Genesis 9:5 - Forerunner Commentary

Genesis 9:5

3 ^aEvery moving thing that lives shall be food for you. I have given you ^ball things, even as the ^cgreen herbs.

4 ^aBut you shall not eat flesh with its life, that is, its blood.

5 Surely for your lifeblood I will demand a reckoning; ^afrom the hand of every beast I will require it, and ^bfrom the hand of man. From the hand of every ^cman’s brother I will require the life of man.

6 “Whoever ^asheds man’s blood,
By man his blood shall be shed;
^bFor in the image of God
He made man.

7 And as for you, ^abe fruitful and multiply;
Bring forth abundantly in the earth
And multiply in it.”
