Genesis 9:1

and said unto them

The Noahic Covenant. The elements are:

(1) The relation of man to the earth under the Adamic Covenant is confirmed

( See Scofield) - (Genesis 8:21)

(2) The order of nature is confirmed (Genesis 8:22)

(3) Human government is established (Genesis 9:1)

(4) Earth is secured against another universal judgment by water (Genesis 8:21); (Genesis 9:11).

(5) A prophetic declaration is made that from Ham will descend an inferior and servile posterity (Genesis 9:24); (Genesis 9:25).

(6) A prophetic declaration is made that Shem will have a peculiar relation to Jehovah (Genesis 9:26); (Genesis 9:27). All divine revelation is through Semitic men, and Christ, after the flesh, descends from Shem.

(7) A prophetic declaration is made that from Japheth will descend the "enlarged" races (Genesis 9:27). Government, science, and art, speaking broadly, are and have been Japhetic, so that history is the indisputable record of the exact fulfilment of these declarations.
