Génesis 7:15 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 7:15

And they went in unto Noah into the ark
Noah went in first, and the creatures of themselves came to him, or were conducted by the ministry of angels; and they were delivered into his hands, and he placed them in the ark as was most convenient for them: it is very likely he went in and out as occasion required, for the better management and disposition of things; for he seems to be the last of all that went in, see ( Genesis 7:16 ) : two and two of all flesh, wherein is the breath of life;
they that went by sevens, yet being seven couples, as has been observed, as those which were only two or four, went by pairs: this is true of them all.

Génesis 7:15 In-Context

13 Ese mismo día Noé había entrado en la barca con su esposa y sus hijos —Sem, Cam y Jafet— y las esposas de ellos.

14 Con ellos en la barca había parejas de cada especie animal —domésticos y salvajes, grandes y pequeños— junto con aves de cada especie.

15 De dos en dos entraron en la barca, en representación de todo ser vivo que respira.

16 Entraron un macho y una hembra de cada especie, tal como Dios había ordenado a Noé. Luego el Señor
cerró la puerta detrás de ellos.

17 Durante cuarenta días, las aguas del diluvio crecieron hasta que cubrieron la tierra y elevaron la barca por encima de la tierra.
