However, after the Flood, sin remained.But when she could hide him no longer, she got a papyrus basket for him and coated it with tar and pitch. Just as the Flood washed away evil and gave the world a fresh start, baptism cleanses a person for entry into a new life. The water of the Flood symbolized baptism ( 1 Peter 3:20-21).After the Flood, God gave Noah and his family permission to eat meat from animals. Before the Flood, people ate only vegetables.Noah and his sons received the same command from God as Adam and Eve: Be fruitful and multiply.God promised to never send another flood to destroy the earth. He made a covenant with Noah, marking it with his rainbow.As soon as he stepped on dry land, Noah built an altar of stones and offered sacrifices to God in thanksgiving. Only after God commanded him did Noah leave the ark, along with his family and all the animals.Then he sent out a dove, which came back. The second time it came back with an olive leaf in its beak, symbolizing peace. Noah first sent out a raven, which flew back and forth but could find no place to land.Despite the ridicule, hard work, and long wait, Noah believed God instead of his feelings or doubts. The Bible twice says Noah did all God commanded him.No one listened. God warned the people, but they were too fond of their evil ways. While Noah and his family worked on the ark - over 100 years - Noah preached repentance to everyone around.Noah and his family were spared because God considered Noah righteous. Noah's righteousness came from faith in God, as pointed out in Hebrews 11, the great Faith Hall of Fame list.This indicates the Flood was universal and not regional. God decided to wipe out "all life under the heavens.Everything on earth will perish." (Genesis 6:17, NIV).Humanity made the mistake by turning away from God and becoming violent. (Genesis 6:6, NIV) Every bent of the human heart was evil all the time. God did not make a mistake in creating human beings. The LORD was grieved that he had made man on the earth, and his heart was filled with pain.
