Israel’s Relationships With Nations in Genesis 10 This starts at Noah’s sons. Ham is the son who “uncovered his father’s nakedness” or had sex with him. Ham’s descendant Canaan is cursed because of it. Note that the text speaks in terms of descendants, not sons and fathers. We must think in the minds of the OR when we read this list. When they read it they recognized the names and associated them with all the different nations. Israel came through Shem, but it seems that most of Israel’s enemies came through Ham. In the mind of an Israelite, they would associate the descendants of Ham and the nations that they had become with their shameful past. Here are some of their noteworthy enemies that came through Ham: **Canaan Cush (southern Egypt) **Egypt Put (Western Egypt) *Nimrod (Babylonia & Assyria – far future enemies) Mizraim (along Nile of Egypt) Pathrusim (southern Egypt) **Caphtorim (Crete – later to migrate and become the Philistines) Sidon (of Palestine) **Heth (Hittites) **Jebusites (occupants of Jerusalem) **Amorites (Hill country of Palestine & Ammon of the transjordan) Girgashites (Sea of Galilee) **Hivites (Gibeonites) (Central Palestine – tricked Joshua into treaty – Josh 9:7; Shechem raped Dinah in Genesis 34:2) Arkites (Northern coastal Palestine) Sinites (City state along Mediterranean) Arvadite (Phoenician city) Zemarites (Northernmost Egyptian stronghold in Canaan) Hamathites (Inland Phoenician city) Shem: *Asshur (Assyria – far future enemy) **Aram (enemy to north of Israel) JEber (Origin of the Hebrews?? If so then in Ur of the Chaldeans) JDiklah (possibly a town south of modern day Mecca) Japheth: JMagog (possibly associated with the Scythians) *Madai (Kingdom of the Medes – problem in the far future) JAshkenaz (also possibly associated with the Scythians) bold Italics denotes direct known enemy No * or bold italics denotes implied or assumed enemy * = future enemy ** = imminent or present enemy J = point of interest Of the three brothers, Ham has 19 total enemies – 8 direct enemies - 7 of which are imminent or present enemies; Shem has 2 enemies-1 of which is imminent; Japheth has 1 far future indirect enemy The nations that God wanted Israel to destroy and take their land was the Canaanites, Philistines, Phoenicians, Geshurites, and the Maacahites. The surrounding nations whose land God did not give the Israelites was the Arameans (north), the Ammonites (east), Moabites (southeast), and Edomites (south). Moody Atlas of Bible Lands, Barry J.

Interpretation of the Book of Genesis
INTERPRETATION OF THE BOOK OF GENESIS BY FATHER TADROS Y. MALATY Translated by Dr. George Botros 2 3 4 AUTHOR’ S NOTE: The Word of God is the food granted by the Holy Spirit to the Church of Christ, to let her live continually renovated in spiritual youth; practicing no incapacity of old age or perishability. My good Lord gave me the grace, during the last few years, to study the Word of God, as experienced by the fathers of the early Church, as Spirit and Life. I began by going through meditations and interpretations of these fathers, in the hope that we also would live with the Spirit and thought of the early Church; enjoying, by the Holy Spirit, the Word of God active in us, until it raises us up to our heavenly Groom “The divine Word”, who is to come on the clouds, to grant us the fellowship of His glories, and to enter with us into the bosom of His Father, to be eternally with Him in His heavens. If I did not commit myself, in my interpretation, to the order of succession of the books as they come in the Holy Bible; My goal was not to author a comprehensive series of interpretations, but to enter with every soul into the secret place of the Word, and to enjoy Him as an eternal Groom, who fills the heart and mind and all the inner depths. Hegomen Tadros Y. Malaty 5 AN INTRODUCTORY STUDY: AN INTRODUCTION TO THE PENTATEUCH OR THE FIRST FIVE BOOKS OF MOSES 1- Unity of the five books.

