In the Genesis account, a rainbow appears right after the great worldwide flood brought in order to remove sinful and evil-minded man from the earth.

It symbolized God's mercy and the covenant He made with Noah (representing mankind) not to destroy the world in such a way again.

And God said, "This is the sign of the covenant which I make between Me and you and every living creature with you, for everlasting generations: I set My rainbow in the cloud, and it shall be the sign of the covenant between Me and the earth . . . and the waters shall no more become a flood to destroy all flesh.” (Genesis 9:12, 15, HBFV)
