Topical Lexicon

Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root נוּחַ (nuach), meaning "to rest" or "to settle down."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G3575 (Νῶε, Noe): This is the Greek equivalent of the Hebrew name Noach, used in the New Testament to refer to the same biblical figure, Noah. It appears in passages such as Matthew 24:37-38, Luke 17:26-27, Hebrews 11:7, and 1 Peter 3:20, where Noah is referenced in discussions of faith, judgment, and salvation.

Usage: Noach is a proper noun used as a personal name in the Hebrew Bible. It primarily refers to the biblical figure Noah, who is a central character in the Genesis flood narrative.

Context: • Noah in the Bible: Noah is a pivotal figure in the Book of Genesis, chapters 5 through 9. He is described as a righteous man, "blameless among the people of his time," and he "walked with God" (Genesis 6:9, BSB). Noah is chosen by God to survive the great flood that would cleanse the earth of its widespread corruption and violence. God instructs Noah to build an ark to save himself, his family, and pairs of every living creature. Noah's obedience and faithfulness are highlighted throughout the narrative.
• The Flood Narrative: The account of Noah and the flood is a story of divine judgment and mercy. God decides to destroy the earth with a flood due to humanity's wickedness but spares Noah and his family because of Noah's righteousness. After the floodwaters recede, God establishes a covenant with Noah, promising never to destroy the earth with a flood again and setting the rainbow as a sign of this covenant (Genesis 9:11-17, BSB).
• Noah's Legacy: Noah is considered a patriarch and is listed in the genealogies leading to Abraham. He is also mentioned in the New Testament as an exemplar of faith (Hebrews 11:7, BSB) and as a preacher of righteousness (2 Peter 2:5, BSB). Noah's story serves as a reminder of God's justice, mercy, and the importance of faith and obedience.
