Second rate god you got there!
what trouble do you speak of?
If a god can create a universe, why does he need to mess aroung getting a guy to build a boat, run around catching animals and all that. Maybe he likes to do things the hard way, or perhaps he is just lazy or fictional.

It's just a plausible explanation supports by the original hebrew text. meaning if one were so inclined one could interpret the original text to include eggs/baby mammals. as the words originally used do not have a straight modern taxonomical word or phrase that it translates to.
If you look at the raw translation it simply says "Everything living made of flesh take two of, into the ark" this would obviously support the offspring of those animals.
There is no original hebrew. You're thinking of greek my dude, the original greek.

IDK. It would seem to me maybe the tree survived from before the flood because it takes a really long time from a olive tree to grow. seems to make more sense that the tree somehow survived and maybe began to sprout some leaves on a branch, that the bird saw and took. the Bible does not give specific detail out side of green leaves on an olive branch was used to indicate that the water had receded enough for life to start over.
Your math is like claiming there’s three days from Friday to Sunday.
Did you miss this R?
Answers in Genius says 370 days

You do understand what a proverb is, and isn't right?
What?
It’s not the infallible word of you god?
Proverbs are sayings and words of wisdom, like a penny saved is a penny earned. an apple a day keeps the doctor away. Which they are good words to live by they are no doctrine or law.

God inspired and approved, right?
Yahweh wouldn’t have anything in its book of rules it doesn’t approve, right?
Do not lean on your own understanding is a litter different than a penny a day…. And an apple a day…..
Come on man

He didn't. God gather the animals and sent them to Noah. Noah loaded them into the ark.

Again what in the story makes this a difficult thing for God?
