From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The sons of God take wives of the daughters of men, and have children. God observes man's evil behaviour and decides to flood the earth and destroy all life. However, God finds one good man, Noah, "a righteous man, blameless among the people of his time", and decides that he will carry forth the lineage of man. God tells Noah to make an ark, and to bring with him his wife, and his sons Shem, Ham, and Japheth, and their wives. Additionally, he is to bring pairs of all living creatures, male and female, and in order to provide sustenance, he is told to bring and store food.