Revisiting Genesis 5 and 11: a Closer Look at the Chronogenealogies
Andrews University Seminary Studies, Vol. 53, No. 2, 253-277. Copyright © 2015 Andrews University Seminary Studies. REVISITING GENESIS 5 AND 11: A CLOSER LOOK AT THE CHRONOGENEALOGIES BERNARD WHITE Busan, South Korea The genealogies of Gen 5 and 11 are unique in the Scripture record. Gerhard Hasel’s term chronogenealogy captures a major aspect of that uniqueness: they are genealogies with a major chronological component.1 By including ages at the birth of each named son, the number of years each individual lived after begetting that son, and the stated or implied total years of life for each individual, the two genealogies appear to provide a means by which to calculate the approximate number of years from Adam to Abraham.2 For 1Gerhard F. Hasel, “Genesis 5 and 11: Chronogenealogies in the Biblical History of Beginnings,” Origins 7.1 (1980): 23–37; “The Meaning of the Chronogenealogies of Genesis 5 and 11,” Origins 7.2 (1980): 53–70. Hasel’s term seems to have been adopted only by those inclined to accept a prima facie chronological intent of the two genealogies. See, for example, Jonathan Sarfati, “Biblical Chronogenealogies,” TJ 17.3 (2003): 14-18; Travis R. Freeman, “The Genesis 5 and 11 Fluidity Question,” TJ 19.2 (2005): 83–90. Chronological data is occasionally found in other genealogical material (Ex 6:16, 18, 20; 1 Chron 2:21); the significance of these ‘rarities’ will be explored at a later point in this paper. 2Bishop Ussher famously did just that—with injudicious precision!—in the mid-seventeenth century. But it is a pity that his name alone is so often cited in this respect, with the implication that using the chronological details of Gen 5 and 11 to estimate time since creation is to follow in his steps.

Hittites and Hethites: a Proposed Solution to an Etymological Conundrum
JETS 54.2 (June 2011) 239–50 HITTITES AND HETHITES: A PROPOSED SOLUTION TO AN ETYMOLOGICAL CONUNDRUM !"#$%& '. ())** The name “Hittite(s)” appears forty-eight times in contemporary English Bibles, 1 stemming from the Reformation Geneva Bible published in 1560. All English translations prior to the Geneva Bible had “Hethite(s)” rather than “Hittite(s),” based on the Latin Vulgate. The Roman Catholic Douay English translation of the OT is the only modern English version to retain “Hethite(s)” from the Vulgate. 2 Should it be “Hethite(s),” “Hittite(s),” or a combination of חִ תִּי the two? Both names are Anglicized transliterations of the gentilic terms f. pl.) in the Hebrew Bible, which) חתִּיּ ֹת m. pl.), and) חִ ִ תּים ,(.f. sg) חִ ִ תּית ,(.m. sg) we shall examine in detail in this article. 3 There was a time when historians sco+ed at the name “Hittite(s)” in the OT since it was not known outside the Bible. 4 Archaeological discoveries in Egypt, Mesopotamia, Turkey, and Syria from the early nineteenth century on, however, have revealed an Indo-European group scholars have dubbed “Hittites” (as opposed to “Hethites”), who established an empire in Anatolia that became a major power in the ancient Near East. But a serious problem remains. The biblical references to Hittites living in Canaan appear to be unhistorical since there is no evidence—linguistic, historical, or archaeologi- cal—for a Hittite presence in Canaan. Kempinsky attempted to establish an early twelfth-century migration of Hittites to Canaan, requiring Abraham to be placed in the thirteenth-twelfth century BC, 5 but this scenario ,nds little support in the archaeological record.

