Genesis 6:9

[Here comes a new "toledot unit" (the fourth in Genesis). The Hebrew word toledot is used eleven times in Genesis, see Gen. 2:4; 5:1; 6:9; 10:1; 11:10, 27; 25:12, 19; 36:1, 9; 37:2. The use of numbers and figures is special and ties this unit together. The word "earth" is used 40 times. The number seven and multiples of seven are also common. The Lord (Yahweh) is mentioned seven times. God (Elohim) is mentioned 14 times (7 x 2). God speaks seven times to Noah, there are seven "do" in connection with the instructions. The verb to destroy (found at the beginning and end) is used seven times. In the conclusion, the word "covenant" is used seven times. The number seven is used on seven occasions (twice it is doubled so that it says "seven-seven"; in total, the word is used 9 times). Water is mentioned 21 times (3 x 7) and meat is mentioned 14 times (2 x 7).]
This is the continuing story of Noah (Hebr. Noach) (his genealogy/family tree – Hebr. toledot). Noah was a righteous man and perfect among his contemporaries. Noah walked [in constant communion] with God (Elohim).
[This is the first time the word righteous (Hebr. tsadik) is used. A related word from the same root is tsedaqah, which is often translated as a voluntary gift to the poor and needy. The Bible specifically mentions widows, orphans/fatherless children, and strangers within your gates. Giving tsedaqah is something that virtually all religious Jews do in some form. Righteousness and being righteous or living a righteous life are therefore closely linked to ensuring that those in need in my vicinity, through my voluntary gifts, have what they need.]
