Versus 1-4 are curious regarding the Nephilim (vs. 4 "They were the heroes of old, men of renown."). Ideas regarding the Nephilim can be found here. Thanks Wikipedia!
There is much to be amazed by in this chapter, and the most amazing thing to me is Noah's acceptance of God's decree and his faith in the covenant. It is so hard for us to believe that God has been, is, and will forever be faithful to his covenant with us as we go through our own tribulations. And here's Noah saying"Okay, it is going to rain, but God is going to save me in this big boat." When the thought of RAIN or BOAT have never been conceived!
And it is always amazing, though it shouldn't be, that God is faithful. Always. Every day. How do we question it?
