Chapter 7 starts with The Jesus telling The One his plan to destroy the earth. Noah, being no fool, is eager to gather up another 5 of each of the clean animals. So as to not piss off his psychopathic deity.
Genesis 7:6-10:
6 And Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters was upon the earth.
Aside: That’s about 50 in modern human years.
7 And Noah went in, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons' wives with him, into the ark, because of the waters of the flood.
8 Of clean beasts, and of beasts that are not clean, and of fowls, and of every thing that creepeth upon the earth,
9 There went in two and two unto Noah into the ark, the male and the female, as God had commanded Noah.
10 And it came to pass after seven days, that the waters of the flood were upon the earth.
