וַיְבָרֶךְ אֱלֹהִים אֶת־נֹחַ וְאֶת־בָּנָיו וַיֹּאמֶר לָהֶם פְּרוּ וּרְבוּ וּמִלְאוּ אֶת־הָאָרֶץ׃
Bereshit 9:1
Arcana Coelestia # 973
973. Next the subject is the state of the man after the Flood, whom the Lord formed in such a way that He would be able to be present with him by means of charity. The Lord being present in this way, man would not from then on perish, as the final descendants of the Most Ancient Church had done, verses 8-11.
Genesis 9:8-11
8
God spoke to Noah and to his sons with him, saying,
9
"As for me, behold, I establish my covenant with you, and with your offspring after you,
10
and with every living creature that is with you: the birds, the livestock, and every animal of the earth with you, of all that go out of the ship, even every animal of the earth.
11
I will establish my covenant with you: all flesh will not be cut off any more by the waters of the flood, neither will there ever again be a flood to destroy the earth."
