What Is The Meaning Of A Rainbow?

This time a read a following article after the flood of Noah. Once the waters were dried up and Noah got out. The first thing Noah did was that he made an offering or a gift to God. Noah offered this gift to God to thank him for saving him and his family. Jehovah accepted Noah’s gift. He, also, promised that He would never again destroy the world by a flood. So, when Noah and his family began a new life outside the ark, God blessed them and told them, “ you must have many children. You must increase in numbers until people live all over the earth.” But later, when people would hear about the great flood, they might be afraid that a flood like such would happen again. In consequence, Jehovah God gave something that would remind people of his promise, to never again flood the earth. What God gave to them, as well as us, was a rainbow. This is happens right after a drizzle or a heavy rain, once the sun shines forth and light passes through the water drops. Acting as a spectrum they diffuse light, and making 7 different colors appear. This is what God said: “I promise that never again will all people and animals be destroyed by a flood. I am putting my rainbow in the clouds. And when the rainbow appears, I will see it and remember this promise of mine.” Yes, God promised never to flood the whole earth again.
