16
και το τοξον θελει εισθαι εν τη νεφελη· και θελω βλεπει αυτο, δια να ενθυμωμαι την παντοτεινην διαθηκην την μεταξυ Θεου και παντος εμψυχου ζωου εκ πασης σαρκος ητις ειναι επι της γης.
Γένεση 9:16
Arcana Coelestia #1057
1057. Verse 17 And God said to Noah, This is the sign of the covenant which I am establishing between Me and all flesh that is on the earth.
'God said to Noah' means that the Church would know this. 'This is the sign of the covenant which I am establishing between Me and all flesh that is on the earth' means that it was a token of the Lord's presence in charity not only with the member of the Church but also with him who is outside the Church.
