Sin enters in Genesis 3, spreads in Genesis 4, and by Genesis 5, death reigns over all. When we arrive at Genesis 6, humanity has fallen so far that God grieves over His creation and is ready to bring judgment. How did things unravel so quickly, and what can we learn from it?

Big Idea: Though humanity deserved to be wiped out, God’s holy grief led not only to judgment, but to grace.
