In Genesis 7:10-12 KJV, it says, “And it came to pass after seven days, that the waters of the flood were upon the earth. In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened. And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights.”

These verses describe the start of the great flood that lasted for 40 days and nights. It begins with the breaking up of the fountains of the great deep and the opening of the windows of heaven, resulting in the waters of the flood covering the earth after seven days. This event marks a significant turning point in the story of Noah and the ark, a divine judgment on the wickedness of humanity. The flood serves as a purging of the earth, a means of cleansing and renewal for a world filled with corruption and evil. It is a reminder of the power and sovereignty of God, who can bring about both destruction and redemption in accordance with His divine will.
