Genesis chapter 6 gives four reasons why God sent the Flood:
1. ‘The wickedness of man was great in the earth’ (v. 5).
2. ‘Every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually’ (v. 5).
3. ‘The earth was filled with violence’ (v. 11).
4. ‘The earth…was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted his way upon the earth’ (v. 12). (All the people on earth had corrupted their way.)
IOW god was mad at his children
the above was paterfamilias ... few core truths found in the c bible -
the desert religions do not define noah - somehow lost, the core truth redefined in the 1st century, lost again in the 4th.
