What happensPermalink
God gives Noah the animals for food. He re-establishes the covenant and gives the rainbow as the sign and seal. Noah plants a vineyard. Noah gets drunk, Ham gossips about him, and Noah curses Ham.
Why it mattersPermalink
In Genesis 1:29, God gave man plants for food; here He also gives animals. God’s covenant with Noah, the second in Scripture, includes both people and animals. The Bible’s first mention of wine is also its first mention of drunkenness.
Key versePermalink
I have set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be a sign of the covenant between me and the earth.
