Genesis8:22

22. While the Earth remaineth , Seed-time, and Harvest, and Cold, and Heat, and Summer, and Winter, and Day and Night shall not cease.

In this estate: For though it seems probable that the substance of the Earth will abide for ever, after the dissolution of the World by fire, yet that will be in another manner, and for other purposes, and then there will be no need of Seed-time, or Harvest, &c.

Which distinction in a manner ceased in the Ark, the Heavens being covered and all its lights eclipsed by such thick and black Clouds as never were before no[illegible: 1+ letters] since.

Marginal references: Heb. as yet all the days of the Earth.
