2 Peter 3:6
_ _ Whereby — Greek, “By which” (plural). By means of which heavens and earth (in respect to the WATERS which flowed together from both) the then world perished (that is, in respect to its occupants, men and animals, and its then existing order: not was annihilated); for in the flood “the fountains of the great deep were broken up” from the earth (1) below, and “the windows of heaven” (2) above “were opened.” The earth was deluged by that water out of which it had originally risen. |
2 Peter 3:6
Through which — Heaven and earth, the windows of heaven being opened, and the fountains of the great deep broken up. The world that then was — The whole antediluvian race. Being overflowed with water, perished — And the heavens and earth themselves, though they did not perish, yet underwent a great change. So little ground have these scoffers for saying that all things continue as they were from the creation. |
2 Peter 3:6
(5) Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with (c) water, perished:
(5) Secondly he sets against them the universal flood, which was the destruction of the whole world.
(c) For the waters returning into their former place, this world, that is to say, this beauty of the earth which we see, and all living creatures which live upon the earth, perished. |
2 Peter 2:5 And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth [ person], a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly;
Genesis 7:10- 23 And it came to pass after seven days, that the waters of the flood were upon the earth. ... And every living substance was destroyed which was upon the face of the ground, both man, and cattle, and the creeping things, and the fowl of the heaven; and they were destroyed from the earth: and Noah only remained [ alive], and they that [ were] with him in the ark.
Genesis 9:15 And I will remember my covenant, which [ is] between me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and the waters shall no more become a flood to destroy all flesh.
Job 12:15 Behold, he withholdeth the waters, and they dry up: also he sendeth them out, and they overturn the earth.
Matthew 24:38- 39 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, ... And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
Luke 17:27 They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all.
