Genesis 5:29The Passion Translationand named him Noah, saying, “He will relieve us from our hard work and painful toil, and from the ground that Yahweh cursed.” See the chapter |
Faith opened Noah’s heart to receive revelation and warnings from God about what was coming, even things that had never been seen. But he stepped out in reverent obedience to God and built an ark that would save him and his family. By his faith the world was condemned, but Noah received God’s gift of righteousness that comes by believing.
