Genesis 8-11:9

As Noah and his sons and their wives disembark after the great flood, God exhorts them to be fruitful and multiply. Indeed, we are told that all the people's of the earth descend from them. God makes a covenant with them, a promise He has kept even to today.  A covenant remade and transformed in Jesus Christ. The Tower of Babel story has always gotten my attention. I was awed as a child by it, and generally find myself amused by it as an adult.  Although sadly it calls to mind the current US government scene.
