NOAH "PERFECT".
(GENESIS 6:9).

Appendix 26 To The Companion Bible.

  The Hebrew word tamim means without blemish, and is the technical word for bodily and physical perfection, and not moral. Hence it is used of animals of sacrificial purity. It is rendered without blemish in Exodus 12:5; 29:1. Leviticus 1:3, 10; 3:1, 6; 4:3, 23, 28, 32; 5:15, 18; 6:6; 9:2, 3; 14:10; 22:19; 23:12, 18. Numbers 6:14; 28:19, 31; 29:2, 8, 13, 20, 23, 29, 32, 36. Ezekiel 43:22, 23, 25; 45:18, 23; 46:4, 6, 13.
  Without spot. Numbers 19:2; 28:3, 9, 11; 29:17, 26.
  Undefiled. Psalm 119:
1.
  This shows that Genesis 6:
9 does not speak of Noah's moral perfection, but tells us that he and his family alone had preserved their pedigree and kept it pure, in spite of the prevailing corruption brought about by the fallen angels. See Appendix 23 and Appendix 25.
