In the days of Noah, humanity had become utterly corrupt. God decided to wipe out the human race. Only one righteous man (and his family) was left alive.
At least, that's the way we usually say it. But that's not what Genesis says. Genesis says that the earth was corrupt in God's sight… for all flesh had corrupted their way on the earth. And God said to Noah, ‘I have determined to make an end of all flesh, for the earth is filled with violence through them.'
Our summary focuses on man. Genesis focuses on the earth, and “all flesh in which is the breath of life.â€
Why is this important? Because you need to understand that people are not isolated. We are not isolated from each other – we are connected as the human race. We are not isolated from creation – remember that God said, “Cursed is the ground because of you!â€
All of creation labors under the curse – because of man.
God created man in his image – and he gave Adam and Eve dominion over the earth.
And that meant that if Adam and Eve failed in their rule, then all the earth would be plunged into disorder and dismay because of them.
