1 | Clean and unclean animals? | Gen 7:2 | Mommapbs | 144946 | ||
Since this is the first instance of the word "clean" in Scripture - how did Noah know which animals were "clean" and "not clean?" It seems impossible to me that Noah could go out and round up all the animal species of the earth, so does it stand to reason that God brought the animals to Noah? If He did, then does it also stand to reason that God brought 7 pairs of clean animals to the ark, thus distinguishing between those that were clean and those that were unclean? |

2 | Clean and unclean animals? | Gen 7:2 | lionheart | 144947 | ||
I cant back this up with scripture but I remember reading something about animals with split hooves.I believe this was how Noah was able to differentiate between clean and unclean animals. Hope this helps. In Christ, lionheart |

3 | Clean and unclean animals? | Gen 7:2 | Mommapbs | 144949 | ||
Yes, you are correct lionheart, but that description was given in the Law - many centuries later. I'm just wondering if this might have been the means of identifying them - of course we have the oral record from Adam to also take into account. And since Noah found favor in the eyes of the Lord, we might infer that he knew God and what He required - faith in following His command - recall how the Lord spoke to Cain and told him that he would be accepted if he did what was right - which goes right to the heart of things - his motives for obedience. Do you love Me comes to mind here . . . Blessings, mommapbs |

4 | Clean and unclean animals? | Gen 7:2 | mark d seyler | 144956 | ||
Hi mommapbs, Keeping the sabbath also predated the giving of the Law. It seems God told His people what He wanted of them 'somehow'. Love in Christ, Mark |
