The Flood demonstrates that the same water which is a blessing – can also become a curse. And yet even the waters of judgment that bring destruction upon the earth can also bring salvation to God's people.
We turn today to Book 3 of Genesis – the generations of Noah. As we have seen, the phrase “these are the generations of” is really about the descendants of the person named. The generations of Adam was all about his descendants. And as we'll see in chapter 11, the generations of Terah is all about Abraham.
This may suggest to us that “the generations of Noah” is really about his descendants as well, because the story of the Flood is really the story of the salvation of humanity – which is why Peter will refer to the Flood as a type of baptism.
