Footnotes
| 237 | Genesis 6:7 I wipe out. This is the same verb, machah that forms the name Mehujael, the great-grandson of Cain. See Genesis 4:18. The perfect have cut out signifies the end of the story of God’s creative work of Adam, when he wipes him out. |
| 238 | Genesis 6:7 Take note that God says he repented that he made them and not that he cut out them. There is a difference. |
