Chp. 6 verse 16 - Chp. 8 verse 10: Hashem tells Noach that he will destroy the earth and continue mankind through him. He was to enter the ark together with his family. Also a male and female of all animals, birds, and everything that creeps on the earth, in addition to food. Chp. 7, Noach is also commanded to bring seven pairs of all kosher animals and birds. The rain began on the 17th of the second month, and continues for 40 days and nights. The waters lasted for 150 days. Chp. 8, the ark rested on the mountains of Ararat in the 7th month on the 17th day of the month. After almost 3 months he sent a raven to see whether the dry land had reappeared. It just flew back and forth. Then he sent a dove but it did not find any dry land and it returned. Seven days later he sent it out again.
