00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,800
Hello, this is Father Paul and I'm glad we're taking this journey together to read the Bible

2
00:00:05,800 --> 00:00:09,440
in a year.

3
00:00:09,440 --> 00:00:14,960
Yesterday we heard about the beginning of the genealogy of Adam, of his family and how

4
00:00:14,960 --> 00:00:15,960
he came to be.

5
00:00:15,960 --> 00:00:21,160
Today we're going to hear about another major character, the next character in the story

6
00:00:21,160 --> 00:00:27,840
of salvation and that's Noah, his beginning, his genealogy and how he came to be.

7
00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:32,280
Today's reading is from Genesis chapters 5 and 6.

8
00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:33,800
Let's get started.

9
00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:35,360
Chapter 5

10
00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:37,520
This is the book of the genealogy of Adam.

11
00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:41,660
In the day that God created man, he made him in the likeness of God.

12
00:00:41,660 --> 00:00:46,480
He created them male and female, and blessed them and called them mankind in the day they

13
00:00:46,480 --> 00:00:47,820
were created.

14
00:00:47,820 --> 00:00:54,800
And Adam lived 130 years and begot a son in his own likeness, after his image and named

15
00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:56,360
him Seth.

16
00:00:56,360 --> 00:01:00,200
After he begot Seth, the days of Adam were 800 years.

17
00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:06,040
And he had sons and daughters, so all the days that Adam lived were 930 years and he

18
00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:07,280
died.

19
00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:10,880
Seth lived 105 years and begot Enosh.

20
00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:17,060
After he begot Enosh, Seth lived 807 years and had sons and daughters, so all the days

21
00:01:17,060 --> 00:01:21,560
of Seth were 912 years and he died.

22
00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:24,900
Enosh lived 90 years and begot Kainan.

23
00:01:24,900 --> 00:01:30,960
After he begot Kainan, Enosh lived 815 years and had sons and daughters, so all the days

24
00:01:30,960 --> 00:01:35,040
Enosh were 905 years and he died.

25
00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:38,880
Kainan lived 70 years and begot Mahalalel.

26
00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:45,320
After he begot Mahalalel, Kainan lived 840 years and had sons and daughters, so all the

27
00:01:45,320 --> 00:01:49,520
days of Kainan were 910 years and he died.

28
00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:54,680
Mahalalel lived 65 years and begot Jared.

29
00:01:54,680 --> 00:02:01,360
After he begot Jared, Mahalalel lived 830 years and had sons and daughters, so all the

30
00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:06,880
days of Mahalalel were 895 years and he died.

31
00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:11,300
Jared lived 162 years and begot Enoch.

32
00:02:11,300 --> 00:02:16,980
After he begot Enoch, Jared lived 800 years and had sons and daughters, so all the days

33
00:02:16,980 --> 00:02:21,920
of Jared were 962 years and he died.

34
00:02:21,920 --> 00:02:25,600
Enoch lived 65 years and begot Methuselah.

35
00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:32,560
After he begot Methuselah, Enoch walked with God 300 years and had sons and daughters,

36
00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:40,320
so all the days of Enoch were 365 years and Enoch walked with God and he was not for God

37
00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:42,520
took him.

38
00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:48,120
Methuselah lived 187 years and begot Lamech.

39
00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:56,320
After he begot Lamech, Methuselah lived 782 years and had sons and daughters, so all the

40
00:02:56,320 --> 00:03:01,800
days of Methuselah were 969 years and he died.

41
00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:08,120
Lamech lived 182 years and had a son and he called his name Noah, saying this one will

42
00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:13,720
comfort us concerning our work and the toil of our hands because of the ground which the

43
00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:16,000
Lord has cursed.

44
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:22,760
After he begot Noah, Lamech lived 595 years and had sons and daughters, so all the days

45
00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:28,280
of Lamech were 777 years and he died.

46
00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:34,800
And Noah was 500 years old and Noah begot Shem, Ham and Japheth.

47
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:39,480
Chapter 6 Now it came to pass, when men began to multiply

48
00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:43,620
on the face of the earth, and daughters were born to them, that the sons of God saw the

49
00:03:43,620 --> 00:03:48,480
daughters of men, that they were beautiful, and they took wives for themselves of all

50
00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:50,320
whom they chose.

51
00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:56,320
And the Lord said, My spirit shall not strive with man forever, for he is indeed flesh,

52
00:03:56,320 --> 00:04:00,240
yet his days shall be 120 years.

53
00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:05,560
There were giants on the earth in those days, and also afterward, when the sons of God came

54
00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:09,580
into the daughters of men, and they bore children to them.

55
00:04:09,580 --> 00:04:13,880
Those were the mighty men who were of old, men of renown.

56
00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:19,920
Then the Lord saw the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every intent

57
00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:24,080
of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.

58
00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:29,360
And the Lord was sorry that he had made man on the earth, and he was grieved in his heart.

59
00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:34,400
So the Lord said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth,

60
00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:38,840
both man and beast, creeping thing and birds of the air.

61
00:04:38,840 --> 00:04:44,480
For I am sorry that I have made them, but Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord.

62
00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:47,040
This is the genealogy of Noah.

63
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:50,800
Noah was a just man, perfect in his generations.

64
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:56,840
Noah walked with God, and Noah begot three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth.

65
00:04:56,840 --> 00:05:02,360
The earth was also corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence.

66
00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:07,920
So God looked upon the earth, and indeed it was corrupt, for all flesh had corrupted their

67
00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:09,880
ways on the earth.

68
00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:15,480
And God said to Noah, the end of all flesh has come before me, for the earth is filled

69
00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:17,920
with violence through them.

70
00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:21,000
And behold, I will destroy them with the earth.

71
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:23,600
Make yourself an ark of gopher wood.

72
00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:27,320
Make rooms in the ark, and cover it inside and outside with pitch.

73
00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:29,000
And this is how you shall make it.

74
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:34,920
The length of the ark shall be three hundred cubits, its width fifty cubits, and its height

75
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:36,280
thirty cubits.

76
00:05:36,280 --> 00:05:41,080
You shall make a window for the ark, and you shall finish it to a cubit from above, and

77
00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:43,720
set the door of the ark in its side.

78
00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:47,400
You shall make it with lower, second, and third decks.

79
00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:53,240
And behold, I myself am bringing flood waters on the earth, to destroy from under heaven

80
00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:56,860
all flesh in which is the breath of life.

81
00:05:56,860 --> 00:05:59,520
Everything that is on the earth shall die.

82
00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:05,000
But I will establish my covenant with you, and you shall go into the ark, you, your sons,

83
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:08,440
your wife, and your sons' wives with you.

84
00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:14,200
And of every living thing of all flesh, you shall bring two of every sort into the ark,

85
00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:16,120
to keep them alive with you.

86
00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:21,680
They shall be male and female, of the birds after their kind, of animals after their kind,

87
00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:25,680
and of every creeping thing of the earth after its kind.

88
00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:29,720
Two of every kind will come to you to keep them alive.

89
00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:35,520
And you shall take for yourself of all food that is eaten, and you shall gather it yourself,

90
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:38,440
and it shall be food for you and for them.

91
00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:48,680
Thus Noah did according to all that God commanded him, so he did.

92
00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:52,320
I hope you enjoyed today's reading as much as I did, and I look forward to seeing you

93
00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:54,360
again tomorrow to continue on our journey.

94
00:06:54,360 --> 00:07:04,520
God bless you and have a great day.
