The flood story in Genesis is confusing to read. The clean animals go into the ark by twos (6:19-20, 7:8-9) and by sevens (7:2). The flood lasts for forty days (7:17) and for 150 days (7:24, 8:3). Noah sends out a raven (8:7) and a dove (8:8). Why doesn't Genesis get its story straight? Because there were two separate accounts that were (somewhat clumsily) interwoven. |
