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'm putting my rainbow in the clouds, a sign of the covenant between me and the Earth.

14 From now on, when I form a cloud over the Earth and the rainbow appears in the cloud,

15 I'll remember my covenant between me and you and everything living, that never again will floodwaters destroy all life.

16 When the rainbow appears in the cloud, I'll see it and remember the eternal covenant between God and everything living, every last living creature on Earth."

17 And God said, "This is the sign of the covenant that I've set up between me and everything living on the Earth."
