Why did Noah put only two of each animal on the ark and how did he keep them from mating?

Because God told him to put two of every 'unclean' beast but sevens of all the beasts considered 'clean'. Also the birds were represented in sevens. As for the mating we aren't told but there's no reason why they wouldn't have. Two Genesis 6:19 Of every living thing of all flesh, two of every sort shalt thou bring into the ark. Genesis 7:8, 9, 15 Of clean beast and of beasts that are not clean, and of fowl ... there went in two and two unto Noah into the ark, the male and the female, as God commanded Noah. This verse, God commanded Noah to take both clean and unclean animals in pairs. Seven Genesis 7:2 Of every clean beast thou shalt take thee by sevens, the male and his female. Note; Seven is an odd number and cannot be a pair. There will one odd animal left behind with no pair. More than likely these were used for sacrifice after the ark landed on dry ground, as at this point mankind had not been given permission to eat meat.


How many animals on Noahs arc?

Genesis Ch 7 (King James Version) either 7, 14 or 21And the LORD said unto Noah, Come thou and all thy house into the ark; for thee have I seen righteous before me in this generation. 2Of every clean beast thou shalt take to thee by sevens, the male and his female: and of beasts that are not clean by two, the male and his female.3Of fowls also of the air by sevens, the male and the female; to keep seed alive upon the face of all the earth.4For yet seven days, and I will cause it to rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights; and every living substance that I have made will I destroy from off the face of the earth.5And Noah did according unto all that the LORD commanded him.6And Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters was upon the earth.7And Noah went in, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons' wives with him, into the ark, because of the waters of the flood.8Of clean beasts, and of beasts that are not clean, and of fowls, and of every thing that creepeth upon the earth,9There went in two and two unto Noah into the ark, the male and the female, as God had commanded Noah.


If the purpose of putting pairs of animals in Noah's ark is to preserve the species then why did Noah offer them to God by burnt sacrifice when the water receded?

When Noah entered the ark he not only took the pairs for reproduction but also sevens (some debate exists whether this is seven animals or seven pairs) of the domesticated animals such as cattle. The idea here is that these tame animals would have been needed immediately after the flood for food. Also the suggestion is that this constitutes three breeding pairs and a seventh for sacrifice. Thus, the pairs of animals which were taken on the ark were a different and much larger group numerically than the domesticated group, even including the taking of sevens. The references for this are: Genesis 7:2-3 (2) "Of every clean beast thou shalt take to thee by sevens, the male and his female: and of beasts that are not clean by two, the male and his female. "(3) Of fowls also of the air by sevens, the male and the female; to keep seed alive upon the face of all the earth." Genesis 8:20 "And Noah built an altar unto the Lord; and took of every clean beast, and of every clean foul, and offered burnt offerings on the altar." These verses make it clear that there were animals for sacrifice apart from the 'unclean' or non-domesticated animals.god put sevens of things in the ark so i would imagine that the groups of sevens that noah took in to the ark he sacrificed some of them for god


How many females were on Noahs ark?

What did the meat-eating animals eat after Noah's Flood?

A:As the Bible says there were only two of each animal (or 7 - it does not matter a great deal), carnivorous animals could not have eaten other animals, otherwise they would all very quickly have become extinct. Even herbivores, animals that evolved to eat vegetation, would have had nothing to eat, since all the grasses and trees would have drowned in the Flood. We have to either look for a miracle that is not mentioned in the Bible, or accept that the biblical story of the Flood is only a myth.B:See Bible Gen7:2-3Ge7:2 Of every clean beast thou shalt take to thee by sevens, the male and his female: and of beasts that are not clean by two, the male and his female.Ge7:3 Of fowls also of the air by sevens, the male and the female; to keep seed alive upon the face of all the earth.Not all animals was two of each


What was noah's sin?

Noah was believed to have helped preserve the animal life of the Earth. God informed Noah that he was going to flood the Earth and asked Noah to help save the species of animals by gather 2 of every "unclean" animals and 7 of every "clean" animals. So Noah did and while doing so he built the Ark; a giant wooden boat capable of carrying tons and tons of weight. Later on, he and his family had waited in the Ark when the flood happened with the animals. Either during the flood or after the flood, Noah had sacrificed some of the animals. In the book "What the Bible didn't say" it states that it is most likely that Noah brought 7 pairs of clean animals instead of 7. But MY (Akkere's) hypothesis is that he sacrificed the seventh animal (which is why there was uneven) on the altar. So basically when the great flood had happened, Noah saved animal life.


Why did Noah take clean and unclean animals?

Noah took clean and unclean animals because God told him to, and Noah had strong faith in God(Genesis 6:9 + 7:2). Noah used the 'clean' animals for the purpose of sacrifice to God(Genesis 8:20) (Leviticus 1:10)(Leviticus 1:14)(Leviticus 17:11)


Into what did Noah march a pair of each of the world's animals?

That's what The Book said. noah only took two of each animal, unless it was a clean animal. clean animals were used for sacrifices and in worship so noah took more of those animals. I'm not positive but i think he took seven of each clean animal.
