How did God bless Noah and his sons?
By speaking to them the words, ‘Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth’ (Genesis 9:1).
Why did God put the fear and dread of man on every beast of the earth?
Because man is superior to all the other creation, that is, the beasts of the field, all cattle, all birds, and all the fish of the sea. This is because only man is created in the image of God (Genesis 9:2; Genesis 9:6; Genesis 1:27). Also, only man was created to have dominion over all the other creations of God (Genesis 1:26).
What did God give to Noah and his sons as food after the flood?
Every moving thing that lives (that is, all flesh) and the green herbs. This means man began eating meat after the flood. (Genesis 9:4)
Why did God command Noah not to eat flesh with blood?
Because life is the blood. (Genesis 9:4)
Why did God command Noah that man shall not kill a fellow man?
Because all men are created in the image of God (Genesis 9:6).
What did God decree as the penalty for someone proven guilty of committing murder?
The death penalty. God said that whoever kills a fellow man should also be put to death by men.
What covenant did God establish with Noah, his descendants, the birds, the cattle, and every beast that went out of the ark?
That He would never again destroy all flesh by the waters of the flood, and that never again would there be a flood to destroy the earth. (Genesis 9:8-11)
What did God set up as the sign for the covenant He had established with Noah, his descendants, and all living creatures?
He set the rainbow in the sky. (Genesis 9:13)
How would the appearance of the rainbow in the cloud deter God from destroying the earth with a flood?
The appearance of the rainbow would make God ‘remember’ His covenant with all the flesh of the earth that the waters shall never become a flood to destroy all flesh. (Genesis 9:12-17)
Among the three sons of Noah, who was the father of Canaan?
Ham (Genesis 9:18)
Who populated the earth again with humans after the flood?
The three sons of Noah, that is, Shem, Ham, and Japheth. (Genesis 9:19)
What did Noah plant after becoming a farmer?
A vineyard. (Genesis 9:20)
What happened to Noah after he drank of the wine of the vineyard?
He became uncovered. (Genesis 9:21)
What sin did Ham commit?
He saw the nakedness of his father, Noah. (Genesis 9:22)
What did Shem and Japheth do after Ham had told them that their father was lying naked in his tent?
They took a garment, laid it on both their shoulders, and went backward and covered the nakedness of their father while their faces were turned away. (Genesis 9:23)
Why did Noah curse Canaan, and yet it was Ham who had erred?
Because God had blessed Noah and all his sons after they came out of the ark (Genesis 9:1). This means that a curse placed on either of them would not take effect. So, Ham’s son called Canaan had to bear the brunt of his father’s error. (Genesis 9:25)
What curse did Noah pronounce over Canaan?
He declared that Canaan would remain a servant to his brethren. (Genesis 9:25)
What blessing did Noah pronounce upon Shem and Japheth?
· He blessed the LORD God of Shem and declared that Canaan would be his servant. (Genesis 9:26)
· He prayed that God would enlarge Japheth that he may dwell in the tents of Shem; but again declared that Canaan would serve him. (Genesis 9:27)
How long did Noah live after the flood?
He lived for three hundred and fifty years. (Genesis 9:28)
