By building an altar to the Lord Noah again displays that he was a righteous man, walking faithfully with his God.

Hi Carole, thanks for your comments over the past couple of weeks. It's good having you reading along!

Never again will I destroy all living things, even though people's thoughts and actions are bent towards evil from childhood (vs 21) It seems so much worse now, but God keeps his word. Thank goodness for the final sacrifice of Christ so we will one day walk with him again!

From what I understand he sent out the same dove multiple times.
