See Genesis 6:8 ff for the passage quote with footnotes.Genesis 7:1 And the Lord said unto Noah, come thou and all thy house into the ark; for thee have I seen righteous before me in this generation. 2Of every clean beast thou shalt take to thee by sevens, the male and his female, and of beasts that are not clean by two, the male and his female. 3Of fowls also of the air by sevens, the male and the female; to keep seed alive upon the earth. 4For yet seven days, and I will cause it to rain upon... read more

SECOND SECTIONThe Flood and the Judgment Genesis 7:10-2410And it came to pass after seven days [literally, seven of days] that the waters of the flood were upon the earth. 11In the sixth hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up,7 and the windows8 of heaven were opened. 12And the Revelation 9:0; Revelation 9:0 [גשם, heavy rain, imber, cloud-bursting] was upon the earth forty days and... read more

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Genesis 7:1-24

the Great Flood Genesis 7:1-24 What anguish! They climbed the highest story of their towers, then to the hills, but the greedy waters followed them, till the last crag was covered, and all living things in the first homes of human life had perished. Equally sudden and unexpected shall be the days of the Son of Man. See Luke 17:26 ; 2 Peter 3:7 . But what drowns other men only lifts the child of God nearer his home. The waters bear up the ark. When the loftiest refuges of lies and pride are... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Genesis 7:1-24

At last the work was completed, and the man who by faith had done that which was evidence of his folly in the eyes of the world entered the Ark, leaving behind him all his possessions. Then came the swift and final judgment of God against the corrupted race. The righteousness of this judgment can be challenged only by such as fail to notice carefully the corruption of the race as to its nature and extent. The only way in which it was possible to ensure the eventual purity of the race, and... read more

Wells of Living Water Commentary - Genesis 7:1-24

The Waters Prevailed Genesis 7:1-24 INTRODUCTORY WORDS As introductory we wish to bring before you statements concerning Noah and the ark which are found in the First Epistle of Peter. 1. While the ark was preparing. The ark was a tremendous ship. We have been told that the great ocean liners of today are builded after the pattern of the dimensions of the ark. That there is a ratio between the lengths and the widths thereof. While this monster ark was in course of building, the... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Genesis 7:1-24

“The Histories of the Sons of Noah” - The Flood (Genesis 6:9 b - Genesis 10:1 a) - TABLET IV It has been common practise among a large number of scholars to seek to split the flood narrative into different so-called ‘documents’. This has partly resulted from not comparing them closely enough with ancient writings as a whole and partly from over-enthusiasm for a theory. There is little real justification for it. Repetitiveness was endemic among ancient writings, and is therefore not a hint of... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Genesis 7:5-10

Noah and His Family Enter the Ark (Genesis 7:5-10 ) This section is a real problem for those who seek to split up the narrative. In order to fit the theory it has to be split up into minute bits chosen quite arbitrarily to fit the theory. Yet in reality the section sits well together as a unity, incorporating in one whole many of the features that are supposed to identify the differing documents. Genesis 7:5 ‘And Noah did all that Yahweh had commanded him’. This comment finalises the last... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Genesis 7:1-24

Genesis 6:5 to Genesis 9:17 . The Flood.— This section has been very skilfully composed from both J and P. There are numerous repetitions: Genesis 6:5-Ruth : and Genesis 6:12 f.; Genesis 7:7-1 Samuel : and Genesis 7:13-Nehemiah :; Genesis 7:11 and Genesis 7:12; Genesis 7:17 and Genesis 7:18 f.; Genesis 7:21 and Genesis 7:23; Genesis 8:2 a and Genesis 8:2 b. There are also differences of representation. According to Genesis 6:19 f., Genesis 7:15 f., the animals go in by pairs; according to... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Genesis 7:6-14

Genesis 7:6-Jeremiah : . In this paragraph the dating assigns Genesis 7:6; Genesis 7:11; Genesis 7:24 to P; to the same document Genesis 7:13-Nehemiah : a, Genesis 7:18-Ecclesiastes : are assigned by stylistic considerations, Genesis 7:17 a is a link, but “ forty days” has been borrowed from J by the editor. J’ s narrative has been dovetailed very skilfully into P’ s, and has been expanded by glosses. Its original order was probably Genesis 7:10; Genesis 7:7; Genesis 7:16 b, Genesis 7:12,... read more
