What does the Bible say about Noah's sacrifice?

Answered in 1 source

Noah's sacrifice was a pleasing offering to God, signifying faith and worship.

The Bible references Noah's sacrifice in Genesis 8:20-21, where it describes how Noah built an altar and offered burnt offerings after leaving the ark. This act was significant as it was done in faith, demonstrating Noah's gratitude and devotion to the Lord. The phrase 'a sweet savor' indicates that God was pleased with Noah's offering. This theme continues in the New Testament, particularly in Ephesians 5:2, which connects Noah's offering to the ultimate sacrifice of Christ, who is the true 'sweet smelling savor' that satisfies God's justice.
