Genesis 6:1 multiplication of mankind
And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. And it repenteth the LORD that He had made man on the earth, and it grieved Him at his heart. And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth, both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them, but Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD; and it repented the LORD that He had made man on the earth, and it grieved Him at his heart.
Definition:
Repented: Grieved because He had made man on the earth.
Question:
Why was God’s heart grieved?
GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.
Note: “Grieved” and “repenteth” mentioned twice. Wickedness of man of man was great on the earth. God called man and woman Adam, which means man (Genesis 5:2).
