Matthew Henry Commentary Genesis 6:22

"Thus did Noah; according to all that God commanded him, so did he." — Genesis 6:22 (ASV)

Noah's faith triumphed over all corrupt reasonings. To rear so large a building, of a kind he had never seen, and to provide food for the living creatures, would require from him a great deal of care, labour, and expense. His neighbours would laugh at him. But Noah, by faith, overcame all such objections; his obedience was ready and resolute.

Having begun to build, he did not stop until he had finished: so did he, and so must we do.

He feared the deluge, and therefore prepared the ark. And in the warning given to Noah, there is a more solemn warning given to us, to flee from the wrath to come, which will sweep the world of unbelievers into the pit of destruction.

Christ, the true Noah, which same shall comfort us, has by His sufferings already prepared the ark, and kindly invites us by faith to enter in. While the day of His patience continues, let us hear and obey His voice.
