π€In Genesis 6, God repented of creating man/mankind because man was increasingly commiting wickedness throughout the earth, even before God told Noah to build an ark and way before the Flood occured
πDid God sin or "repented of sin/turned from sin"? No. God simply repented by changing his mind from creating mankind to being grieved that he even made mankind.
πGenesis 6:3 KJB
[3] And the LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years.
πGenesis 6:5-8, 6:12 KJB
[5] And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.
[6] And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart.
[7] And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them.
[8] But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD.
...[12] And God looked upon the earth, and, behold, it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted his way upon the earth.
βGod repented many times in the Bible, proving and showing that the word "repent" does not mean "turn from sin" and does not mean "repent of sin" in Scripture.
