7 So the LORD said, “I will wipe mankind, whom I have created, from the face of the earth-everything from mankind to animals, including creatures that move on the ground and birds of the air, for I regret that I have made them.” … 11 The earth was ruined in the sight of God the earth was filled with violence. 6 The LORD regretted that he had made mankind on the earth, and he felt highly offended. Every inclination of the thoughts of their minds was only evil all the time. 5 But the LORD saw that the wickedness of mankind had become great on the earth. They were the mighty heroes of old, the famous men. They will remain for one hundred and twenty more years.” 4 The Nephilim were on the earth in those days (and also after this), when the sons of God were having sexual relations with the daughters of mankind, who gave birth to their children. 3 So the LORD said, “My spirit will not remain in mankind indefinitely, since they are mortal. Thus they took wives for themselves from any they chose. A World Ripe For Judgmentġ When mankind began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born to them, 2 the sons of God saw that the daughters of mankind were beautiful. In this lesson I will seek to heed the “law of proportion,” noting those parts of our passage which receive the most emphasis. These matters may be of interest to some, and I wish them well in their pursuit of them, so long as it does not prevent them from taking heed to the major thrust of this passage.

Neither will I try to explain all the differences between the pre-flood world and the post-flood world. This is partly because it is not my area of expertise, and partly because it is not the point of the passage.

I must conclude that the text is somewhat vague, which should caution us about being too dogmatic on such matters.įurther, I am not going to attempt to explain how the flood came about in scientific terms. If knowing the precise meaning of these terms were crucial to the message of this passage, then I’m sure God would have spent more time on them and would have made the meaning very clear to us. Good scholars differ over the interpretation of these terms. Among these is the question of the identity of the “sons of God” and the Nephilim in the first verses of Genesis 6. Our purpose in this lesson is to look at the “big picture,” and thus I cannot allow myself the luxury of any rabbit trials.

In my earlier series on the Book of Genesis, four lessons were required to cover the same Scriptures that we shall deal with in but one lesson. But because of Noah, a remnant was preserved, and so the human race had a new beginning. The whole world is corrupt and fit only for destruction, and if it were not for one righteous man – Noah – the entire human race would have been wiped out forever. We see it once again in the account of the flood. We see it with Cain and with Seth in Genesis 4 and 5, where the sin or righteousness of each impacts future generations. We see the same principle at work in Genesis 3, where Adam’s disobedience brings sin, condemnation, and curses upon the entire human race. It was also true of the period of the judges. This was the case, for example, with Israel’s kings. In the Bible, we can see that the fate of many people often rests on the character and conduct of just one man. We should have learned from this election that the actions of a very few people will affect the destiny of the candidates, not to mention the citizens of our great country. This is due, in part, to the tremendous voter turnout for this election. As the days pass, the margin between victory and defeat gets smaller and smaller, not only in the state of Florida, but in a few other states as well. One week later, as I am finishing this manuscript, we still don’t know who has won the election. This past week, the election was held for the presidency of the United States.
