Genesis 8:1 In-Context

1 God remembered Noah, all those alive, and all the animals with him in the ark. God sent a wind over the earth so that the waters receded.
2 The springs of the deep sea and the skies closed up. The skies held back the rain.
3 The waters receded gradually from the earth. After one hundred fifty days, the waters decreased;
4 and in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day, the ark came to rest on the Ararat mountains.
5 The waters decreased gradually until the tenth month, and on the first day of the tenth month the mountain peaks appeared.
