In this podcast episode, we read the story of the flood from an English translation of the Bible that is gender-accurate in these specific passages. We learn that God sent a great flood to cover all the earth, when He saw that human beings had become bent on violence and murder. In His mercy, God provided a means of escape for one righteous man and his family. After the flood, God made a pledge not to ever again cover all the earth with water. He also established a law that human beings may not take the life of another innocent person, because all of us--male and female--are made in God's image, and are members of the same human family.
