    Caffenated llama of flourescent doom

    And so it was that Moses wrangled all of the oppressive Egyptians, put them all into the parliament building, and awaited the coming of Guy Fawkes to finalize the liberation if the Jewish slaves.
    In the meantime, Noah took two of each animal and placed them in his ark of infinite space. He then floated to the fourth dimension and used his magical powers to flood the world there and start a new generation. Then came the creation of centaurs...

    None. He just took two tablets of stone. The one who took animals on his Ark was Noah:


    1) "The Ark of the Covenant (ארון הברית in Hebrew: aron hab'rit) is described in the Bible as a sacred container, wherein rested the Tablets of stone containing the Ten Commandments as well as other sacred Israelite pieces. According to the Biblical account, the Ark was built at the command of God, in accord with Moses' prophetic vision on Mount Sinai (Exodus 25:9-10). God communicated with Moses "from between the two cherubim" on the Ark's cover (Exodus 25:22). The Ark and its sanctuary were "the beauty of Israel" (Lamentations 2:1). Rashi and some Midrashim suggest that there were two arks - a temporary one made by Moses, and a later one made by Bezalel (Hertz 1936)

    The Biblical account relates that during the trip of the Israelites, the Ark was carried by the priests ~2,000 cubits (Numbers 35:5; Joshua 4:5) in advance of the people and their army or host (Num. 4:5-6; 10:33-36; Psalms 68:1; 132:8). When the Ark was borne by priests into the bed of the Jordan, the river was separated, opening a pathway for the whole of the host to pass over (Josh. 3:15-16; 4:7-18). The Ark was borne in a seven day procession around the wall of Jericho by three priests sounding seven trumpets of rams' horns, the city taken with a shout (Josh. 6:4-20). When carried, the Ark was always wrapped in a veil, in tachash skins (the identity of this animal is uncertain), and a blue cloth, and was carefully concealed, even from the eyes of the Levites who carried it."

    2) "Noah's Ark was, according to Abrahamic religions, a large vessel built at God's command to save Noah, his family, and a core stock of the world's animals from the Great Flood. The story is told in chapters 6-9 of the book of Genesis, with later variations in the Qur'an and a number of other sources."

    Moses wasn't into animals or boating. He was more the mountaineering type.

    Posted in context if you do not care to read it in context you only need to read verses 2-3

    Genesis 7 (NIV)
    1 The LORD then said to Noah, "Go into the ark, you and your whole family, because I have found you righteous in this generation. 2 Take with you seven of every kind of clean animal, a male and its mate, and two of every kind of unclean animal, a male and its mate, 3 and also seven of every kind of bird, male and female, to keep their various kinds alive throughout the earth. 4 Seven days from now I will send rain on the earth for forty days and forty nights, and I will wipe from the face of the earth every living creature I have made."

    5 And Noah did all that the LORD commanded him.

    Genesis 7:2,3 God said to Noah,
    Bring in the animals, too-a pair of each, except those kinds I have chosen for eating and for sacrifice:take seven pairs(male and female), of each of them,and seven pairs of every kind of bird. Thus there will be every kind of life reproducing again after the flood has ended.
    7:16 Two by two they came, male and female, just as God had commanded. Then the LORD GOD "closed the door and shut them in".

    To begin with, Noah's flood was not worldwide, it only covered the area concerning where Noah's race lived. The fallen angels had left their first estate, heaven, and came to earth, bringing heavenly knowledge with them. They then cohabited with the daughter's of Adam (his lineage). Their were children produced called Geber, or giants, they were hybrids. This was Satan's plan to destroy the seed line through which the Messiah would come, to thouroughly pollute the seed line of Adam's descendants. God found Noah to be a just, righteous man and perfect in his generation, not a perfect man. but perfect as to pedigree. Neither he nor his sons had corrupted their bloodline by taking offspring of the fallen angels to wife. The fallen angels not only corrupted the bloodline of Adam, they brought much evil and wickedness with them, when God looked down He didn't like what He saw. This was the reason for the flood of that area, to destroy the mixture of human and heavenly flesh, plus all the evil and wickedness being done. There was a world wide flood, million of years earlier, God created the earth in the beginning, and it became void and empty when he ended the first earth age with a worldwide flood, because of Satan's attempted overthrow. There were millions of years between verse 1 and 2 of Genesis. You can read of the three world ages in II Peter 3:1-9, where Peter describes the three world ages, the world wide flood destroyed the first earth age, then God begins to rejuvenate the earth in Genesis beginning in the second part of verse 2. Jeremiah was given a vision, and he's looking back into the far distant past, looking at the destruction the worldwide flood caused in 4:23-28, ending the first earth age.
    The only animals within the Ark then would have been the animals living within the area where Noah resided, not all the animals from over the entire earth, as has been falsely taught. Noah was instructed to take two of every living species of flesh in that area into the ark. Then he was instructed to take seven clean animals and seven clean fowls, "seven" means "spiritual perfection", these animals were to be used in sacrifice. So two of every living thing of flesh, clean and unclean, for survival of the species, plus seven clean animals and seven clean fowl for sacrifice.
