One thought:
According to The Bible, there were eight (1 Peter 3:20)(Genesis 7:13)
Another thought:
That is, as far as the mythology goes according to the interpreted and re-interpreted texts throughout the past, I believe just under 2,000 years (since Genesis was written a fair bit after many other books of the Bible, including, I do believe, the "Gospel" of the New Testament). But yes, the claim is that 8 people boarded the Ark, according to the scriptures, at least, what we have copies of, which I must note, are not guaranteed to be the same as the original manuscripts which are "lost" in the past.
Noah took two of each kind of animal on the ark.
Noah took his wife, three sons and their three wives.
None. It was Noah who had the ark.
Noah took his three sons (Shem, Ham, and Japheth) on the ark. See Genesis 7:13.
No animals died on Noah's Ark.
In Noah's Ark Noah saves many animals from being killed by a flood. In Schindler's Ark Schindler saves many Jews from being killed in the Holocaust
They must have taken food with them in the ark.
FOUR men were on Noah's ark; Noah and his three sons and their wives(Genesis 7:13)
7 adults were in the ark with Noah, so eight people were saved altogether (Genesis 7:6+7)(Genesis 6:10)
Eight people. Genesis 6:10 stated Noah had three sons: Shem, Ham and Japheth. Then in Genesis 7:1, 7: "The Lord then said to Noah, "Go into the ark, you and your whole family, ....." , "And Noah and his sons and his wife and his sons' wives entered the ark..."
According to the Bible, there were eight people on the ark during the flood: Noah, his wife, his three sons, and their wives.
Not a single animal drowned in the Ark.
