The FLOOD Ends | Genesis Chapter 8
Now that the Flood has ended, Noah is commanded to exit the ark after about a year. He reconsecrates creation back to God. God vows never to destroy all of earth by water again.
Now that the Flood has ended, Noah is commanded to exit the ark after about a year. He reconsecrates creation back to God. God vows never to destroy all of earth by water again.
Noah is now commanded to enter the ark. And because of all the wickedness in the world, God sends the waters of the flood from the earth beneath to the heavens above. All life on earth is destroyed.
The earth is filled with the hybrid species of angels and men. Wickedness is the result of this union. God determines to destroy all life on earth with the exception of Noah and his family. So, He commands Noah to prepare an ark, because the great FLOOD is coming.
This section begins with the events surrounding the life of Noah. It starts with a demonic attempt to corrupt the Seed of the woman when fallen angels married human females and produced a race of supernatural beings. These beings then proceeded to influence the corruption (wickedness) of mankind to the point where God sorrowfully decided to destroy the earth.
The next section (toldoth) of Genesis 5 deals with the tracing of the Seed of the Woman (seed-line) through the descendants of Adam.
Now that Cain has been exiled to wander the earth by God, he leaves from the presence of God and in time builds a city. What becomes of his descendants? And is Scripture trying to give us a message in describing this line?
