Bible Commentary

Genesis 9:29

The chapter ends the same way Genesis 5 ended — 'and he died.' But Noah's death is not the ending. It is a transition. He was faithful in his generation. His legacy — faith, obedience, the covenant — lives on. And through his line came the Messiah.

Memory phrase: Faithful lives leave lasting legacies.

Talk about it: How do you want to be remembered when your life is done?

Prayer: God, when my life is over, let people say that I walked with You.
