Matthew Poole and continuators on Genesis 1:24

24. ¶ And God said, Let the Earth bring forth the living Creature after his kind, Cattle , and creeping thing , and the Beast of the Earth after his kind: And it was so.

i. e. Those living Creatures hereafter mentioned, whose original is from the Earth and whose Habitation▪ is in it.

i. e. Those tame Beasts, which are most familiar with and useful to men for Food, Clothing, or other service.

To wit, of the Earth▪ of a differing kind from those creeping things of the Water, v. 20.

i. e. The wild Beast, as the Hebrew word commonly signifies▪ and as appears further because they are distinguished from the tame Beasts here called Cattle.