In Their Role As Geographers, the Old Testament Isra Elites Have Evoked
CALIFORNIA GEOGRAPHICAL SOCIETY Volume XXVII, 1987 THE GEOGRAPHICAL HORIZONS OF THE EARLY ISRAELITES: THE TABLE OF NATIONS REVISITED Gordon R. Lewthwaite In their role as geographers, the Old Testament Isra elites have evoked some rather different reactions. As Wright and Filson remarked, ''The Bible is unique among the world's scriptures; it is the only one for whose com prehension the study of historical geography is basic."l Indeed, Napoleon found the correlation of document and place so compelling that he had the appropriate scriptures read to him in situ throughout his Palestinian campaign.2 Yet, there are surprising lacunae: as Bal y and Tushing ham remarked, even the location of sacred Mount Sinai passed from Israel's memory.3 That fact, of course, reflects long severance from a region which was traversed but never settled; and at least until the Exile and far-flung Dispersion, most Israelite geography remained conspic uously close to home. A tally of identifiable Old Testa ment place names,4 however incomplete, indicates that fully 90 percent were located in the "Holy Land" itself (Figure 1). Yet, for all the allusions to natural phenomena, the regionally varying landscapes of even the homeland are seldom limned with geographical precision; and refer ences to distant lands are rarely coupled with an identi- ''Dr. Lewthwaite is Professor of Geography at California State University, N'Jrthridge. 39 40 THE CALIFORNIA GEOGRAPHER I I I ' I I I I I I I I I I L------- .......................... : ........... ...[� I I I MILES I '"" 500 -1 , 400 800 I I(IL0f\1llERS I I l Figure 1: Identifiable Places of the Old Testament fying phrase.

Lesson 7 the First Black King
Lesson 7 The First Black King OBJECTIVE To explain the importance of the black race living out God’s purpose with joy of knowing one’s identity. INTRODUCTION 1. Are you able to name the key people in your family’s history? 2. How far can you go back into your family history? How important do you think it is to know your identity? How important is it for young people to know their identity? HISTORICAL BACKGROUND 1. Noah’s Family had the responsibility after the flood repopulate the earth. Read Genesis 9:1 What specifically did God say to Noah? 1. _________________________________ 2. _________________________________ Noah had a unique assignment 2. Recall Noah’s spiritual background a. Read Genesis 5:29 What was Noah’s purpose in life? ___________________________________________ Lamech, Noah’s father, identified Noah’s purpose in life, which was to be a type of Messiah b. Read Genesis 6:9 & 7:1 How would describe Noah’s character? ____________________________________ Noah was a very obedient man APPLICATION: Based on Noah’s character, what should our character be towards God? _____________________________________________________________________________ The life a believer should live before God should be one of pure obedience and righteous intentions in one’s behavior, actions, thoughts, and deeds. TRACING BLACK IDENTITY 23 The question to be asked is what color was Noah and his sons? We begin by reflecting on the skin color of Adam, a reddish color. Prior to the flood, Adam’s descendants which includes Noah and his sons, must have had a reddish skin color as well. A. Noah’s Sons – Genesis 6:6-7:1-3 – They repopulated the earth after the flood.

What Are the Implications of Noah's Curse?
WHAT ARE THE IMPLICATIONS OF NOAH’S CURSE? Written by John Piper. The curse that Noah spoke over some of the descendants of his son Ham in Genesis 9:25 is irrelevant in deciding how the dark-skinned people are to be viewed and treated. Over the centuries, some people have tried to prove that the black race is destined by God to be subservient to other races because of Noah’s words over his son Ham, who was the father of the African peoples.1 Let’s look at the actual text of Scripture, and then I will give three reasons why it does not prescribe how the peoples of Africa are to be viewed and treated. Recall that Noah had three sons: Shem, Ham, and Japheth. The key text is Genesis 9:21–25 (nasb): And [Noah] drank of the wine and became drunk, and uncovered himself inside his tent. And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brothers outside. But Shem and Japheth took a garment and laid it upon both their shoulders and walked backward and covered the nakedness of their father; and their faces were turned away, so that they did not see their father’s nakedness. When Noah awoke from his wine, he knew what his youngest son had done to him. So he said, “Cursed be [or will be] Canaan; a servant of servants He shall be to his brothers.” Now notice three things. 1) Noah’s Curse Falls upon Ham’s Son Canaan First, Noah takes this occasion of the sin of his son Ham, and uses it to make a prediction about the posterity of Ham’s youngest son, Canaan.
