In this episode of Reading Through the Bible Together, we cover Genesis 8–14, where the world starts over after the flood, yet the human heart is still the same. We watch God “remember” Noah and restore creation, making a covenant of mercy marked by the rainbow (Gen. 8:1; 9:8–17), even while sin resurfaces immediately in Noah’s own household (Gen. 9:20–25). We trace the spread of the nations and then the pride of Babel, where humanity tries to build security and significance without God, seeking to “make a name” for itself (Gen. 11:4). And right in the middle of that rebellion, God launches His rescue plan by calling Abram purely by grace, attaching world-sized promises to a man who cannot fulfill them on his own: “I will bless you… and all the peoples on earth will be blessed through you” (Gen. 12:1–3). We also meet Melchizedek, the mysterious priest-king who blesses Abram and foreshadows the greater Priest-King to come (Gen. 14:18–20). We end with a Gospel proclamation: Jesus Christ is the promised offspring who brings blessing to the nations, the true Priest and King who saves sinners not through tower-building, but through His finished work.Support the show
