Bible Verses About Sheep: Offered in sacrifice from the earliest age

and Hevel too brought from the firstborn of his sheep, including their fat. Adonai accepted Hevel and his offering

Noach built an altar to Adonai. Then he took from every clean animal and every clean bird, and he offered burnt offerings on the altar.

He answered him, "Bring me a three-year-old cow, a three-year-old female goat, a three-year-old ram, a dove and a young pigeon."

He brought him all these, cut the animals in two and placed the pieces opposite each other; but he didn't cut the birds in half.
