John Trapp Complete Commentary

Genesis 8:17

Bring forth with thee every living thing that [is] with thee, of all flesh, [both] of fowl, and of cattle, and of every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth; that they may breed abundantly in the earth, and be fruitful, and multiply upon the earth.

Ver. 17. That they may breed abundantly.] R. Solomon thinks that not only reasonable, but unreasonable creatures also did forbear carnal copulation during the flood; See Trapp on " Gen 7:7 " which yet Mercer holds not probable.
