Matthew Poole and continuators on Genesis 6:22

22. Thus did Noah, according to all that God commanded him, so did he .

Both for the matter and the manner of it, although the work of building the Ark was laborious▪ costly, tedious, dangerous, and seemingly foolish and ridiculous; especially when all things continued in the same posture and safety for so many scores of years together: Whereby Noah without doubt was all that while the Song of the drunkards and the sport of the wits of that age. So that it is not strange that this is mentioned as an heroick act of Faith in Noah, Heb. 11. 7. whereby he surmounted all these difficulties.
