Genesis 8:21

Studie

       

21 Yahweh smelled the pleasant aroma. Yahweh said in his heart, "I will not again curse the ground any more for man's sake, because the imagination of man's heart is evil from his youth; neither will I ever again strike everything living, as I have done.

864. Verse 7 And he sent out a raven, and it went out going back and forth until the waters dried up from over the earth.

'He sent out a raven, and it went out going back and forth' means that falsities were still giving trouble; 'a raven' means falsities, 'going back and forth' means that such was their state. 'Until the waters dried up from over the earth' means the apparent dispersal of falsities.
