Ramban on Genesis 9:3/רמב"ן על בראשית ט׳:ג׳
אכָּל רֶמֶשׂ אֲשֶׁר הוּא חַי יִרְמֹז לַבְּהֵמָה וְלַחַיָּה וְלָעוֹף וְגַם לִדְגֵי הַיָּם, כִּי כֻּלָּם נִקְרָאִים רֶמֶשׂ, כְּדִכְתִיב (בראשית א':כ"א) "כָל נֶפֶשׁ הַחַיָּה הָרֹמֶשֶׂת אֲשֶׁר שָׁרְצוּ הַמַּיִם":
1EVERY ‘REMES’ (MOVING THING) THAT LIVETH. This refers to cattle, beasts and fowl — and also the fish in the sea — since all of them are called “moving things,” just as it is written: Every living creature ‘haromeseth’ (that creepeth) wherewith the waters swarmed.183
