Structure and formatting
Some translations prefer to set apart extended quotations, prayers or songs. The ULB and many other English translations indent the lines of 8:22, which is the poetic part of the quotation.
Special concepts in this chapter

The waters receded after this great flood. Because there was so much water, and it came from God, it is described in a unique way.
