Oil Dedicated to Noah

Noah features as the tenth and last of the pre-Flood patriarchs. His story appears in the Hebrew Bible and in the Quran. The Genesis flood narrative is among the best-known stories of the Bible. Noah also portrayed as a “tiller of the soil” and as a drinker of wine.

According to the Genesis account, Noah labored faithfully to build the Ark at God’s command, ultimately saving not only his own family, but mankind itself and all land animals, from extinction during the Flood. Afterwards, God made a covenant with Noah and promised never again to destroy all the Earth’s creatures with a flood. The flood narrative is followed by the story of the Curse of Ham.

In addition to his appearance in the Book of Genesis, Noah mentioned in the Hebrew Bible in the First Book of Chronicles, and the books of Tobit, Wisdom, Sirach, Isaiah, Ezekiel, 2 Esdras, 4 Maccabees. The New Testament references him in the gospels of Matthew and Luke, and in the epistles. Noah became the subject of much elaboration in the literature of later Abrahamic religions, including the Quran

The Genesis flood narrative encompassed within chapters 6–9 in the Book of Genesis, in the Bible. The narrative indicates that God intended to return the Earth to its pre-creation state of watery chaos by flooding the Earth because of humanity’s misdeeds and then remake it using the microcosm of Noah’s ark. Thus, the flood was no ordinary overflow but a reversal of Creation.

After the flood, Noah offered burnt offerings to God. Who said: “I will not again curse the ground any more for man’s sake; for the imagination of man’s heart is evil from his youth; neither will I again smite any more every thing living, as I have done”.

They also told that all fowls, land animals, and fishes would be afraid of them. Furthermore, as well as green plants, every moving thing would be their food with the exception that the blood not to be eaten. Man’s lifeblood would  required from the beasts and from man.
