Genesis 8:11-12
And the dove came in to him in the evening; and, lo, in her mouth was an olive leaf plucked off: so Noah knew that the waters were abated from off the earth.
And he stayed another 7 days; and sent forth the dove; which returned not again unto him any more.
Possibly a flood
The answers is found in Genesis 8:11: When the dove returned to him in the evening, there in its beak was a freshly plucked olive leaf! Then Noah knew that the water had receded from the earth.
The first apocalypse happened in the Old Testament when GOD destroyed the world except for Noah, Noah's children, Noah's wife, and Noah's childrens' wives. When GOD flooded the Earth because of his creations' unspeakable actions.
Noah knew when to come out of the ark because he sent a dove out of the ark and if the dove returned Noah knew that it had no place to land so it had to come back to the ark. Finally the dove did not return so he knew the earth's waters had receded.
In the biblical story of the Great Flood, Noah's wife is not specifically mentioned by name and her fate is not explicitly described. It is generally believed that she, along with Noah's sons and their wives, survived the flood and repopulated the Earth after the waters receded.
Noah escaped the big flood, that destroyed the earth.
Yes, there is evidence to suggest that it rained on Earth before Noah's time.
In the story of Noah's Ark, Noah sent out a dove 3 times, after unsuccessfully trying to send out a raven, which stayed near the Ark.The first time the dove returned with nothing, so Noah knew that there had been nowhere for it to land.Seven days later, he sent the dove out again, and it returned with an olive branch, so he knew that the water had receded from Ararat.He waited another seven days and sent the dove out again, but this time it did not return; so you could say that the Answer is it brought nothing (other than implicit information; namely that it would soon be feasible for Noah to begin resettling the Earth).But the last time it returned to Noah, it brought an olive branch, so that could also be the answer.It depends on how the question is worded.
it is not said in the bible but it is in the time of noah...and i think it happened after the first rain where noah and his family saw a rainbow that god sent..
I thought it did, it returned with the leaf to show there was land?
Operation Noah - commando raid - happened in 1944.
Noah first sent out a raven, and it just flew back and forth. Noah then sent out a dove, which returned to the ark, and he waited seven days. Noah then sent out the dove again, and it returned with an olive branch. He waited seven more days, and sent out the dove again, and this time, it did not return.
