• "and Jehovah shut him in." On the believing view, one cannot conceive any addition more pertinent, beautiful, or consoling.

In judgment He remembered mercy and provided generally for the preservation of creation; but He had His affections in a closer way for Noah, and, by that divine name which expressed the relationship, He meant to let, His people know in His imperishable word that He secured His faithful servant. (“The Early Chapters of Genesis: Chapter 7:11-16”)
