Genesis 6:1-8
In time, when men began to multiply on earth, and daughters were born to them, 2 the sons of God saw that the daughters of men were attractive; and they took wives for themselves, whomever they chose. 3The Lord (Heb. יְהֹוָ֔ה YHVH) said, “My Spirit will not live in human beings forever, for they too are flesh; therefore their life span is to be 120 years.” 4 The N’filim (הַנְּפִלִ֞ים han·nə·p̄i·lîm) were on the earth in those days, and also afterwards, when the sons of God came in to the daughters of men, and they bore children to them; these were the ancient heroes, men of renown.
5 The Lord (יְהֹוָ֔ה YHVH) saw that the people on earth were very wicked, that all the imaginings of their hearts were always of evil only. 6 And the Lord (יְהֹוָ֔ה YHVH) regretted that he had made humankind on the earth; it grieved his heart. 7 And the Lord (יְהֹוָ֔ה YHVH) said, “I will wipe out humankind, whom I have created, from the whole earth; and not only human beings, but animals, creeping things and birds in the air; for I regret that I ever made them.” 8 But Noach found grace in the sight of the Lord (יְהֹוָ֔ה YHVH).
There is judgement and there is redemption.
Noah and his descendants were the only survival of The Flood and Earth was once again populated.
Our current world population can be traced to this ancestry of Noah and his three sons..
Genesis 9:18-19
18 The sons of Noach who went out from the ark were Shem, Ham and Yefet. Ham is the father of Kena‘an. 19 These three were the sons of Noach, and the whole earth was populated by them.
As human population increases so do sin and wickedness.
Scripture truth revealed God’s pattern of division, separation, and selection base on trust and acting in obedience according to God’s words in order for Man to be redeemed from sin, judgement, and death.
Once again, as before The Flood of Noah, we are subjected to the same pattern of division, separation, and selection base on trust and acting in obedience according to God’s words in order for us to be redeemed from sin and death and the judgement to come.
Moses who wrote Genesis is also credited with the Torah.
The Torah revealed God’s will of establishing the Messianic Era here on Earth with the appointment of God’s anointed The Mashiach (Heb. מָשִׁיחַ) and the magnification of God’s decree (Heb. חֹ֥ק choq) as depicted in Psalm 1 and 2
Psalm 1
1 Blessed is the man did not follow the counsel of the wicked neither did he stand in the way of sinners nor sit in the company of scorners.
2 But his desire is in the law of the Lord (Heb. יְהֹוָ֔ה YHVH), and in His law (תּוֹרָה torah) he meditates day and night.
3 He shall be as a tree planted beside rivers (פֶלֶג peleg) of water, which brings forth its fruit in its season, and its leaves do not wilt; and whatever he does prospers.
4 Not so the wicked (רָשְׁע rasha), who like chaff driven by the wind.
5 For this reason the wicked shall not stand in the judgment (מִשְׁפָט mishpat) nor shall sinners in the congregation of the righteous (צַדִיק tsaddiq).
6 For the Lord (יְהֹוָ֔ה YHVH) knows the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked shall perish.
Psalm 2
Why are the nations in an uproar, the peoples grumbling in vain?
2 The earth’s kings are taking positions, leaders conspiring together, against the Lord (Heb. יְהֹוָ֔ה YHVH) and his anointed (מְשִׁיחֽוֹ׃ Mashiach) 3 They cry, “Let’s break their fetters! Let’s throw off their chains!”
4 He who sits in heaven laughs; the Lord (יְהֹוָ֔ה YHVH) looks at them in derision.
5 Then in his anger he rebukes them, terrifies them in his fury. 6 “I myself have installed my king on Tziyon, my holy mountain.”
7 “I will proclaim the decree: the Lord (יְהֹוָ֔ה YHVH) said to me, ‘You are my son; today I became your father. 8 Ask of me, and I will make the nations your inheritance; the whole wide world will be your possession. 9 You will break them with an iron rod, shatter them like a clay pot.’”
10 Therefore, kings, be wise; be warned, you judges of the earth. 11 Serve the Lord (יְהֹוָ֔ה YHVH) with fear; rejoice, but with trembling. 12 Kiss the son, lest he be angry, and you perish along the way, when suddenly his anger blazes. How blessed are all who take refuge in him.
Holy Scripture with reference to everything written in the Torah and Prophets revealed God’s appointed time (Heb. מוֹעֵד moed) for the final and ultimate redemption of Man.
