- Why do animals now fear man (9:2)? Is it because we might eat them? Is not eating meat more Godly (before the flood) than eating meat (after the flood)? What about today (Rom.14:2)?
- Do our current laws align with 9:6? Why is lifeblood important to God? How does 9:6 establish government? What are your thoughts on capital punishment?
- What is the meaning of the rainbow in 9:15? How are you reassured that God remembers you through your traumatic times?
- Is the use of alcohol positive or negative in chap. 9? Has it been a positive or negative in your life?
