Context — The Great Flood

11In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, on the seventeenth day of the second month, all the fountains of the great deep burst forth, and the floodgates of the heavens were opened. 12And the rain fell upon the earth for forty days and forty nights.

13On that very day Noah entered the ark, along with his sons Shem, Ham, and Japheth, and his wife, and the three wives of his sons—

14they and every kind of wild animal, livestock, crawling creature, bird, and winged creature. 15They came to Noah to enter the ark, two by two of every creature with the breath of life.

Genesis 7:13 Summary

Genesis 7:13 tells us that Noah and his family entered the ark on the same day the flood began, which shows their obedience to God's commands. This verse reminds us that God is a God of urgency and timing, and He wants us to be ready to follow Him at all times, just like Noah was. As we read in Genesis 6:22, Noah did everything just as God commanded him, and this is a great example for us to follow. By entering the ark, Noah and his family were saved from the flood, which is a picture of how Jesus saves us from sin (as seen in 1 Peter 3:20).

Frequently Asked Questions

Why did Noah and his family enter the ark on the very same day the flood began?

Noah and his family entered the ark on the same day the flood began because God had instructed them to do so, as seen in Genesis 7:13, and also because the flood was a judgment from God, as mentioned in Genesis 6:17, and they needed to be safe inside the ark to escape the coming flood.

Who else entered the ark with Noah and his family?

According to Genesis 7:13-14, the wives of Noah's sons, as well as the animals, also entered the ark, as God had commanded Noah to take two of every kind of animal into the ark, as mentioned in Genesis 6:20.

What is the significance of the phrase 'on that very day' in Genesis 7:13?

The phrase 'on that very day' emphasizes the timing and urgency of the situation, highlighting that Noah and his family entered the ark just as the flood was beginning, demonstrating their obedience to God's command, as seen in Genesis 6:22 and Genesis 7:5.

How does this verse relate to the overall story of the flood in Genesis?

Genesis 7:13 is a pivotal verse in the story of the flood, as it marks the moment when Noah and his family enter the ark, which serves as a symbol of salvation and redemption, as mentioned in 1 Peter 3:20, and sets the stage for the events that will unfold in the subsequent chapters of Genesis.

Reflection Questions

What does the obedience of Noah and his family teach us about trusting in God's plan, especially in times of uncertainty?
How can we apply the principle of prompt obedience, as seen in Noah's actions, to our own lives and walk with God?
What does the fact that Noah's sons and their wives entered the ark with him reveal about the importance of family unity and following God's commands?
In what ways can we, like Noah, be prepared to take a stand for God and His commands, even if it means going against the norms of the world around us?

Gill's Exposition on Genesis 7:13
