Genesis 7:1

¹ Potom řekl Hospodin k Noé: Vejdiž ty i všecka čeled tvá do korábu; nebo jsem tě viděl spravedlivého před sebou v národu tomto.

Arcana Coelestia # 733

733. Verse 6 And Noah was a son of six hundred years, and a flood of waters came to be over the earth.

'Noah was a son of six hundred years' means his initial state of temptation. 'A flood of waters over the earth' means the onset of temptation.
