BS, this is not what happened, he went to spy on Noah naked.
Possibly. But the phrase "seeing his father's nakedness" is likely carrying more meaning than that.
Even though this excerpt below doesn't say the exact same thing, it implies that it was forbidden to see people's nudes :
"Woe [to] him who is giving drink to his neighbor, || Pouring out your bottle, and also making drunk, || In order to look on their nakedness." Habakkuk 2:15
Such a passage also hints at, deceive, to discover, see the humiliation, or humiliate such a person.
I know. But "uncovering nakedness" can also carry the weight of intercourse in the Bible. It seems to more commonly refer to sleeping with another man's wife though.
If there is a man who lies with his father’s wife, he has uncovered his father’s nakedness; both of them shall surely be put to death, their bloodguiltiness is upon them.
-Leviticus 20
