Clean and unclean

What is the difference between clean, not clean, and unclean? How did Noah know?

Preface: This answer is based in the practice of discerning sensus plenior which follows rules to eliminate free-for-all allegory. How to interpret scripture using the rules of Sensus Plenior

The rabbis teach that Hebrew words get their meaning from the combined meaning of the letters within. Though they cannot teach how to do it, here is a proposed solution (needing validation) which appears to work Pneumnemonic Hebrew for Beginners

To avoid the discussion of the source of Genesis we accept the Wiseman hypothesis, allowing us to examine it as the word or God. Wiseman Hypothesis

Using Adam as a well-known example of the formation of Hebrew words, we will extend it to the sensus plenior extreme before using the method in our answer.

Adam אדם came from the ground, 'adamah' אדמה . The earth is a metaphor for the flesh. By this we discern that the flesh does not understand, and infer that it refers to the instinctive nature. By dropping the ה to form Adam, it indicates that Adam did understand. This is confirmed in scripture. The woman was deceived, the man wasn't.

Adam is made up of blood 'dam' דם and spirit א. The meaning of the aleph is confirmed in John's parsing of 'earth' ארץ into spirit א water ר and blood ץ.

The blood is formed by the commandment ד completed by the son ם .

Now to the question.

Adam named the animals according to their reputation. 'Shem' means 'name' and 'reputation'. He watched the animals and gave them names based on their behavior. For a list of animals in the dietary law and the meaning of their names using the method above see: Dietary law

Noah had the names of the animals available to him, and is is reasonable to presume that his father or grandfather had direct knowledge from Adam as to why they were named that way.

From the behavior and the names, Noah knew something about the metaphoric nature of language.

Clean ה(טהור)ה the secret ה()ה pure טהור

Pure ט-ה-ו-ר teaching ט those who don't understand ה to discern ו revelation ר

Not clean לא clean - teaching ל something different א than clean

unclean

טמ-א contracting טמ holiness א, closing טמ holiness א

ט-מא teaching ט the hundred (church) מא

ט(מ)א marriage which causes sin טא with the promise of the father מ at it's center [1]

ט-מ-א teaching ט of the promise of the father מ causes separation/reconciliation

Discerning sensus plenior is not 'translating' per se. Sensus plenior exists in metaphor which can be expressed in multiple ways. Where the expressions of a single metaphor appear to deviate in meaning it is important to go back to the fuller description of the metaphor.

With eating as a metaphor for learning, the dietary law becomes a list of people we should and shouldn't learn from. It is similar to the modern song Swinging on a Star

Clean and unclean were as obvious to Noah as Bing's song is to children.

Contradictions->SAB:1a Two contradictory creation accounts

SAB:1a Two contradictory creation accounts

Ge 1-2:3 vs Ge 2:4-3:24

Translation: The lazy scoffer fails to understand the language scripture was written in, and base their scoffing on English translations.

'Formed' ויצר can be interpreted in different tenses.

Which was made first; animals, as per Ge 1 or Adam as per Ge 2? The core issue is in this verse which appears to say that God created the animals to bring to Adam.

Ge 2:19 And out of the ground the LORD God formed ויצר every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought [them] unto Adam to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that [was] the name thereof.

The word 'formed' ויצר is obviously past tense in Isaiah 29:16

Isa 29:16 Surely your turning of things upside down shall be esteemed as the potter’s clay: for shall the work say of him that made it, He made me not? or shall the thing framed ויצר say of him that framed it, He had no understanding?

Though the word can be translated as different tenses, the scoffer chooses the translation to invent a contradiction. It actually says that God brought the animals, that he had made previously, to Adam.

Contradictions->SAB:1b Man and woman created simultaneously or not?

SAB:1b Man and woman created simultaneously or not?

Pile on the strawman: The scoffer builds a secondary claim for an apparent contradiction based on his first faulty claim.

This claim is based in the previous faulty claim of verse 2:19 dealt with here: SAB:1a Two contradictory creation accounts

At the same time:

Ge 1:25 And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind: and God saw that [it was] good.
Ge 1:26 ¶ And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
Ge 1:27 So God created man in his [own] image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

Man, then animals, then woman:

Ge 2:18 ¶ And the LORD God said, [It is] not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.
Ge 2:19 And out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought [them] unto Adam to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that [was] the name thereof.
Ge 2:20 And Adam gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the air, and to every beast of the field; but for Adam there was not found an help meet for him.
Ge 2:21 ¶ And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof;
Ge 2:22 And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man.
