The Interim Climax with Noah

In the reflection on Genesis 3.15, Noah emerges as a significant figure representing hope for reversing the curse. Despite the lineage of death in prior generations, Noah's father gives him a name signifying relief and the potential to bring rest. The flood serves as a means of overwhelming God's enemies and marks a turning point in the conflict, with Noah and his family establishing a new covenant and experiencing rest. While Noah's role is crucial, it is seen as a temporary fulfillment within the broader narrative of the promised seed.
