AFAIK Flathub only has the v3.8 available as a download. I don't think the
GnuCash developers don't maintain the flathub versions.

The other alternative is to build GnuCash from the sources. On Linux Mint
this is fairly easy to do once you have the dependencies installed. The Wiki
page https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Building_On_Linux has fairly detailed
instructions and it is generally fairly simple once you have the depndencies
installed. gnucash-development-dependency-setup.sh
<http://gnucash.1415818.n4.nabble.com/file/t375329/gnucash-development-dependency-setup.sh>  
if run as a bash script in a terminal should download and install all the
dependencies. If you install from sources you will need to keep the
sourcefile directory and the build directory to uninstall from them when
necessary by running the "make unistall" command. Much cleaner than having
to delete directories. If you have any problems come back to the list and we
can usually help you through.
 
If you go to the bottom of the main GnuCash downloads page where you
downloaded the stable 3.8 version from there is a link View all GnuCash
downloads. Click on it and it will take you to the source forge download
page. Click on the link to gnucash(stable) on that page and you will end up
on a page with the folders for version numbers listed as links Click on
v3.7. You can download the source files for v3.7 from that directory
(gnucash-3.7.tar.bz2).
