  • Summary

  • Noah may seem like an odd story to start advent with, but what is advent but the observation that God remembers his promise to crush the head of the serpent, to deal with sin and that he has done so in Jesus. It is a remembering Christ's first coming and a sitting in the longing for his second. "But God remembered" is at the heart of the Noah story. And that central fact is what distinguishes this story from the other Ancient Near Eastern Flood stories and it is literally at the heart of the story, as both a big-picture thematic chiasm and the detailed numeric chiasm points us to Genesis 8:1. "But God remembered".
