A Tale of Two Birds (Genesis 8:6–9)

Trinity Evangelical Lutheran Church Season 6 Episode 49

Moses definitely wants to draw our attention to the two birds Noah released from the ark. So we give a little more thought to them in this devotion—the unclean black raven that feeds on death and keeps its distance, and the pure white dove that feeds on life and returns to Noah in the ark.
