What is the difference between GOD and LORD in the flood story in Genesis?
In the flood story in Genesis, "God" refers to the divine entity who decides to send the flood to cleanse the earth. "Lord" is often used to refer to the specific name of God in the Old Testament, YHWH, which signifies his covenant relationship with his people. Both terms are used interchangeably in the flood story to denote the same divine being.

It eventually became clear that out of Abraham's children and grandchildren, only Isaac and Jacob (and Jacob's descendants) would continue in God's covenant (Genesis 26 and 28).
