God Repented?? Genesis 6:6-7 Quick Explanation

What does Scripture mean when it says that “the Lord was sorry that He had made man on the earth” and that He was grieved in His heart (Genesis 6:6–7)? Did God repent? Did He change His mind? In this Bible study, we carefully examine one of the most emotionally powerful and theologically challenging passages in the Old Testament.

We explore the meaning of the Hebrew language behind these verses, how the Bible describes God’s grief without denying His sovereignty or omniscience, and how to understand divine “repentance” in a way that is faithful to the whole counsel of Scripture. This study also looks at God’s holiness, His righteous judgment of sin, and His deep, personal sorrow over human rebellion.

Rather than presenting God as fickle or uncertain, Genesis 6 reveals a God who is personally involved, morally serious, and deeply grieved by sin, while still accomplishing His eternal purposes. This teaching will help you read difficult passages with greater clarity and confidence.

If you’ve ever struggled with verses that describe God in human terms, this study will encourage deeper trust in God’s character and a richer understanding of His heart.
