Genesis 9–11 | Noah’s Covenant, the Table of Nations & the Tower of Babel

After the flood, God gives humanity a fresh start, with new freedoms, new responsibilities, and a covenant sealed with the rainbow. In this study we walk verse by verse through Genesis 9–11:

Why “be fruitful and multiply” still matters in a world that sees children as a burden

God’s permission to eat meat, the command not to eat blood, and how it connects to Acts 15

Genesis 9:6 and the origin of human government’s authority, including capital punishment

The Noahic covenant, God’s sign of the rainbow, and why it points to a global flood

Noah’s failure and four views on Ham’s sin, and why Canaan was cursed

The Table of Nations: how every people group traces back to Noah, one human race made in God’s image

Nimrod, the first kingdom, and the rebellion at Babel

Babylon versus Jerusalem: the city of man versus the city of God, from Genesis to Revelation

“It's not a question of which city you live in. It''s a question of which city you live for.” (John Lennox)
