✦ Chapter Overview

In Genesis 9, God commands Noah to build an ark and enter it with his family as the floodwaters rise, saving them from destruction. After the waters recede, God makes a covenant with Noah, promising never to destroy the earth by flood, and the rainbow is set as a sign of this promise.
