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.
How big was Noah's Ark? Many children know the story of Noah's Ark. There are countless picture books of the animals going on the ark, two by two, and sometimes we may even see pictures of certain animals going toward the ark in sevens. Many children can tell you it rained and rained for forty days and forty nights. They know that Noah and his family were the only people saved after the floods came, and that God put a rainbow in the sky as a promise that He would never again destroy the earth by flood. But I think most people don't really know how big the ark was.
