Genesis 8 ~ The Dove Discovers Dry Land

image source

Details of the flood are contained in this chapter. First Noah sent out a raven to find dry land and it came back, then after waiting sent a dove three separate times each time 7 days later. After the dove stayed away the last time, Noah began to disembark and offered a sacrifice to God. God, when smelling the fragrance of the sacrifice stated:
"As long as the earth lasts, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, Summer and winter, And day and night shall not cease. "verse 22

Thanks so much for your visit today. May God richly bless you and the reading of His word.
