Bible Commentary

Genesis 6:10

The three sons are introduced here and will become significant later in Genesis. Every family member matters in God's plan. Noah's faithfulness would be a shelter not just for himself but for his whole household.

Memory phrase: Shem, Ham, and Japheth.

Talk about it: How can a parent's faithfulness to God bless their whole family?

Prayer: God, thank You for my family. Please bless the people I love.
