Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the Lord said unto Noah,.... After Noah had built the ark, and got all things ready as were commanded him; and when it was but seven days ere the flood would begin:
Come thou and all thy house into the ark; that is, he and his wife, his three sons and their wives;
for thee have I seen righteous before me in this generation: this was a great character of Noah; that he was a "righteous" person, not by his own righteousness, but by the righteousness of faith he was both heir and preacher of; and this he was "before" God, in his sight, seen, known, and acknowledged by him as righteous; and therefore must be really so: and this shows that he was not so by the works of the law, but by the righteousness of Christ; because by them no flesh living is justified in the sight of God: and Noah was a rare instance of this character; there was none besides him in that wicked generation, so that he was very conspicuous and remarkable; and it was wonderful grace to him, that he should have this blessing to be righteous in an age so sadly corrupt, which was the cause of his being saved; for whoever are justified shall be saved eternally, Romans 8:30 as well as they are often saved from temporal calamities, see Isaiah 3:10.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
- The Ark Was Entered
2. ×××ר tÌ£aÌhoÌr âclean, fit for food or sacrifice.â
4. ×ק×Ö¼× yequÌm âstanding thing; what grows up, whether animal or plant.â Compare ק×× qaÌmaÌh âstalk, or standing corn.â
Genesis 7:1-4
Here is found the command to enter the ark. The general direction in the preceding chapter was given many years ago, before the ark was commenced. Now, when it is completed, a more specific command is issued. âFor thee have I seen righteous before me.â Noah has accepted the mercy of God, is therefore set right in point of law, and walks aright in point of practice. The Lord recognizes this indication of an adopted and renewed son. âIn this ageâ he and his were the solitary family so characterized.
Genesis 7:2-3
Of all clean cattle. - Here the distinction of clean and unclean animals meets us without any previous notice. How it became known to Noah we are not informed. From the former direction it appears that the animals were to enter by pairs. Now it is further arranged that there are to be seven pairs of the clean cattle and fowl, and only one pair of the unclean.
Genesis 7:4
Seven days after the issue of the command the rain is to commence, and continue for forty days and nights without ceasing. âEvery standing thingâ means every plant and animal on the land.
Genesis 7:5-9
The execution of the command is recorded and fully particularized with the additional circumstance of the age of Noah. âThe son of six hundred years,â in his six hundredth year. âWent they unto Noah.â They seem to have come under the influence of a special instinct, so that Noah did not require to gather them. Seven days were employed in receiving them, and storing provisions for them.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
CHAPTER VII
God informs Noah that within seven days he shall send a rain upon
the earth, that shall continue for forty days and nights; and
therefore commands him to take his family, with the different
clean and unclean animals, and enter the ark, 1-4.
This command punctually obeyed, 5-9.
In the seventeenth day of the second month, in the six hundredth
year of Noah's life, the waters, from the opened windows of heaven,
and the broken up fountains of the great deep, were poured out upon
the earth, 10-12.
The different quadrupeds, fowls, and reptiles come unto Noah, and
the Lord shuts him and them in, 13-16.
The waters increase, and the ark floats, 17.
The whole earth is covered with water fifteen cubits above the
highest mountains, 18-20.
All terrestrial animals die, 21-23.
And the waters prevail one hundred and fifty days, 24.
