Shalom and welcome to Team D Bible Study! The ark lands on the mountains of Ararat giving the occupants an opportunity to begin life anew. They are taken through the storm and after one year in protective custody, by YHWH Elohim, they are allowed to leave the ark after the raven and dove are sent forth to scout conditions of the land. After the dove returns with an olive leaf, it was the indication that everything is okay. Noah, his family and the animals leave the ark and he makes sacrifices, at the altar, and YHWH Elohim is pleased with the offering. He then lifts the curse of the land which was established when Adam, Eve and the Nachash made a mess of things in the garden. This bible study also explored the context of the word “Spirits” and the relation to Elohim as well as parallels between the raven, dove, olive trees and time.
