Bible Question: Did Noah kill and burn several animals on an altar for God? (Genesis 8:20)And if so, why did he need to do this?

Bible Answer: Yes Noah did kill and burn several animals on the altar before God.

Many theologians speculate that God taught the prinicpal of the blood sacrific to Adam and Eve when he killed animals to make their clothing. In any case we see God commanding this be done later when He gives Moses the instructions on tabernacle and worship of God.
