Bible Note: Hank, What were the unclean animals in Genesis 7:2 "You shall take with you every clean animal by sevens, the male and female. And take two of the animals that are NOT CLEAN, the male and female. Noah was not a Jew. So how could Jewish laws, or Mosaic laws apply to Noah? Ya, you can eat whatever you wan't. But when did God call UNCLEAN MEAT clean. Entire chapters, such as Leviticus 11 and Deuteronomy 14, have laid down detailed listings of the clean and unclean categories of animals. And since the original diet prescribed by God included no meat whatsoever ( Genesis 1:29), we can be absolutely certain that no forbidden, "unclean" meat was included in the diets of those who lived before the flood and followed God's law. The flood experience also demolishes a popular argument used by those who insist on eating both clean and unclean animals. They claim that the law of unclean foods only applied to the Jewish people. This cannot be correct, since there were no Jews in Noah's day when the restriction was laid, by God Himself, upon all the human race. Furthermore, the Bible declares that the forbidden-meat law will still be in effect at the second coming of Jesus. (Isaiah 66:15-17.)Isa 66:15 For, behold, Jehovah will come with fire, and with His chariots like a tempest, to refresh His anger with fury, and His rebuke with flames of fire. Isa 66:16 For by fire and by His sword Jehovah will execute judgment with all flesh; and the slain of Jehovah will be many. Isa 66:17 Those who sanctify themselves, and purify themselves to go into the gardens, behind one tree in the middle, eating SWINE'S FLESH, and the HATEFUL THING, and the MOUSE, will be cut off together, says Jehovah. |
