The LORD told Noah and his family to go into the ark. They were to take seven of every kind of clean animal and a pair of every kind of unclean animal. T he LORD then said to Noah, Go into the ark, you and your whole family, because I have found you righteous in this generation.
There is no contradiction here. Genesis 6:19 indicates that Noah was to take âtwo of every sort into the ark.â Then, four verses later, God supplemented this original instruction, informing Noah in a more detailed manner to take more of the clean animals.According to the King James Version, clean animals were taken into the ark âby sevensâ (Genesis 7:2). The American Standard Version says that the clean animals were taken âseven and seven.â] Newer translations are worded more clearly, but there is general disagreement among them.
