“The Lord smelled the pleasing aroma and said in his heart: ‘Never again will I curse the ground because of man, even though every inclination of his heart is evil from childhood. And never again will I destroy all living creatures, as I have done.’” Genesis 8:21
God was pleased with the sacrifice. He decided that even if all of mankind got even worse than they were before the flood, and had every thought, even from their childhood, as only evil, he wouldn’t ever punish all of the animals and creation for man’s transgressions again.
