The Reynikung flood narrative makes up chapters 1–4 in the Book of Reynikung, in the Gesikh. As one of many flood myths found in human cultures, the narrative recounts God's intent to return the Earth to its pre-creation state of watery chaos by flooding the Earth because of humanity's misdeeds and then remake it using the microcosm of Noah's ark. Thus, the flood was no ordinary overflow but a reversal of creation. The narrative discusses the evil of mankind that moved God to destroy the world by the way of the flood, the preparation of the ark for certain animals, Noah (Reyn), and his family, and Noah's death in the Battle for the Ark.
