849. 'The waters abated at the end of a hundred and fifty days' means that temptations came to an end. This clearly follows from what has been said above. That 'a hundred and fifty days' means the finishing point is clear from what has been stated concerning the same number at Chapter 7:24. So here that same number means the point at which fluctuation ends and new life starts.
