Genesis 7:8 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 7:8

Of clean beasts, and of beasts that are not clean
Seven couple of the one, and a couple of the other: and of fowls,
clean and unclean, also a like number: and of everything that creepeth upon the earth;
and upon that only, not in the water, for these had no need of the ark, they could live in the waters.
