" For yet seven days, and I will cause it to rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights; and every living substance that I have made will I destroy from off the face of the earth."
"For yet seven days"
The narrative is set clearly on the basis of *the Law, which is the eternal word settled in the heaven. So in the creation account there were seven 'days' of creation, and and judgment now is to to be meted out upon the ungodly old world shall come in seven days.
The rains when they did come lasted for forty days and forty nights. The command number Four is a tag for the Son who came to the world as the word become flesh. A man's life the number 10 is deemed legally adequate. (Thus 4x10). The Spirit presents Jesus before being led to be tempted of the devil fasting for forty days. "Then Jesus was led by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil./After fasting forty days and forty nights, he was hungry."(Matt.4:1-2-NIV) Likewise the risen Christ was seen for forty days."The apostles whom he had chosen,/to whom also he shewed himself alive after his passion by many infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days(Ac.1:2-3).
In v.9 we are shown the creatures going in two and two unto Noah into the ark calls to mind the manner Jesus sent his disciples to preach the good news. ('and sent them two and two'- Luke 10:1)
* of the Law
vv. 2-3 the Law of the Lord:" Of every clean beast thou shalt take to thee by sevens, the male and his female: and of beasts that are not clean by two, the male and his female./ Of fowls also of the air by sevens, the male and the female; to keep seed alive upon the face of all the earth." These shall come into their own under the Law of Moses but he is giving us from the standpoint of the Son and it is Jesus Christ who is to manifest in the fullness of time, "For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth."(Ro.10:4;Ac.13:39)
