Parsha Noach is full of connections and parallels with other passages in Scripture. Consider these parallels with Bereishit (Genesis 1-5):

- Adam and Eve walked with God in the Garden vs Noah walked with God.
- Satisfaction vs regret in the creation of mankind
- “Let us make mankind in our own image” vs “I am about to bring ruin upon mankind.”
- “Get out of the Garden” vs “Get into the ark.”
- Separation of waters vs reunification of waters.
- Separation of land from water vs reunification of land and water.
- God planted a Garden vs Noah planting a vineyard.
- Rebellion and curse of son vs rebellion and curse of son.
- Wind over the water vs wind over the land.
- Exile and re-establishment in a harsher world.
