He is said to have died just before the Flood at age 960 in some variants, spared from perishing with the unrighteous.

If you go to Genesis 6 and to the flood narrative, there's no inversion there; all that's changed is that the conversations among the Anunnaki and the conflict between Enki, Enlil, and Anu have all been rolled into the internal thoughts of Yahweh or God.
In the older stories, Enlil sends the flood and Enki warns Atrahasis.
Survivors of Cataclysms: I’hins are divinely protected during major floods, such as Aph’s submersion of Pan (24,000 BCE) and Noe’s flood (4,000 BCE), relocating to regions like Shem, Ham, Jaffeth, and Arabin’ya (Book of Aph, Chapter III; Book of the Arc of Bon, Chapter IV).
Civilization Builders: I’huans lead the development of post-flood societies, establishing kingdoms and cultural advancements in regions like Vind’yu, Jaffeth, and Arabin’ya.
Their wars and materialism drive spiritual imbalances, as seen before Noe’s flood (~4,000 BCE) (Book of the Arc of Bon, Chapter I).
Druks represent humanity’s baser tendencies in Oahspe, driving cycles of spiritual decline that require divine intervention (e.g., floods, prophets).
Oahspe: Book of Aph, Son of Jehovih (Aph’s flood, Atavia’s statement)
Legacy for Future Cycles: Zarathustra’s teachings influence subsequent prophets like Capilya and Chine (1,000 BCE), and his cycle bridges the gap between Noe’s flood (4,000 BCE) and later divine interventions (Book of God’s Word, Chapter VII).
Zarathustra’s role as a mortal prophet bridges the flood of Noe (4,000 BCE) and later interventions by Cpenta-armij (~2,400 BCE), influencing early Vedic and Zoroastrian traditions.
Oahspe: Book of Aph, Son of Jehovih (Aph’s flood, Atavia’s statement)
In Oahspe: A New Bible, Noe (Noah) is associated with a major cataclysmic event: the submersion of the continent of Pan (also called Whaga), commonly referred to as the Deluge or Flood of Waters.
The flood was not solely punitive but part of Jehovih's cosmic plan to clear spiritual darkness, drujas (evil spirits), and the influence of false gods.
The Great Flood (~24,000 B.K.): Submersion of much of Pan due to the Earth's position in the arc of Noe and accumulated spiritual darkness.
The arc of Noe and the associated flood mark a pivotal cleansing and renewal in Oahspe’s cosmology, one of several cycles involving deluges and etherean deliverances (e.g., earlier and later arcs).
Similarities: Both feature a righteous figure named Noe/Noah, divine warning, construction of an ark/arc to survive a flood caused by human corruption, and the restart of civilization with preserved divine teachings.
Oahspe’s flood is regional (submersion of Pan), tied to cosmic cycles (vortexya, arcs in etherea), and mediated by etherean Gods like Aph, rather than a single global punitive act by Yahweh.
This makes Noe a reinterpreted, cosmic-spiritual version of the biblical flood hero, drawing on shared ancient motifs while emphasizing angelic hierarchies and universal salvation.
Book of Aph, Son of Jehovih (core account of the flood in the arc of Noe).
Fragapatti’s cycle is critical for restoring spiritual order after the cataclysmic flood of Pan and preparing humanity for subsequent challenges, including the rise of false gods like Anuhasaj.
As a “Son of Jehovih,” Fragapatti holds immense authority, tasked with reforming the spiritual and material realms in the aftermath of earlier cycles, particularly the flood orchestrated by Aph (24,000 BCE) and the interventions of Thor (21,000 BCE) and Osire (~18,000 BCE).
Fragapatti’s primary mission is to address the post-flood chaos caused by the intermingling of the I’hins (Jehovih’s chosen, spiritually pure race) with the druks (less spiritual humans), which leads to societal hierarchies and spiritual decline (Book of Fragapatti).
Reorganization of the Heavens: Fragapatti arrives to find Earth’s heavens in disarray due to post-flood chaos and the intermingling of I’hins and druks (Book of Fragapatti).
Fragapatti’s cycle (15,000–12,000 BCE) is a critical bridge between the early post-flood restoration efforts of Aph, Thor, and Osire and the later spiritual decline under Anuhasaj.
Fragapatti, as an Etherean God in Oahspe, plays a crucial role around 15,000–12,000 BCE by establishing Haraiti, restoring spiritual order, and guiding humanity through a post-flood transition.
He is best known for the submersion of the continent of Whaga, afterward called Pan, which Oahspe calls the Deluge, or Flood of Waters.
The I’hins of Whaga are saved from the flood and brought to new lands, among them Zha’Pan (Japan), Jaffeth, Shem, Ham and Guatama (The Lords’ First Book).
Compassion and justice: despite the severity of the flood, Aph acts out of care for the I’hins.
Atavia speaks of Aph’s flood “in the Arc of Noe, twenty four thousand years ago”.
So Atavia’s words are not a mix-up between two floods: Aph’s flood is the flood in the arc of Noe.
Aph can be compared with figures from other traditions, based on his role as a God who brings a great flood and guides humanity’s renewal.
Similarities: Poseidon, the Greek god of the sea, earthquakes and storms, is linked with floods and with reshaping the earth.
Enki (Mesopotamian mythology): Enki (Ea), god of water and wisdom, warns Utnapishtim of the flood in the Epic of Gilgamesh.
Noah (biblical tradition): Noah is a flood survivor, like the I’hins guided by Aph, but he is a mortal, not a divine figure like Aph.
Vishnu (Hindu mythology): Vishnu, as the fish avatar Matsya, guides Manu through a flood, much as Aph saves the I’hins.
Poseidon is the closest match for the flood and the reshaping of the earth, but the comparison is thematic rather than exact, since Aph’s role is monotheistic and administrative.
It necessitates interventions like Noe's cycle (around 4,000 BCE, linked to flood-like purifications in the Book of the Arc of Bon, Chapter I) and later prophets.
