Genesis Lesson 30: Noah, Drunk and Naked {What?!} The Caldwell Commentaries Podcast

- Religion & Spirituality
Genesis 9:18-29
It would have been "nice," humanly speaking, if the Bible's account of Noah had ended with the beautiful rainbow placed in the sky as God's token "sign" of His covenant promise with Noah and the perpetual generations of mankind. But, this is not where Noah's story ended - it moves from rainbows to shadows because Scripture does not conceal the "spots and blemishes" of men, including the "heroes" of faith, such as Noah (and Abraham, Jacob, Isaac, Moses, David, Peter, Paul, etc.). It presents the truth about man, which thereby demonstrates to us that no individual is above sin. "For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God" (Romans 3:23), which is why we so desperately need a Saviour!
In this lesson, we look at (1) The Descendants of Noah, (2) The Drunkenness of Noah (three parts - Noah's Disgrace; Ham's Disrespect; Shem's Decency), (3) The Declaration of Noah {fascinating prophecy about the descendants of his three sons), and (4) The Death of Noah (the third longest living member of the human race).
