Genesi 7:12 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 7:12

And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights,
&c.] So long it was falling upon it, after the windows of heaven were opened. Aben Ezra would have it, that all things were in such confusion, during the flood, that there was no difference between day and night, since, it is said, "day and night shall not cease any more"; and that after the waters ceased, then Noah knew that forty days and nights had passed, for God had revealed this secret to him; but the text seems more to make against him than for him.

Genesi 7:12 In-Context

10 E, al termine dei sette giorni, avvenne che le acque del diluvio furono sulla terra.
11 L’anno seicentesimo della vita di Noè, il secondo mese, il diciassettesimo giorno del mese, in quel giorno, tutte le fonti del grande abisso scoppiarono e le cateratte del cielo s’aprirono.
12 E piovve sulla terra per quaranta giorni e quaranta notti.
13 In quello stesso giorno, Noè, Sem, Cam e Jafet, figliuoli di Noè, la moglie di Noè e le tre mogli dei suoi figliuoli con loro, entrarono nell’arca:
14 essi, e tutti gli animali secondo le loro specie, e tutto il bestiame secondo le sue specie, e tutti i rettili che strisciano sulla terra, secondo le loro specie, e tutti gli uccelli secondo le loro specie, tutti gli uccelletti, tutto quel che porta ali.
