Ancient History

Learn about Noah's ark and God's promise to save his friend from the great flood.

God saw that people were doing bad things and his heart was filled with pain. Noah was God's friend who listened to and talked with God.

God told Noah to build an ark because a storm was coming. God promised to rescue Noah and send animals to him, and the storm would wash away all the bad things.

Noah built the ark even though his neighbors laughed at him because the boat was in the desert with no clouds in the sky. When ready, Noah's family and animals got on board and it rained for weeks.

God kept Noah safe for 40 days and nights. When the rain stopped, Noah sent out a dove that brought back an olive leaf, showing there was land. They landed on a mountain and Noah thanked God.

God promised never to destroy the world again and put a rainbow in the clouds as a sign. Even though things went wrong again, God had a better plan to send his own son as the rescuer.
