1 Y BENDIJO Dios á Noé y á sus hijos, y díjoles: Fructificad, y multiplicad, y henchid la tierra:

2 Y vuestro temor y vuestro pavor será sobre todo animal de la tierra, y sobre toda ave de los cielos, en todo lo que se moverá en la tierra, y en todos los peces del mar: en vuestra mano son entregados.

3 Todo lo que se mueve y vive, os será para mantenimiento: así como las legumbres y hierbas, os lo he dado todo.

4 Empero carne con su vida, que es su sangre, no comeréis.

5 Porque ciertamente demandaré la sangre de vuestras vidas; de mano de todo animal la demandaré, y de mano del hombre; de mano del varón su hermano demandaré la vida del hombre.

6 El que derramare sangre del hombre, por el hombre su sangre será derramada; porque á imagen de Dios es hecho el hombre.

7 Mas vosotros fructificad, y multiplicaos; procread abundantemente en la tierra, y multiplicaos en ella.

8 Y habló Dios á Noé y á sus hijos con él, diciendo:

9 Yo, he aquí que yo establezco mi pacto con vosotros, y con vuestra simiente después de vosotros;

10 Y con toda alma viviente que está con vosotros, de aves, de animales, y de toda bestia de la tierra que está con vosotros; desde todos los que salieron del arca hasta todo animal de la tierra.

11 Estableceré mi pacto con vosotros, y no fenecerá ya más toda carne con aguas de diluvio; ni habrá más diluvio para destruir la tierra.

12 Y dijo Dios: Esta será la señal del pacto que yo establezco entre mí y vosotros y toda alma viviente que está con vosotros, por siglos perpetuos:

13 Mi arco pondré en las nubes, el cual será por señal de convenio entre mí y la tierra.

14 Y será que cuando haré venir nubes sobre la tierra, se dejará ver entonces mi arco en las nubes.

15 Y acordarme he del pacto mío, que hay entre mí y vosotros y toda alma viviente de toda carne; y no serán más las aguas por diluvio para destruir toda carne.

16 Y estará el arco en las nubes, y verlo he para acordarme del pacto perpetuo entre Dios y toda alma viviente, con toda carne que hay sobre la tierra.

17 Dijo, pues, Dios á Noé: Esta será la señal del pacto que he establecido entre mí y toda carne que está sobre la tierra.

18 Y los hijos de Noé que salieron del arca fueron Sem, Châm y Japhet: y Châm es el padre de Canaán.

19 Estos tres son los hijos de Noé; y de ellos fué llena toda la tierra.

20 Y comenzó Noé á labrar la tierra, y plantó una viña:

21 Y bebió del vino, y se embriagó, y estaba descubierto en medio de su tienda.

22 Y Châm, padre de Canaán, vió la desnudez de su padre, y díjolo á sus dos hermanos á la parte de afuera.

23 Entonces Sem y Japhet tomaron la ropa, y la pusieron sobre sus propios hombros, y andando hacia atrás, cubrieron la desnudez de su padre teniendo vueltos sus rostros, y así no vieron la desnudez de su padre.

24 Y despertó Noé de su vino, y supo lo que había hecho con él su hijo el más joven;

25 Y dijo: Maldito sea Canaán; Siervo de siervos será á sus hermanos.

26 Dijo más: Bendito Jehová el Dios de Sem, Y séale Canaán siervo.

27 Engrandezca Dios á Japhet, Y habite en las tiendas de Sem, Y séale Canaán siervo.

28 Y vivió Noé después del diluvio trescientos y cincuenta años.

29 Y fueron todos los días de Noé novecientos y cincuenta años; y murió.

1063. And Ham is the father of Canaan. That this signifies that from the corrupted church sprang worship in externals without internals, which worship is signified by “Canaan” is likewise evident from what follows; for what is contained in this verse is premised to what is in the following verses. That “Ham” signifies the corrupted church, that is, those who make faith separate from charity the principal of their faith, is evident in David:

He smote all the firstborn in Egypt, the beginning of strength, in the tents of Ham (Psalms 78:51).

By “the firstborn in Egypt” was represented faith without charity. That faith is called the firstborn of the church may be seen above (n. 352, 367) and that faith is thence called the “beginning of strength” as here in David, may be seen in Genesis 49:3, in what is said of Reuben, who represented faith because he was the firstborn of Jacob, and is called the “beginning of strength.”

The “tents of Ham” are the worship therefrom. That “tents” signify worship may be seen above n. 414). Egypt is hence called the “land of Ham” (Psalms 105:23, 27; 106:22). Such men, who in the Ancient Church were called “Ham” because they lived a life of all cupidities, merely prating that they could be saved by faith howsoever they lived, appeared to the ancient people black from the heat of cupidities, and from this were called “Ham.” Ham is said to be the “father of Canaan” for the reason that such men care nothing how a man lives, provided he frequents sacred rites—for they do still desire some worship. But external worship is the only worship for them; internal worship, which belongs solely to charity, they reject. Hence Ham is said to be “the father of Canaan.”

367. It is unnecessary to confirm these things by similar passages from the Word, except so far as to prove that charity is the “brother” of faith, and that a “field” signifies whatever is of doctrine. That charity is the “brother” of faith is evident to everyone from the nature or essence of faith. This brotherhood was represented by Esau and Jacob, and was the ground of their dispute about the birthright and the consequent dominion. It was also represented by Pharez and Zarah, the sons of Tamar by Judah (Genesis 38:28-29, 30); and by Ephraim and Manasseh (Genesis 48:13-14); and in both of these, as well as in other similar cases, there is a dispute about the primogeniture and the consequent dominion. For both faith and charity are the offspring of the church. Faith is called a “man” as was Cain, in verse 1 of this chapter, and charity is called a “brother” as in Isaiah 19:2; Jeremiah 13:14 and other places. The union of faith and charity is called “the covenant of brethren” (Amos 1:9). Similar to the signification of Cain and Abel, was that of Jacob and Esau, as just said; in that Jacob also was desirous of supplanting his brother Esau, as is evident also in Hosea:

To visit upon Jacob his ways, according to his doings will He recompense him; he supplanted his brother in the womb (Hosea 12:2-3).

But that Esau, or the charity represented by Esau, should nevertheless at length have the dominion, appears from the prophetic prediction of their father Isaac:

By thy sword shalt thou live, and shalt serve thy brother; and it shall come to pass, when thou hast the dominion, that thou shalt break his yoke from off thy neck (Genesis 27:40).Or what is the same, the Church of the Gentiles, or new church, is represented by Esau, and the Jewish Church is represented by Jacob; and this is the reason for its being so often said that the Jews should acknowledge the Gentiles as brethren; and in the Church of the Gentiles, or primitive church, all were called brethren, from charity. Such as hear the Word and do it are likewise called brethren by the Lord (Luke 8:21); those who hear are such as have faith; those who do are such as have charity; but those who hear, or say that they have faith, and do not, or have not charity, are not brethren, for the Lord likens them unto fools (Matthew 7:24, 26).
