Genesis 8:21

Study

       

21 Ja Issand tundis meeldivat lõhna ja Issand mõtles oma südames: 'Ma ei nea enam maad inimese pärast, sest inimese südame mõtlemised on kurjad ta lapsepõlvest peale; ma ei hävita ka enam kõike, mis elab, nõnda nagu ma olen teinud.

852. That the “seventh month” signifies what is holy, is abundantly evident from what has been shown before (n. 84-87, 395, 716). This holiness corresponds to what was said with reference to the celestial man (Genesis 2:3): that the seventh day was sanctified, because God rested therein.
