Of the kingdom of God, and the coming of the Son of Man. Just as it was in the days of Noah This phrase draws a direct parallel between the time of Noah and the future period referred to as the "days of the Son of Man." In Genesis 6:5-8, the days of Noah are characterized by widespread wickedness and corruption, with humanity's thoughts being continually evil. This context suggests a time of moral decay and spiritual apathy. Archaeological evidence supports the existence of ancient flood narratives, indicating a historical basis for the story of Noah. Theologically, Noah is seen as a type of Christ, a righteous man who provides a means of salvation through the ark, prefiguring Christ's role as the Savior. so also will it be in the days of the Son of Man: Persons / Places / Events 1. NoahA righteous man chosen by God to survive the flood due to his faithfulness and obedience. He built the ark as instructed by God, saving his family and pairs of every animal species. 2. The Days of Noah A period characterized by widespread wickedness and corruption on earth, leading to God's decision to cleanse the world through a flood. 3. The Son of Man A title Jesus frequently used for Himself, emphasizing His role in both His earthly ministry and His future return in glory. 4. The Flood A cataclysmic event sent by God to destroy all life on earth, except for Noah, his family, and the animals on the ark. 5. The Second Coming The future event when Jesus will return to earth, bringing judgment and establishing His kingdom. Teaching Points Awareness of the TimesJust as the people in Noah's time were unaware of the impending flood, many today are oblivious to the signs of the times. Believers are called to be vigilant and discerning. Righteous Living Noah's righteousness set him apart in a corrupt world. Christians are encouraged to live righteously, standing firm in their faith amidst societal decay. Preparedness for Christ's Return The suddenness of the flood serves as a warning for the unexpected nature of Christ's return. Believers should live in a state of readiness, spiritually prepared for His coming. Judgment and Mercy The flood was both an act of judgment and a demonstration of God's mercy towards Noah. Similarly, Christ's return will bring judgment but also the fulfillment of God's promises to His people. Faith in Action Noah's faith was demonstrated through his obedience in building the ark. Christians are called to put their faith into action, trusting God's promises and commands.(26) As it was in the days of Noe.--See Notes on Matthew 24:26-27. Here, also, the "days" of the Son of Man take the place of the parousia.Verses 26-28. - As it was in the days of Nee (Noah)... as it was in the days of Lot. The prominent sin of the antediluvian, he reminds them, was sensuality in its varied forms. The torch of religious feeling will have waned in that unknown and possibly distant future when Messiah shall reappear, and will be burning with a pale, faint light. The bulk of mankind will be given up to a sensuality which the higher culture then generally reached will have been utterly powerless to check or even to modify. Men, just as in the days when the ark was building and Noah was preaching, as in the days when the dark cloud was gathering over the doomed cities of the plain and Abraham was praying, will be entirely given up to their pursuits, their pleasures, and their sins. They will argue that the sun rose yesterday and on many yesterdays; of course it will rise to-morrow. Perfect security will have taken possession of the whole race, just as, on a smaller scale, was the case in the days of Noah and of Lot, when the floods came and the fire, and did their stern, pitiless work; so will that day of the second coming of Messiah, with its' bloody and fiery dawn, assuredly come on man when he is utterly unprepared.
