noah's ark

psalm10730 · 07-04-2001, 10:56 PM

was there holes in the ark? from termites? did they take termites on the ark? if so, they would've had to eat wood, right? and the wood was everywhere in the ark. i dunno i was thinking
about that one time, you know? yall might think its a rediculous
idea but i thought it was something to ponder, kinda funny though if you think about it cause noah might've been asking his sons or God "hey, do we bring termites on here?" lol...

that is something to think about

hmm, that does kinda make u think. but the bible does say noah took 2 of every animal, so that would include termites, right? i'm sure there was plenty for them to eat without sinking the ship

i have a couple things. noah did not take two of every animal, it was two of every kind. this is very important to not overlook. in other words, he took one kind of dog, not every breed of dog.

i think i heard somewhere that noah didnt have to take insects and bugs on the ark for some reason that relates to y he didnt have to take fish on the ark. i really need to study this though.

finally, the animals wouldnt have eaten each other cause they were all herbavores (plant eaters) at that time. it wasnt until some time later that the animals began to eat meat (along with humans).

And did the Wood Peckers drill hole to get the termites? I saw a sign once that said:
"The Wood Peckers in the Ark are sometime more of a threat than the storm out side."

thats funny, 3e3c3e, but also true. borntoworship, thanks for the info, i often overlook that too....

I thought he brought 7 of each clean animal and 2 of each unclean. When he got off the boat he sacrificed some clean animals (which if he only carried 2, we wouldn't have our lamb chops now would we?).

thief · 08-04-2001, 09:38 AM

Is that how lamb chops were invinted??

Genesis 7

1 Then the LORD said to Noah, "Go into the ark, you and all your household, for I have seen that you are righteous before me in this generation. 2 Take with you seven pairs of all clean animals, the male and his mate; and a pair of the animals that are not clean, the male and his mate; 3 and seven pairs of the birds of the air also, male and female, to keep their kind alive upon the face of all the earth.
