Genesis 9:27 NASB,NASB

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Genesis 9:18-29

Noah’s Three Sons Genesis 9:18-29 Noah’s sin reminds us how weak are the best of men; liable to fall, even after the most marvelous deliverances. The love of strong drink will drag a preacher of righteousness into the dust. But if our brethren sin, let us not parade or tell their faults, but cover them with the mantle of divine love. We may abhor the sin, but let us restore such an one in the spirit of meekness, remembering that we also may be tempted. See Galatians 6:1-18 :l-4 . The ... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Genesis 9:1-29

The new order in human affairs was initiated by the bestowment of a blessing on Noah and his sons. The first note of change is seen in the word which declared man's relation to the lower orders. In Eden man had governed by love and his own kingliness. With the loss of that kingliness resulting from his disobedience and rebellion, he had lost his true power of dominion, and that must now be exercised by fear and dread directly implanted by God in all the lower orders of life over which man was... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Genesis 9:1-29

“The Histories of the Sons of Noah” - The Flood (Genesis 6:9 b - Genesis 10:1 a) - TABLET IV It has been common practise among a large number of scholars to seek to split the flood narrative into different so-called ‘documents’. This has partly resulted from not comparing them closely enough with ancient writings as a whole and partly from over-enthusiasm for a theory. There is little real justification for it. Repetitiveness was endemic among ancient writings, and is therefore not a hint of... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Genesis 9:27

‘God enlarge (yaphth) Japheth and let him dwell in the tents of Shem, and let Canaan be his servant.’ The word ‘enlarge’ is a play on Japheth’s name. In 1 Chronicles 5:10 ‘dwell in the tents of’ suggests being subjugated. However here it more probably refers to them receiving benefits from ‘Shem’. The ‘enlargement’ suggests blessing but also looks forward to the increase of the nations in the next chapter, which is of course part of that blessing. Note that Canaan is to be servant to both. His... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Genesis 9:18-29

Genesis 9:18-Joel : . The Drunkenness of Noah; his Curse and his Blessings.— In this section Genesis 9:28 f. belongs to P. If Genesis 5:32, Genesis 7:6, Genesis 9:28 f. are read together, we have an account of Noah similar to the rest of the genealogy in Genesis 5. Genesis 9:18-Daniel : is from J, but not entirely from the same stratum. Genesis 9:18 f. belongs to J’ s genealogical table in Genesis 10. Genesis 9:20-Daniel : has close points of contact with Genesis 4:17-Jeremiah :; Noah, like... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Genesis 9:27

God shall enlarge Japheth; or, enlarge to Japheth. Understand here his place, as Genesis 26:22; Psalms 4:1, or his border; which was very literally made good to him, because he had a very numerous posterity; and by them he possessed the largest part of the world, even all Europe, a great part of Asia, and it is probable America also. Or, God shall persuade Japheth to do what follows, to dwell in Shem’s tents, where God dwelleth; and so to be reunited to his brother Shem both in affection and in... read more

CRITICAL NOTES.—Genesis 9:20. And Noah began to be a husbandman] Heb. The man of the ground. Like the Gr. γεωργος, and the Lat. Agricola. As the Heb. has the article, the meaning is conveyed that such had been his occupation, and it is now resumed after the interruption of the flood.—Planted a vineyard] The first mention of the culture of the grape. This was well known to have been the chief occupation of the Western Asiatics, chiefly Syria and Palestine.—Genesis 9:21. He was uncovered] More... read more

Chapter 9And God blessed Noah and his sons, and said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the eaRuth ( Genesis 9:1 ).And so the commandment that was given to Adam at the beginning is now given to Noah because we're starting all over again with the race of men. That race that began with Adam was wiped out with the exception of Noah and his three sons with their wives. And so now we're starting over again to fill the earth, multiple, fill the earth.Now the commandment is to fill the... read more

Genesis 9:4. But the blood ye shall not eat. This prohibition of blood is repeated. Leviticus 17:0. Deuteronomy 12:0. And being connected with murder in the following verse, we are taught to abstain from imitating the ferocity of wild beasts, which lick the blood of their prey. Blood is also the life of the sacrifices offered up for sin; and our having been redeemed with the precious blood of Christ, the apostles have forbidden the use of blood to christians. Acts 15:29. A third reason... read more
