In Genesis 13:14-18, God reaffirms His promise to Abram, guaranteeing him and his descendants the land of Canaan, a pivotal moment in the establishment of the covenant relationship between God and Abram.
Genesis 8:20-21 depicts Noah building an altar and offering sacrifices of clean animals to God, who, pleased by the aroma, promises never again to curse the ground or destroy all living creatures, despite humanity’s inherent sinfulness, thus establishing a foundational moment of covenant and grace between God and mankind.
