I don't know, Tim. I would think the "sevens" were pretty much sacrificial animals--probably the sheep, goats, maybe oxen--and that's it.
Thanks, CM, you could be right. I just think about that 50,000 acre ranch I managed in Africa and say to myself "How would I have done it"? We have lists of clean eating animals that weren't sacrificial from the Scriptures, like the venison served at the King's table, Isaac's request for venison, the quail in the wilderness etc... and I ask myself how would I have started a herd or flock of those animals, and I would do it just like that, with a male antelope and 6 females.

Regards
Tim
