L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - Genesis 9:1-29

A NEW BEGINNING FOR MAN The earth itself having been purged by water, furnishing a totally new condition of circumstances for mankind and animals, now God establishes man in a new dispensation of things, blessing Noah and his sons with the promise of fruitfulness and of their multiplying to fill the earth that had been so reduced in the number of its inhabitants. God had told Adam and his wife to "have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and... read more

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Genesis 9:1-19

GOD ’S COVENANT WITH NOAH What did Noah do on leaving the ark (Genesis 8:20 )? How does this verse bear on Genesis 7:2 ? What indicates the acceptance of his offering, and by its acceptance that of himself (Genesis 8:21 )? What divine promise was associated with this acceptance? Of course, this does not mean that no further judgment is to be visited on the earth, as may be seen by 2 Thessalonians 1:7-10 ; 2 Peter 3:10-13 , and Revelation 14:22. Where, earlier, have we met the blessing now... read more

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - Genesis 9:1-29

The New Beginning Gen 9:13 This second beginning was in many respects very different from the first: there is nothing here about a garden, or a forbidden tree, or a tempting serpent. So it would appear from the letter of the narrative; yet, lo, as we go along the courses of the history, we find that they are every one here, only under different names, yet ending in precisely identical effects! So much for variety in human history! Believe me, there is no vital variety; it is all superficial... read more

Every moving thing that liveth shall be meat for you; even as the green herb have I given you all things. Liveth; that is, fit for food, 1 Timothy 4:4 . read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Genesis 9:4

But flesh with the life thereof, which is the blood thereof, shall ye not eat. There is somewhat very striking in this precept; and which is more than once, again repeated, under the law, with the reason of its appointment; see Leviticus 17:10-11 . No doubt, the grand object aimed at, all along, is in reference to the blood of atonement, by the Lord Jesus. And it is a matter of infinite moment, worthy the Reader's closest regard, how particular the Holy Ghost hath been, in every age of the... read more

George Haydock

George Haydock's Catholic Bible Commentary - Genesis 9:3

Meat. The more religious, at least, had hitherto abstained from flesh, being content with herbs, &c.: which had been expressly granted. Now, the salt waters of the deluge had vitiated the earth, its plants were no longer so nutritive. (Menochius) --- God gives leave to eat flesh meat, but with some restriction, that we may still learn to obey. (Worthington) read more

George Haydock's Catholic Bible Commentary - Genesis 9:4

With blood. This was a matter of indifference in itself, like the forbidden fruit. But God gave the prohibition, to keep people at a greater distance from imbruing their hands in the blood of others, which nevertheless we know some have drunk! He would also assert his dominion over all things; the blood or life of animals being reserved to be offered in sacrifice to him, instead of the life of man, Leviticus xvii. 11. Blood of brutes is gross and unwholesome. (Menochius) --- The apostles... read more

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Genesis 9:1-3

1-3 The blessing of God is the cause of our doing well. On him we depend, to him we should be thankful. Let us not forget the advantage and pleasure we have from the labour of beasts, and which their flesh affords. Nor ought we to be less thankful for the security we enjoy from the savage and hurtful beasts, through the fear of man which God has fixed deep in them. We see the fulfilment of this promise every day, and on every side. This grant of the animals for food fully warrants the use of... read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Genesis 9:4-7

4-7 The main reason of forbidding the eating of blood, doubtless was because the shedding of blood in sacrifices was to keep the worshippers in mind of the great atonement; yet it seems intended also to check cruelty, lest men, being used to shed and feed upon the blood of animals, should grow unfeeling to them, and be less shocked at the idea of shedding human blood. Man must not take away his own life. Our lives are God's, and we must only give them up when he pleases. If we in any way hasten... read more
