Genesis 6:1 And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them,
Gen. 6:1 (1) {And it came to pass,} when [(Yod He Yod Vau) root He Yod He, seen in Gen. 4:8 as {it came to pass,} when they were as Final Mem Tau (Vau vowel) Yod He Beth, and a root He Yod He in Gen. 3:22 is become] (3) men [(Final Mem Daleth Aleph He) man or Adam - Heb. adham , ish, Gr. anthropos, also Gr. Adam, of the ground or taken out of the red earth.] (2) began [(Lamed (C)Heth He Yod Caph) root Lamed Lamed (C)Heth, Ch(aw) L(ah)L, Heb. chalal, to begin, in the sense of opening, a commencement, original, first time; K(ee).] to multiply [(Veth Resh Lamed) root Veth Veth Resh, R(aw) V(ah)V, multiply - Heb. rabab, raw-bab, increase, be many, be more, multiply; used again in Gen. 8:17 and multiply.] on the face of [(Yod Nun Pe Lamed Ayin) Heb. panim, face, P(uh)N(ay) I, could also mean presence; A(ah)L, Heb. al, al, above, over, upon, against.] the {earth} (ground) [(He Mem Daleth Aleph He) H(aw) A(uh-ah)Dh(aw) M (aw) H, the ground - Heb. adhamah, ad-aw-maw, ground, commonly means the tilled reddish soil of Palestine. It also comes from the Heb. adam, to show blood in the face, flush, be red. The word is in Gen. 6:1, 7, 20; 7:4, 8; 9:2.], and daughters [(Tau (Vau vowel) Nun Veth Vau) or V(aw) N(oh)Th, connected to Heb. ben, a son.

Genesis 6:2 That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose.
Gen. 6:2 (2) {That} the sons of God [(Final Mem Yod He Lamed Aleph He Yod Nun Veth) Heb. elohim, and as seen in Gen. 3:16 children is Final Mem Yod Nun Veth - son Heb. ben, Gr. huios, in Gen. 5:4 sons Final Mem Yod Nun Beth - son - Heb. ben, Gr. huios; B(aw) N(ih) YM . Note that as seen here in Gen. 6:2 the sons is shown only as Yod Nun Veth, V(uh)N(ay) Y, a variation, which could be children. Gen. 6:1-2, 4 may likewise involve angels (in this case they are fallen ones) or they may be demon possessed individuals, but others view these sons of God as kings/rulers/princes. Job 1:6, 2:1; 38:7, Psalm 89:6 are passages that refer to angels as such. The Elohim were the Sons of God (possibly angels), who controlled the elements, with a mathematical, philosophical, psychic science far beyond even our comprehension today. The Bible shows them spending a whole "day" bringing light back to the earth. A "day" may have been the time it takes for one precession of the equinoxes to make the equinoctial sun pass from one sign of the Zodiac to the preceding one, 2,160 years. As shown in Job 38:7 the sons of God Heb. ben, congratulated each other for the effort to disperse these clouds as they sang for joy."] (1) saw [((Vau vowel) Aleph Resh Yod Vau) root He Aleph Resh, R(aw) A(aw) H, saw Heb. raah, to see, And saw in Gen. 1:4 Aleph Resh Yod Vau, Gen. 2:19 to see Tau (Vau vowel) Aleph Resh, root He Aleph Resh.]

Genesis 6:4 There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown. In Hebrew the giants implies to reckless ferocity, impious characters who spread devastations and carnage far and wide.

Although in some sources the word for giants - Lamed Yod Pe Nun, N(uh)Ph(ee)L, Heb. nephiyl, nef-eel, or nephil, from Heb. naphal, to fall, cast down , thus means a feller, i.e. a bully or tyrant , giant.

