قرآن حکیم (شرح آیات منتخب)

هنگامی که آب طغیان کرد شما را برکشتی سوار کردیم

این آیه اشارةٌ کوتاهی به سرنوشت قوم نوح(ع) و مجازات دردناک آنها می‌کند. طغیان آب چنین بود که ابرهای تیره و تار» آسمان را پوشانید و چنان بارانی نازل شد که گویی سیلاب از آسمان فرو می‌ریزد. چشمه‌ها نیز از زمین جوشیدن گرفت و این هر دو آب دست به هم دادند و همه را فرو بردند و تنها گروهی نجات یافتند که به نوح ایمان آورده و همراه او سوار بر کشتی شده بودند. تعبیر «حَمَلناکُم» کنایه از اسلاف و نیاکان ما است؛ چرا که اگر آنها نجات نیافته بودندء ما امروز وجود نداشتیم.!
