Génesis 8:18 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 8:18

And Noah went forth
Being obedient to the divine command, and no doubt with great pleasure in his countenance, and with a heart full of thankfulness for so great a deliverance;

and his sons, and his wife, and his sons' wives with him:
in all eight persons, and no more were saved in the ark, as Peter observes, ( 1 Peter 3:20 ) and the Arabic writers say F1, Noah and his sons built a city near the place where they came out of the ark, and called it Themanin, giving this as a reason of the name, we are eight, that is, who have escaped; so Berosus says F2, that the earth being dried of the waters, there were then only eight men in Armenia, from whence all mankind sprung.

Génesis 8:18 In-Context

16 Sal del arca tú, y contigo tu mujer, tus hijos y las mujeres de tus hijos.
17 Saca contigo todo ser viviente de toda carne que está contigo: aves, ganados y todo reptil que se arrastra sobre la tierra, para que se reproduzcan en abundancia sobre la tierra, y sean fecundos y se multipliquen sobre la tierra.
18 Salió, pues, Noé, y con él sus hijos y su mujer y las mujeres de sus hijos.
19 Y todas las bestias, todos los reptiles, todas las aves y todo lo que se mueve sobre la tierra, salieron del arca según sus familias.
20 Y edificó Noé un altar al SEÑOR, y tomó de todo animal limpio y de toda ave limpia, y ofreció holocaustos en el altar.
