1 και εγενετο ηνικα ηρξαντο οι ανθρωποι πολλοι γινεσθαι επι της γης και θυγατερες εγενηθησαν αυτοις

2 ιδοντες δε οι υιοι του θεου τας θυγατερας των ανθρωπων οτι καλαι εισιν ελαβον εαυτοις γυναικας απο πασων ων εξελεξαντο

3 και ειπεν κυριος ο θεος ου μη καταμεινη το πνευμα μου εν τοις ανθρωποις τουτοις εις τον αιωνα δια το ειναι αυτους σαρκας εσονται δε αι ημεραι αυτων εκατον εικοσι ετη

4 οι δε γιγαντες ησαν επι της γης εν ταις ημεραις εκειναις και μετ' εκεινο ως αν εισεπορευοντο οι υιοι του θεου προς τας θυγατερας των ανθρωπων και εγεννωσαν εαυτοις εκεινοι ησαν οι γιγαντες οι απ' αιωνος οι ανθρωποι οι ονομαστοι

5 ιδων δε κυριος ο θεος οτι επληθυνθησαν αι κακιαι των ανθρωπων επι της γης και πας τις διανοειται εν τη καρδια αυτου επιμελως επι τα πονηρα πασας τας ημερας

6 και ενεθυμηθη ο θεος οτι εποιησεν τον ανθρωπον επι της γης και διενοηθη

7 και ειπεν ο θεος απαλειψω τον ανθρωπον ον εποιησα απο προσωπου της γης απο ανθρωπου εως κτηνους και απο ερπετων εως των πετεινων του ουρανου οτι εθυμωθην οτι εποιησα αυτους

8 νωε δε ευρεν χαριν εναντιον κυριου του θεου

9 αυται δε αι γενεσεις νωε νωε ανθρωπος δικαιος τελειος ων εν τη γενεα αυτου τω θεω ευηρεστησεν νωε

10 εγεννησεν δε νωε τρεις υιους τον σημ τον χαμ τον ιαφεθ

11 εφθαρη δε η γη εναντιον του θεου και επλησθη η γη αδικιας

12 και ειδεν κυριος ο θεος την γην και ην κατεφθαρμενη οτι κατεφθειρεν πασα σαρξ την οδον αυτου επι της γης

13 και ειπεν ο θεος προς νωε καιρος παντος ανθρωπου ηκει εναντιον μου οτι επλησθη η γη αδικιας απ' αυτων και ιδου εγω καταφθειρω αυτους και την γην

14 ποιησον ουν σεαυτω κιβωτον εκ ξυλων τετραγωνων νοσσιας ποιησεις την κιβωτον και ασφαλτωσεις αυτην εσωθεν και εξωθεν τη ασφαλτω

15 και ουτως ποιησεις την κιβωτον τριακοσιων πηχεων το μηκος της κιβωτου και πεντηκοντα πηχεων το πλατος και τριακοντα πηχεων το υψος αυτης

16 επισυναγων ποιησεις την κιβωτον και εις πηχυν συντελεσεις αυτην ανωθεν την δε θυραν της κιβωτου ποιησεις εκ πλαγιων καταγαια διωροφα και τριωροφα ποιησεις αυτην

17 εγω δε ιδου επαγω τον κατακλυσμον υδωρ επι την γην καταφθειραι πασαν σαρκα εν η εστιν πνευμα ζωης υποκατω του ουρανου και οσα εαν η επι της γης τελευτησει

18 και στησω την διαθηκην μου προς σε εισελευση δε εις την κιβωτον συ και οι υιοι σου και η γυνη σου και αι γυναικες των υιων σου μετα σου

19 και απο παντων των κτηνων και απο παντων των ερπετων και απο παντων των θηριων και απο πασης σαρκος δυο δυο απο παντων εισαξεις εις την κιβωτον ινα τρεφης μετα σεαυτου αρσεν και θηλυ εσονται

20 απο παντων των ορνεων των πετεινων κατα γενος και απο παντων των κτηνων κατα γενος και απο παντων των ερπετων των ερποντων επι της γης κατα γενος αυτων δυο δυο απο παντων εισελευσονται προς σε τρεφεσθαι μετα σου αρσεν και θηλυ

21 συ δε λημψη σεαυτω απο παντων των βρωματων α εδεσθε και συναξεις προς σεαυτον και εσται σοι και εκεινοις φαγειν

22 και εποιησεν νωε παντα οσα ενετειλατο αυτω κυριος ο θεος ουτως εποιησεν

597. By “Noah” is signified a new church, which is to be called the Ancient Church, for the sake of distinction between the Most Ancient Church, which was before the flood, and that which was after the flood. The states of these two churches were entirely different. The state of the Most Ancient Church was such that they had from the Lord a perception of good and the derivative truth. The state of the Ancient Church, or “Noah” became such that they had a conscience of good and truth. Such as is the difference between having perception and having conscience, such was the difference of state of the Most Ancient and the Ancient Churches. Perception is not conscience: the celestial have perception; the spiritual have conscience. The Most Ancient Church was celestial, the Ancient was spiritual.

[2] The Most Ancient Church had immediate revelation from the Lord by consort with spirits and angels, as also by visions and dreams; whereby it was given them to have a general knowledge of what was good and true; and after they had acquired a general knowledge, these general leading principles, as we may call them, were confirmed by things innumerable, by means of perceptions; and these innumerable things were the particulars or individual things of the general principles to which they related. Thus were the general leading principles corroborated day by day; whatever was not in agreement with the general principles they perceived not to be so; and whatever was in agreement with them they perceived to be so. Such also is the state of the celestial angels.

[3] The general principles of the Most Ancient Church were heavenly and eternal truths-as that the Lord governs the universe, that all good and truth is from the Lord, that all life is from the Lord, that man’s Own is nothing but evil, and in itself is dead; with many others of similar character. And they received from the Lord a perception of countless things that confirmed and supported these truths. With them love was the principal of faith. By love it was given them of the Lord to perceive whatever was of faith, and hence with them faith was love, as was said before. But the Ancient Church became entirely different, concerning which of the Lord’s Divine mercy hereafter.
