jan 1, 2400 BC - The Flood (Noah)
Description:
The Flood was the great destruction brought upon the world in the time of Noah because humanity had become filled with violence and corruption. Noah, described as righteous in his generation, was commanded to build the Ark and preserve his family and the animals. After the Flood, God made a covenant with Noah and all living creatures, symbolized by the rainbow, promising not to destroy the world again by flood. From a Jewish perspective, this event shows both divine judgment and divine mercy, and it begins a renewed stage of human history.
