DISCUSSION AND STUDY QUESTIONS:

Genesis 9 1.    Circle every occurrence of the word “covenant” in Genesis 9:1-17. How many times does this word occur? What are the specific stipulations of this covenant?
2.    In verse 1, what command did God give to Noah? How was this similar to the command He gave to Adam and Eve? What is the purpose of this command?
3.    In verses 2 and 3, what dominion did the Lord give to Noah? What are the implications of this in our lives today? 
4.    Why did God command Noah not to eat an animal’s blood in verse 4? What were some of the reasons for this command suggested in the study? How does this command relate to the early church’s practices in Acts 15:21? 
5.    What are God’s commands regarding humanity in Genesis 9:5 and 6? Why is life uniquely precious? How is this command different from the cavalier attitudes about life represented by Lamech back in Genesis 4:23?
6.    The study mentions that Genesis 9 records the institution of God’s mediatorial rule through government. How is government pictured in verses 5-6?
7.    What kind of promise did God make to Noah in verse 8? What sign did He give regarding this promise? When you see a rainbow, how frequently do you think of God’s covenant here with Noah? Why? 
8.    Looking over the covenant that God made with Noah, what aspects of this covenant are unconditional? How is mankind supposed to uphold this covenant?
9.    What did the study suggest for how God can have wrath towards sin but not still pour out His wrath every time we sin? 
10.    How does the flood account help you understand God’s holiness, wrath, and mercy? What kinds of changes ought this understanding produce in the life of God’s people?
11.    What did the study say were some of the long-term implications of Noah’s curse on Ham? Who are the descendants of Ham that the Jews interacted with later on?
12.    Noah was a righteous man, but was his family perfect? How does this fact provide us consolation when we sin?
13.    Does your life reflect that you are in a covenant with God to obey Him? What changes might the Lord want you to make regarding how you’re living?
