The story of Adam and Eve is also very well - known. God created Adam from the dust and placed him in the Garden of Eden. Then He created Eve from Adam's rib. They were allowed to eat from all the trees in the garden except the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. But they were tempted by the serpent and ate from that tree, and thus sin entered the world.
One famous story is the story of Noah's Ark. God, seeing the great wickedness of humanity, decided to send a flood to destroy the earth. But Noah was a righteous man. God instructed him to build an ark and take two of every kind of animal onto it. Noah did as he was told, and when the flood came, he and his family and the animals were saved.
