First comes the flood, wiping away the world that then was. Then God calls Abram from the nations, inserting Himself into the world through His chosen.

First comes the flood of Babylonians, wiping out the temple. Then Yahweh sends Israel out into the nations, inserting Himself into the world through His chosen people.

First comes the flood of Romans, wiping out Herod’s temple and demolishing Jerusalem. Then Yahweh scatters His people to the four winds blown by the wind of His Spirit.
