Genesis 9:20

And Noah began to be an husbandman This expression is an extremely awkward rendering of the strange Hebrew, which is literally "And Noah began man of the soil and planted," &c. Better, "And Noah the husbandman began and planted a vineyard," i.e. was the first to do so.

"The husbandman," lit. "man of the soil," LXX ἄνθρωπος γεωργὸς γῆς. This description of Noah introduces him in a new capacity. The present section seems to be taken from a distinct tradition concerning the primaeval time, in which Noah appears as the founder of agriculture and of vine cultivation.
