A man named Noah lived in a time when the world and all the people in it were very evil. Noah had three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Noah and his family were the only ones who were following God. God decided it was time to destroy the world and all the evil people in it. He instructed Noah to build an ark, a large boat. He gave specific dimensions and materials to be used. He told Noah to bring his wife, his sons, their wives, and a male and female of each species of animal. When the ark was ready, the rain began to fall. It rained 40 days and 40 nights. The entire earth was covered even the mountains and all inhabitants not in the ark died. When the rain ended and the flood waters began to recede, Noah sent out a dove to find land. He did this multiple times until the dove returned with an olive branch. Eventually the waters receded and the family and animals left the ark. God promised never to destroy the earth and mankind again. He sent a rainbow as a symbol of that promise.

"Noah built an altar to the Lord. He then took some of every kind of clean animal and clean bird and offered burnt offerings on the altar. And the Lord smelled the soothing aroma and said to himself, aI will never again curse the ground because of humankind, even though the inclination of their minds is evil from childhood on. I will never again destroy everything that lives, as I have just done. aWhile the earth continues to exist, planting time and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, and day and night will not cease.aA (Genesis, Chapter 8,20-22). Woodcut after a drawing by Julius Schnorr von Carolsfeld (German painter, 1794 - 1872) from my archive, published in 1877."

Then God spoke to Noah and said, “Come out of the ark, you, your wife, your sons, and your sons’ wives with you. Bring out with you all the living creatures that are with you. Bring out every living thing, including the birds, animals, and every creeping thing that creeps on the earth. Let them increase and be fruitful and multiply on the earth!” (Genesis, Chapter 8,15-17).

He told Noah to bring his wife, his sons, their wives, and a male and female of each species of animal. When the ark was ready, the rain began to fall. It rained 40 days and 40 nights. The entire earth was covered even the mountains and all inhabitants not in the ark died. When the rain ended and the flood waters began to recede, Noah sent out a dove to find land. He did this multiple times until the dove returned with an olive branch. Eventually the waters receded and the family and animals left the ark. God promised never to destroy the earth and mankind again. He sent a rainbow as a symbol of that promise.
Noah and his family leaving the Ark with the animals and birds after the great flood. From “Favourite Bible Stories” published by Thomas Nelson & Sons, London, Edinburgh and New York in 1893.
A man named Noah lived in a time when the world and all the people in it were very evil. Noah had three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Noah and his family were the only ones who were following God. God decided it was time to destroy the world and all the evil people in it. He instructed Noah to build an ark, a large boat. He gave specific dimensions and materials to be used. He told Noah to bring his wife, his sons, their wives, and a male and female of each species of animal. When the ark was ready, the rain began to fall. It rained 40 days and 40 nights. The entire earth was covered even the mountains and all inhabitants not in the ark died. When the rain ended and the flood waters began to recede, Noah sent out a dove to find land. He did this multiple times until the dove returned with an olive branch. Eventually the waters receded and the family and animals left the ark.
