Genesis 8 in the New Testament

Says “And walk in love, just as Christ loved us and gave Himself up for us as a fragrant sacrificial offering to God” (Eph 5:2, BSB). “For we are to God the sweet aroma of Christ among those who are being saved and those who are perishing” (2 Cor 2:15, BSB). “So if you who are evil know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good things to those who ask Him!” (Matt 7:11, BSB). Those texts state the New Testament’s own use of the offering aroma, and of people called evil who still give good gifts. Phil 4:18 is already treated in the xref from that verse to 8:21. James 5:7 speaks of the farmer waiting for the rains; it shares no seasonal term with Swete 8:22. The New Testament use of Noah and the flood as history is in the Genesis 7 note and is pointed to, not taken up again (Matt 24:37–39; Luke 17:26–27; Heb 11:7; 1 Pet 3:20; 2 Pet 2:5). See the Greek note on form, and the three xrefs below.

Implies Those Genesis 7 texts read Noah as a real person who entered the ark and was preserved; this chapter is the going down of the same waters.

Uncertain Form agreement is not a claim about sources. Ephesians 5:2 is the New Testament’s own usage; no further typological system is built from it. No application is drawn.
