The Word Diet: Week 1 (Genesis 1-11)Օրինակ

DAY FIVE: GENESIS 8:13-9:17 

Today, we’re reading the end of the Flood narrative. (We’re skipping quite a bit in Noah’s account, but you can read that on your own or wait until we return to it later.) Noah was obedient and righteous, but through those, he was only able to save his family. (God’s agenda is far larger—as we’ll see with Abraham.) Even the salvation of his family has not gone as well as one would hope. Noah’s most famous sin is in the next passage (which we also skip this week). But carefully read the order of the exiting in 8:16,18 (7:13). Reflect on that and/or other aspects of today’s reading.
