how many clean animals did God command Noah to take on the Ark?
350070
i think it was 7 pairs. God probably told them to do this because in case they ran out of food, they would have a clean choice of animals to possibly eat

yes, if you believe in the story of the great flood and that god created all the beasts in one day, you would have to say that every species alive today was on the ark, unless you believe in both the tale of noah and evolution (and would say that species evolved after the flood).

Actually, Moses didn't take anything on the ark. Noah did it.

You will find the answer to your question in the Bible book of Genesis, chapter 1.  Read verses 9-28.  But for the sake of others here who may not have a Bible, or don't wish to look these up, I will partially quote them here:\n\n11)  And God went on to say: “Let the earth cause grass to shoot forth, bearing seed, fruit trees yielding fruit according to their kinds...a third day.\n\n21) And God proceeded to CREATE the great sea monsters and EVERY LIVING SOUL THAT MOVES ABOUT, which the waters swarmed forth according to their kinds, and every winged flying creature according to its kind...a FIFTH day.\n\n26) And God went on to say: “Let us make MAN in our image...” 27) And God proceeded to create the man in his image,...MALE AND FEMALE, HE CREATED THEM...a SIXTH day. \n\n28)  Further, God blessed them and said to them: “Be fruitful and become many and fill the earth and subdue it...”\n\nSo, you see, every animal was created during the 5th symbolic day, including the dinosaurs, and Adam and Eve were created during the 6th. - - - But do read the whole passage from your own Bible, please.

He didn't. He fit two of every animal in an extremely huge ark. And back then two of every animal was a small amount because mutations didn't occur among the animals making the many subspecies we have today. We'd only have one type of ape, one type of duck, and so on.

To say that God didnt allow people to eat these things anciently because of no refridgeration or anything like that is absurd.  If you believe that then you would have to agree that God is not all knowing.  He must not have realized that one day in the future someone would invent a box to keep ice and meat in because if He did realize it then He surely He would have said "when the ice box in developed you may eat of these unclean animals".  \n\nThe problem here is translation the words "tahor" and "tamei" in hebrew do not translate well in to english so they chose the words "clean" and "unclean".  It is a spiritual teaching using physical things like a pig for instance.  But like any other commandment, if you strip the physical part of actually doing the commandment away, and only focus on the spiritual it will eventually loose its meaning thats why the physical is so important.  This would take me a while to explain but essentially the animals we are not to eat are scavengers, they devour other animals.  The animals that are edible chew cud.  Man was originally made to be vegetarian but when God allowed meat during the time of Noah, He chose animals that chewed cud.  If we were not going to be vegetarians then at least we would only eat animals that chewed cud so we were only one step away in the chain so to speak.  \n\nI dont want to ramble but this is a huge subject that needs to be taught.  There are so many other areas to cover like divided hooves and chewing cud being linked with rightly dividing the word and chewing on it until it becomes milk to feed "baby" believers in Yhwh.  There is really a lot there if you study it out.

2. You're wrong about the second scripture. God told Noah to take in two of every unclean animal, but to take in the clean animals by sevens. You were close, though. Thanks for shooting down a common myth. \n3. Yes. He had to tell the truth in the book of Job, when God asked Satan what he had been doing in the world. \n6. Yes. God will come down to establish a 100-mile high and 100-mile wide city on the earth. \n7. Abraham did have two sons. He had Isaac and Ishmael. The Jews that descended from Abraham, though, are also counted as his children.

Gen. 7:14\nFrom the foregoing, it becomes apparent that Noah could get all the necessary animals into the ark for preservation through the Flood. The Bible does not say that he had to preserve alive every variety of the animals. Rather, it states: “Of the flying creatures according to their kinds and of the domestic animals according to their kinds, of all moving animals of the ground according to their kinds, two of each will go in there to you to preserve them alive.” (Ge 6:20; 7:14, 15) Jehovah God knew it was necessary to save only representative members of the different “kinds,” since they would reproduce in variety after the Flood.\n\nFollowing the recession of the floodwaters, these comparatively few basic “kinds” emerged from the ark and spread out over the surface of the earth, eventually producing many variations of their “kinds.” Although many new varieties have come into existence since the Flood, the surviving “kinds” have remained fixed and unchanged.\n\nCould the Ark Have Held All the Animals?\n\nThe “kinds” of animals selected had reference to the clear-cut and unalterable boundaries or limits set by the Creator, within which boundaries creatures are capable of breeding “according to their kinds.” It has been estimated by some that the hundreds of thousands of species of animals today could be reduced to a comparatively few family “kinds”—the horse kind and the cow kind, to mention but two. The breeding boundaries according to “kind” established by Jehovah were not and could not be crossed. With this in mind some investigators have said that, had there been as few as 43 “kinds” of mammals, 74 “kinds” of birds, and 10 “kinds” of reptiles in the ark, they could have produced the variety of species known today. Others have been more liberal in estimating that 72 “kinds” of quadrupeds and less than 200 bird “kinds” were all that were required. That the great variety of animal life known today could have come from inbreeding within so few “kinds” following the Flood is proved by the endless variety of humankind—short, tall, fat, thin, with countless variations in the color of hair, eyes, and skin—all of whom sprang from the one family of Noah.\n\nThe ark had a carrying capacity equal to that of 10 freight trains of about 25 American boxcars each!\n\nAt Genesis 6:14, the Hebrew word qin·nim′ (“nests”) is translated “rooms” (KJ, RS), “cabins” (AT), and “compartments” (NW). Evidently these were relatively small compartments in the ark built by Noah and, similar to birds’ nests, served as a protection and shelter through a critical time when men and animals were otherwise helpless.

Well I think the most important part about the lives of animals in the bible is that they were created by God, and for man to rule over them, but after that it pretty much stays with people. And im not too worried about whats gonna happen to them, its the humans we should worry about, but interesting question though, I have no idea.

The Bible says that we have a moral obligation to God, and that includes caring for animals.\n\nProverbs 12:10\nA righteous man regardeth the life of his beast: but the tender mercies of the wicked are cruel.\n\nPsalm 8:3-8\n3 When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained; \n4 What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him? \n5 For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour. \n6 Thou madest him to have dominion over the works of thy hands; thou hast put all things under his feet: \n7 All sheep and oxen, yea, and the beasts of the field; \n8 The fowl of the air, and the fish of the sea, and whatsoever passeth through the paths of the seas.

Adam had the whole garden,..but sorry, an apple was not mentioned in Gen.  The people of Moses ate manna, angels food.  John ate locust and honey, the prodigals son ate the swines food and then also had his father prepare a feast for him.  At passover a lamb was sacrificed. They used alot of olive oil.   AND the seed of Abraham, we do now live in that land of milk and honey, this good ol USA.\nIf you want to know the food instructions that God left for us and what God considers clean and unclean, Lev. 11 tells all the foods that God gives us with thanksgiving to be RECEIVED.

Didn't he build the ark before the rains came?\n\nHere is a suggestion:\n\nOnce upon a time they say, they say\nNoah built a big ark\nFor family, friends, and animal pairs.\n\nAnd the rains came down day after day\nAnd he sailed away in the dark\nTil the day he saw land everywhere.
