and if he didn’t spare the ancient world, but protected Noah, a preacher of righteousness, and seven others, , when he brought the flood on the world of the ungodly;
By faith Noah, after he was warned about what was not yet seen and motivated by godly fear, built an ark to deliver his family. By faith he condemned the world and became an heir of the righteousness that comes by faith.
Even if these three men #– #Noah, Daniel, and Job #– #were in it, they would rescue only themselves by their righteousness.’ This is the declaration of the Lord God.
