Genesis 9:15 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 9:15

And I will remember my covenant which is between me and
you, and every living creature of all flesh
See ( Genesis 9:11 Genesis 9:12 ) and the waters shall no more become a flood to destroy all flesh;
this is repeated to remove those fears which would naturally arise, upon the gathering of the clouds in the heavens; but as God would remember his covenant, which he can never forget; and is always mindful of, so men, when they see the bow in the cloud, may be assured, that whatever waters are in the heavens, they shall never be suffered to fall in such quantity as to destroy all creatures as they have done.

Genesis 9:15 In-Context

13 I am putting my rainbow in the cloud - it will be there as a sign of the covenant between myself and the earth.
14 Whenever I bring clouds over the earth, and the rainbow is seen in the cloud;
15 I will remember my covenant which is between myself and you and every living creature of any kind; and the water will never again become a flood to destroy all living beings.
16 The rainbow will be in the cloud; so that when I look at it, I will remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of any kind on the earth."
17 God said to Noach, "This is the sign of the covenant which I have established between myself and every living creature on the earth."
