Noah Preparing First Sacrifice After Flood

Noah preparing his first sacrifice after the Flood. Etching by J. Culell. Noah was the tenth and last of the antediluvian (pre-flood) Patriarchs. The story of Noah and the Ark is told in the Genesis flood narrative, and also told in Sura 71 of the Quran. In Noah's 600th year, God, saddened at the wickedness of mankind, sent a great deluge to destroy all life, but God instructed Noah to build an ark and save a remnant of life. After the Flood, Noah offered a sacrifice to God, who promised never again to destroy all life on Earth by flood (the Noahic covenant).