The ASV marginal note gives its usual meaning: mighty men. Under giants the Nephilim were found in Canaan when the spies who felt like grasshoppers to them, went through the land (Num. 13:33; KJV giants).] {which} (that) were of old [(Final Mem Lamed (Vau vowel) Ayin Mem Resh Shin Aleph) M (ay) A(oh)L(aw) M that were of old or the past , old - Heb. owlam, o-lawm; or olam, concealed, i.e., vanishing point; time out of mind (past or future), eternity, sometimes for ever, everlasting, always, ancient (time), any more, (of) old (time), perpetual, at any time, (beginning of the ) world; A(uh-ah)Sh(eh)R, Heb. asher, ash-er, as a pronoun, who, which, what, that, when, where, how, because, in order that.], (the) men of [(Yod Shin Nun Aleph) the men of, A(ah)N(uh)Sh(ay) Y, AnuShai, men - Heb. enowsh, en-oshe, from Heb. anash, aw-nash, to be frail, feeble, incurable, sick, woeful, thus a mortal, which differs from Heb. adam, a human being, mankind, compare to Heb. iysh, eesh, a man.] renown [(Final Mem Shin He) Sh(ay) M , renown - Heb. shem, shame, meaning honor, authority, character , fame, name, renown , report ; although comparable to Heb. shamayim, shaw-mah-yim, dual of the unused singular, Heb. shameh, shaw-meh, to be lofty, the sky (as aloft), the area which the clouds move, as well as to the higher ether where the celestial bodies revolve- heaven(s).

Genesis 6:5 And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.
Gen. 6:5 (1) {And God} (Yahweh) saw [(He Vau He Yod Aleph Resh Yod Vau) compare to Gen. 6:7 the LORD is equivalent to IHVH or YHWH, YHVH, or Y(uh)H(oh)V(aw) H, Heb.

Genesis 6:6 And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart. God cannot change (Malachi 3:6; James 1:17) but can alter from mercy to judgment on mankind.
Gen. 6:6 {And it repented the LORD} (And Yahweh was sorry) [(He Vau He Yod Final Mem (C)Heth Nun Yod Vau) the LORD is equivalent to IHVH or YHWH, YHVH, or Y(uh)H(oh)V(aw) H, Heb.

Genesis 7:4 For yet seven days, and I will cause it to rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights; and every living substance that I have made will I destroy from off the face of the earth. I suspect that Genesis 7:4 is referring to the end of the Seventh Day or Seventh Age (a special period of time known to Adams descendants). Thus Gen. 7:4 may be rephrased: For (when, that, or because) in days (time, or special period of time) yet (again) seven, see Genesis 7:10 for further clarification.

Genesis 7:11 In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened. It is in this verse that the first occurrence of the Hebrew word chodesh, month enters the Scriptures as not one of the descendants of Adam up to Noah ever mentioned it as such. And from this point on in scripture it is used commonly to describe time of events, based on the recurrence of the new moon and the phases of the moon. Its as if the moon appeared during the Flood, and may have even been the cause of the Flood due to its interaction with the earth.

(The Eighth Day)
One commentary: Gods covenant with Noah declared that he would never again send a universal flood to destroy the whole inhabited earth (Gen. 9:8-17). This feature of the flood account is unique in that none of the accounts from Babylon, as the well-known Gilgamesh Epic, makes mention of the rainbow as the covenantal sign. In the Bible the rainbow is the first of the covenant signs and provides the key to understanding all of them, including the signs of baptism and the Lords Supper in the new covenant. The rainbow in the clouds speaks to man from God. God allowed Noah to understand what the bow means to him: a visible declaration that the Lord will never destroy the arth by flood. The rainbow is the Lords promise made visible. Genesis 9:16 And the bow shall be in the cloud; and I will look upon it, that I may remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is upon the earth.

For online publishing 1998 - original copyright 1995 -- The Alpha and the Omega, Volume I -- by Jim A. Cornwell Genesis 6-9 Hebrew Translation page 89 - file updated 6/26/98 A commentary on Genesis 9:25-27 It is obvious that Shem and his descendants were appointed the role among nations which is religious in character. The Semitic people as religious leaders, whether the true or false religion, not merely Judaism as the truth, but of Islam as a departure from, and the Babylonian cults which provided the defilement of the truth. Of Japheth we discover two things: the first is that he will be enlarged, and secondly is that he will take over a position originally appointed to Shem. The enlargement has been geographical and well as intellectual, as can be seen in that the children of Japheth (i.e. Indo-Europeans), have spread over the whole world (Europe, Russia, Australia, India, and of course, the New World) largely at the expense of those people who were not Indo-European. Although the Negro people and the Mongol races have also made equally tremendous contributions to modern technology. An event foretold in Genesis 9:27 presents that Japheth would one day and for a season assume the spiritual responsibility originally assigned to Shem, and was reiterated in Matthew 21:43, and initiated in Acts 18:6. Some factions suggest that it is curious that Canaan, rather than Ham, was cursed in Gen. 9:25. But it was suggested that Noah could not really curse Ham without discrediting himself, and he was forced to go one further generation and so by this means to attach the blame according to social custom where it really was - i.e., on Canaans father, Ham.
