After returning from the region of the Gentiles, Jesus is once again confronted by the religious leaders, asking for a messianic sign. Jesus rejected their request and warned His disciples of the false teachings of those leaders. He then continued to ask about what the people and the disciples themselves thought of Jesus.
Now that God has directed Noah to depart from the ark and Noah re-dedicates creation, God makes a covenant with Noah and all of creation to never destroy the whole world again by water. We also notice that man’s dietary restriction has been changed from vegetarian to omnivore. And now all animals are fearful of us for fear they may be eaten.
The two brothers, Cain and Abel, have submitted their offerings to God. But God only accepts Abel’s offering and rejects Cain’s. Cain refuses to listen to God and repent. Instead, he starts an argument with his brother and kills him. Like He did with his father Adam, God questions Cain and brings him into judgment. Cain is cursed forever from the presence and fellowship with God.
