They came on their own. He asked Hashem this question- how will I collect every specie of animal, and Hashem send I will send them to you. Noach did have to check the animals to ensure they were perfect, without blemish. And Hashem closed and locked the door for him.


Correct!

My son had the question, how did Noach know which animals didn't sin, and could be brought into the teivah?
The answer was, that the door of the teivah opened itself to let those animals in. Is the answer to same, the door closed itself?


Yes, the Passuk says that Hashem locked the door.

Thank you for reviving this thread! Another two letter name is eir (son of yehuda)


Haha ! I thought of it because of the Noach thread, and the question of whether it can be spelled with 3 letters.

Er is good.
We are still missing two. They are both in Noach. (In total, 5 out of the 9 two-letter names in the Torah are found in Parashas Noach.)

The two that were missing were:
Mash (one of the sons of Canaan iirc) and ches.

The fourth son of Noach was named Yoniko. (I never heard this before but apparently there are sources. )

I thought so too. Maybe the child was conceived after exiting from the Teiva, and before the incident with Cham.

Edited to add-on doing HW with a kid and yisro is referred to as Kohen Midyan, but that's in sefer shemos

In reference to the fourth son of Noach I found the following in Abarbenal 9:18.


אך אמנם מצאתי בספרים הקדומים אשר לאומות שכלם מעידים שהוליד נח עוד בן רביעי אחר המבול ושלכן נאמר כאן ויהיו בני נח
היוצאים מן התיבה לפי שהרביעי הוליד אחר צאתו ממנה וקראו יוניק"ו

However he says not to trust these sources as the torah only list 3 sons.

Originally when I read the question (last week?) about Noach’s fourth son, I googled it, and the only sources I found were Christian websites.

My husband showed me a Rashi that explicitly states that noach had no fourth son:

bereishis 9:25
Rashi Arur Canaan
