Bible Question: A Questions has been ask and I need a answer from yu Bible Folks...Was there 7 unclean animals that went in- to the the Ark and 7 Clean animals I am lost on this one...and if there were what was they???? Thanks..Mae68 |
Bible Answer: I studied Gen. Chapters 7,8,9 and underlined the area's pertaining to this point and found just a few. I would have to go according to what the scriptues say in Gen.7:2-3;8-9 and Gen.8:20 Breaking it down I found. Clean beast take by seven, male and female. Then it says, beasts that are not clean by two, male and female.(take it for what it say's). Then 7:8-9 again breaking it down, clean beasts and beasts that are not clean... they went in two and two.. male and female. Now look at Gen.8:20 And Noah building an altar unto the Lord and took of every clean beast... and offered burnt offerings on the alter. You see the seven clean beast and fowls where taken for an offering unto the Lord, the unclean ones where not. Don't take away from the scriptures or add to the scriptures. Hope this helps Carol |
