According to Sanhedrin 108b, Noah was engaged both day and night in feeding and caring for the animals, and did not sleep for the entire year aboard the Ark. The animals were the best of their kind and behaved with utmost goodness.

Did Noah coax the animals into coming into the Ark?

We never read in Scripture where Noah is coaxing the animals into coming into the ark or he’s standing at the entryway of the ark and herding them all in. God tells Noah that “of every living thing of all flesh, you shall bring two of every sort into the ark to keep them alive with you. They shall be male and female.

Why did God use the Ark to save Noah’s Family?

God used the ark to save Noah, his family, and the animals. This gives us a picture of God’s love for us through Jesus, who will save us from God’s judgment if we believe in Him. “God loved the world so much that he gave his one and only Son. Anyone who believes in him will not die but will have eternal life” (John 3:16).

How many sheep on Noah’s Ark?

Though there are many large animals in the world, there are many, many more small animals. The average animal size, including dinosaurs, is about the size of a sheep. At a very conservative estimate, the ark could have carried at least four times more sheep than cows. That means the ark had room for 30,000 sheep.

What was the size of Noah’s Ark?

God told Noah, “Here is how I want you to build it. The ark has to be 450 feet long. It has to be 75 feet wide and 45 feet high” (Genesis 6:13). That’s longer than a football field! The ark would be a very stable boat, like a barge, able to float and wait out the flood that God would send on the world.
