| 1 And God remembered Noah, and every living thing, and all the cattle that was with him in the ark: and God made a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters asswaged;
2 The fountains also of the deep and the windows of heaven were stopped, and the rain from heaven was restrained;
3 And the waters returned from off the earth continually: and after the end of the hundred and fifty days the waters were abated.
4 And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, upon the mountains of Ararat.
5 And the waters decreased continually until the tenth month: in the tenth month, on the first day of the month, were the tops of the mountains seen.
6 And it came to pass at the end of forty days, that Noah opened the window of the ark which he had made:
7 And he sent forth a raven, which went forth to and fro, until the waters were dried up from off the earth.
8 Also he sent forth a dove from him, to see if the waters were abated from off the face of the ground;
9 But the dove found no rest for the sole of her foot, and she returned unto him into the ark, for the waters were on the face of the whole earth: then he put forth his hand, and took her, and pulled her in unto him into the ark.
10 And he stayed yet other seven days; and again he sent forth the dove out of the ark;
11 And the dove came in to him in the evening; and, lo, in her mouth was an olive leaf pluckt off: so Noah knew that the waters were abated from off the earth.
12 And he stayed yet other seven days; and sent forth the dove; which returned not again unto him any more.

| Giving commentary to the first line of 8th Genesis, saint John Chrysostom tells us we should be quite careful with the word "remember". The fact that God "remebred" Noah doesn't mean He has forgotten him. God was merciful to the righteous man and helped him. What is more, remembering in the context of the Old Testament means fulfilling the promise.

| If chapter 7 was about how the waters rose until everything living died, in chapter 8 we see the end of the Flood. As Metropolitan Philaret notes, the image of the Flood, increasing and destroying, is contrasted with the description of the Flood ceasing, so that the first image reveals God’s justice, and the second one reveals God’s mercy. Once again, we see that the end of the Flood is described in much detail. We learn that the waters abated after 150 days and we learn the exact date when the ark stopped upon the mountain of Ararat. We find out when the tops of the mountains were first seen after the Flood and we see the gradual process of Noah testing whether it was safe to leave the ark. First, he sends forth a raven, and then a dove. Metropolitan Philaret writes that Noah switches a raven with a dove because the latter likes dry places, is faithful to its home and particularly friendly with people. Three times Noah sends forth the dove. On the first try, the dove finds nowhere to land, on the second it brings back to Noah an olive branch, which means that the waters are almost gone, and on the third it does not return, which means that the waters of the Flood were gone.

| I the context of these verses the phrase "God remembered Noah" looks very interesting to me. It may seem, that God forgot about Noah and his family, but of course He didn`t. I think, that these words refer more to the fact, that after the testing period had passed, the Lord came back from watching for Noah to active participation in his fate and the condition of the world.
