 Noah had an oracular warning about things not yet seen, was himself warned and moved with godly fear. So the godly Jewish remnant will be at the end of the age, who pass through that solemn time of divine judgment, and emerge to inherit the earth as well as righteousness according to faith, for lack of which the world was condemned. (Hebrews 11:4-7 by W. Kelly)
 The godly Jewish remnant corresponds to Noah, looking by-and-by for deliverance through judgment. But we have surely to share his faith also in testifying of that day and the world's doom, a revealed element of separating power. (Hebrews 11:4-7 by W. Kelly)
 There is a general principle which accepts the testimony of God respecting the judgment that will fall upon men, and the means provided by God for escaping it: this belongs to every believer. (Hebrews 11 by J.N. Darby)
 Enoch represents the saints of the present time; Noah, the Jewish remnant. (Hebrews 11 by J.N. Darby)
 {v.4-7} In the previous case we have seen a faith which, after owning a Creator-God, recognizes the great principles of the relations of man with God, and that onwards to the end upon earth. (Hebrews 11 by J.N. Darby)
 In Noah we see how faith escapes the judgment of God. (Faith Drawing Nigh to God: Hebrews 11:4-7 by H. Smith)
