My Bible just says 7 of each... What version are you using?

Isaiah 32:17 And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance for ever.

I didn't think so, either.

Jesus' brothers were not among the 12.

And Jacob is the Hebrew form of James

or

James is the Latin/Greek form of Jacob.

In a Greek New Testament, the epistle of James is "Iakobou (Jacob)"

I've never seen a version that didn't specify 7 of each clean, the male and its mate, and 2 of each unclean, the male and its mate. Some versions have a footnote to clarify that it means pairs. The two versions I'm using at my desk right now are NIV and NKJV.

My NIV specifies "a male and its mate" - that was my error for not stating it in the answer.

If we all sang the same note in the choir, there'd never be any harmony.

Funny, isn't it, how we accept Grace for ourselves and demand justice for others?

I just had a buzz through several versions and the decision is split between both translations. Some have "by sevens" in a footnote and some have "or seven pairs" as a footnote.

The Young literal translation, which John317 likes, has it seven pairs.

We can keep this discussion going if you wish, but here is a reminder of the question which is currently on the table:

Who was famous for making a detailed organization of temple personnel?

I think it was Peter who guessed David, and he was correct!

The reference for that was 1 Chronicles 23-24.

Who supplied the materials to build the tabernacle?

Exactly! Thanks, carolaa! The people gave freewill offerings to supply the materials.

At LEAST a dark cloud! 2 Chronicles 7:1 says that fire came down from heaven and consumed the sacrifices and God's glory filled the place.

On to the next:
