Coming out of the Ark, Noah worships God for his saving work. God then blesses this ‘new’ humanity, paralleling the original commissioning of Adam and Eve. The Lord then establishes a covenant with Noah and all living creatures for all times. This recreation is looking good...but...sin is still a reality. In spite of Noah being described as a righteous man in his generation we sense from Noah’s failure that sin is still very much alive. If God has promised to never again send a cleansing flood, what is the ultimate solution?
