Genesi 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.

16 "Esci dall’arca tu e la tua moglie, i tuoi figliuoli e le mogli dei tuoi figliuoli con te.
17 Fa’ uscire con te tutti gli animali che sono teco, d’ogni carne: uccelli, bestiame, e tutti i rettili che strisciano sulla terra, perché abbondino sulla terra, e figlino e moltiplichino sulla terra".
18 E Noè uscì con i suoi figliuoli, con la sua moglie, e con le mogli dei suoi figliuoli.
19 Tutti gli animali, tutti i rettili, tutti gli uccelli, tutto quel che si muove sulla terra, secondo le loro famiglie, uscirono dall’arca.
20 E Noè edificò un altare all’Eterno; prese d’ogni specie d’animali puri e d’ogni specie d’uccelli puri, e offrì olocausti sull’altare.
