Characterization of God

This is a mind map that I made that shows the characterization of God in the story of Geneisis.  God, in the story is mostly cruel and selfish while caring for the world. I think that God only sent the flood because he did something wrong in the first place. I also learned that God is authoritative because he wants everyone to do what's he says.  He tells Noah to make the ark, doesn't ask and expects Noah to do it exactly as he said.  God is a powerful character in the story who basically can do whatever he wants.  For example, he just decides to create a flood to kill almost every living thing in the world.  Even though God did decide to create a flood to kill almost every living thing, he did have some guilt after he did it. This shows that God has some sympathy for the creatures and people that he murdered  and really has emotions. I also learned from the story that God human-like. He feels the same feelings that humans feel such as guilt and sympathy.  God is a character who can be cruel but can also be sympathetic towards people.
