Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Genesis 7:1-10
CRITICAL NOTES.—Genesis 7:1. Righteous.] The radical notion of this important word in Hebrew is, by Gesenius and Davies, affirmed to be that of “straightness,” the quality of going evenly and directly to the end aimed at; but, by Fürst, is taken to be “firmness, hardness, hence strength, victoriousness.” Either conception is interesting, and well fitted to give food for reflection.

Sermon Bible Commentary - Genesis 7:1-24
Gen. 6-7 A long period elapsed between the commencement of the building of the ark and the actual flood. During that period we notice: (1) the strength of Noah's faith. God has told him of a deluge of which there is no appearance; he has commanded him to build a strange vessel for no apparent purpose; he has told him that one hundred and twenty years of toil must elapse before the vessel can be of any use to him.

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Genesis 7:1-24
Genesis 7:2 ; Genesis 7:8 . Clean beasts by sevens. Male and female, reserving one for sacrifice. God’s special care is over man and beast, and over the preservation of religion. Genesis 7:11. The same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up.
