Footnotes
Kēryx ('herald') is a formal public crier or proclaimer — Noah is not merely a righteous survivor but an active announcer of righteousness in his generation. Ogdoon ('as one of eight') foregrounds the remnant motif — eight souls preserved in a world under judgement, an image Kefa himself links to baptism in 1 Peter 3:20.
