After the Flood, God makes a covenant with Noah — a covenant that establishes the sanctity of human life, the legitimacy of civil authority, and the sign of the rainbow in the clouds.

In Genesis 9, we see:

• The command to increase and multiply
• Man’s dominion over creation
• The prohibition against consuming blood
• The institution of capital punishment
• The covenant sealed with the rainbow
• Noah’s drunkenness
• The sin of Ham
• The curse of Canaan
• The prophetic blessing of Shem and Japheth

This chapter is foundational for understanding Catholic teaching on human dignity, justice, authority, and salvation history.

Why does God require blood for blood?
What does it mean that man is made in the image of God?
Why was Canaan cursed instead of Ham?
What is the true meaning of the rainbow?

In this video, we walk verse-by-verse through Genesis 9 using the traditional Catholic understanding of Scripture and the Douay-Rheims text.

This covenant is not just ancient history — it establishes moral principles that continue through natural law, civil authority, and the unfolding plan of redemption that culminates in Christ.
