    Ge.8:18-22 "The earth" (2 of 2)

    "I will not again curse the ground any more for man's sake."

    Cursed was the ground for Adam's sake and it only applies for his sons. The Spirit refers to the fall of man, "Cursed is the ground for thy sake;" The usage of 'anymore' is significant. What has gone forth at that moment out of the mouth of God shall continue its work so when God commanded the Law to Moses it is for the nations under the curse,'for thy sake'.. For those who are justified by faith their works the fruits prove they are freed from condemnation. (Ro.8:1). "Wherefore thou art no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ."(Gal.4:7)

    "While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease."(8:22) What is the significance of 'and day and night shall not cease" The Spirit is referring the everlasting covenant. God's response to smelling sweet savor was in context of the covenant . The Day decreed for Man . "Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years."(Ge.1:14-15)

    "lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth" is the way the Word declares the glory of God. It is under day four.
