In the Tractate Brakhot of the Babylonian Talmud it is said that the Deluge was caused by two stars that fell from Khima toward the Earth. The statement reads:

"When the Holy One decided to bring the Deluge on the Earth, He took two stars from Khima and [hurling them against the Earth] brought the Deluge on the Earth."

...

In the Old Testament there are several instances where Khima is mentioned. In Job(9:5-9), the Lord is He who "removes mountains...overturns them...shakes the earth out of her place...which commands the sun and it rises not...which alone spreads the heaven...Which makes Ash, Kesil, and Khima and the Chambers of the South..." In the King James Version these names are translated as Arcturus, Orion, and Pleides. "Chambers of the South" are usually explained as constellations of the south.

Khima and Kesil are also named in Job 38:31, here again in a text that deals with violent acts to which the Earth was once subjected: "...Who shut up the sea with doors [barriers] when it brake forth..." Who could command the dawn "that it might take hold of the ends of the earth, that the wicked might be shaken out of it."

The Lord asks Job: "Canst thou bind the chains (fetters) of Khima, or loosen the reins of Kesil. Mazzaroth is left untranslated.

...

"If not for the heat of Kesil the world would not fare well, because it counterbalances the cooling effect of Khima." This sentence is found, too, in the Tractate Brakhot of the Babylonian Talmud.

The passage in the Talmud that makes the planet Khima responsible for the Deluge means: "Two stars erupted from the planet Saturn and caused the Deluge."
