKS
“Abraham wore a glowing stone around his neck. Some say that it was a pearl, others that it was a jewel. The light emitted by that jewel was like the light of the sun, illuminating the entire world. Abraham used that stone as an astrolabe to study the motion of the stars, and with its help he became a master astrologer. For his power of reading the stars, Abraham was much sought after by the potentates of East and West. So too did that glowing precious stone bring immediate healing to any sick person who looked into it.” (http://www.umsl.edu/~schwartzh/samplemyths_7.htm)
We’ve talked of the legend of the tsohar being passed down from prophet to prophet. The lore includes Joseph of Egypt as one of those prophets. The story is that Jacob gave Joseph the stone but didn’t tell him what it was. It started to glow in the pit his brothers threw him into, showing Joseph that this necklace was much more than a rock. Then this:
“When Joseph was imprisoned in the dungeon, he discovered that if he placed the Tzohar inside his cup and peered into it, he could read the future and interpret dreams. That is how he interpreted the dreams of the butler and baker, and later the dreams of Pharaoh that prophesied the seven years of famine. It was that same cup that Joseph hid in the saddlebags of Benjamin, about which his servant said , “It is the very one from which my master drinks and which he uses for divination.”” Tree of Souls the Mythology of Judaism P. 86 by Howard Schwartz
The Zohar (Hebrew: זֹהַר, lit. "Splendor" or "Radiance"[a]) contains discussions of the nature of God, the origin and structure of the universe, the nature of souls, redemption, the relationship of Ego to Darkness and "true self" to "The Light of God". The Zohar was first publicized by Moses de León (c. 1240 – 1305 CE)
The Egyptian word for braizier ("Lamp" or "Luminary") is DIFFERENT than the words for "Heat" and "Flame" =>
They were NOT the same idea to an egyptian => Egyptians could have "Light" without "heat or flame"...
