Lesson 6, Part 1 the Table of Nations The Origin of Evil and The Spread of False Religion The Spread of False Religion – Lesson 6, Part 1 The Table of Nations – Part 1 Genesis 10:1-5 The Table of Nations – Part 1 In our study of The Spread of False Religion it is important to identify the lineages of the sons of Noah in order to identify where each group settled with their religious practices after leaving Babel. GEN 10:1 Now these are the generations of the sons of Noah, Shem, Ham, and Japheth: and unto them were sons born after the flood. 2 The sons of Japheth; Gomer, and Magog, and Madai, and Javan, and Tubal, and Meshech, and Tiras. 3 And the sons of Gomer; Ashkenaz, and Riphath, and Togarmah. 4 And the sons of Javan; Elishah, and Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim. 5 By these were the isles of the Gentiles divided in their lands; every one after his tongue, after their families, in their nations. GEN 10:6 And the sons of Ham; Cush, and Mizraim, and Phut, and Canaan. 7 And the sons of Cush; Seba, and Havilah, and Sabtah, and Raamah, and Sabtecha: and the sons of Raamah; Sheba, and Dedan. 8 And Cush begat Nimrod: he began to be a mighty one in the earth. 9 He was a mighty hunter before the LORD: wherefore it is said, Even as Nimrod the mighty hunter before the LORD. 10 And the beginning of his kingdom was Babel, and Erech, and Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar. 11 Out of that land went forth Asshur, and builded Nineveh, and the city Rehoboth, and Calah, 12 And Resen between Nineveh and Calah: the same is a great city. 13 And Mizraim begat Ludim, and Anamim, and Lehabim, and Naphtuhim, 14 And Pathrusim, and Casluhim, (out of whom came Philistim,) and Caphtorim. 15 And Canaan begat Sidon his firstborn, and Heth, 16 And the Jebusite, and the Amorite, and the Girgasite, 17 And the Hivite, and the Arkite, and the Sinite, 18 And the Arvadite, and the Zemarite, and the Hamathite: and afterward were the families of the Canaanites spread abroad. 19 And the border of the Canaanites was from Sidon, as thou comest to Gerar, unto Gaza; as thou goest, unto Sodom, and Gomorrah, and Admah, and Zeboim, even unto Lasha. 20 These are the sons of Ham, after their families, after their tongues, in their countries, and in their nations. 22 The children of Shem; Elam, and Asshur, and Arphaxad, and Lud, and Aram. 23 And the children of Aram; Uz, and Hul, and Gether, and Mash. 24 And Arphaxad begat Salah; and Salah begat Eber. 25 And unto Eber were born two sons: the name of one was Peleg; for in his days was the earth divided; and his brother's name was Joktan. 21 Unto Shem also, the father of all the children of Eber, the brother of Japheth the elder, even to him were children born. 26 And Joktan begat Almodad, and Sheleph, and Hazar-maveth, and Jerah, 27 And Hadoram, and Uzal, and Diklah, 28 And Obal, and Abimael, and Sheba, 29 And Ophir, and Havilah, and Jobab: all these were the sons of Joktan. 30 And their dwelling was from Mesha, as thou goest unto Sephar a mount of the east. 31 These are the sons of Shem, after their families, after their tongues, in their lands, after their nations. 32 These are the families of the sons of Noah, after their generations, in their nations: and by these were the nations divided in the earth after the flood. 1 The following map shows the various nations represented by the genealogy of Genesis chapter 10. This map represents the initial scattering after Babel. From this initial scattering, we will soon see that these people later migrated to the remote parts of the world. Notice the nations of Genesis 10 in the following. [131]1 The Nations of Genesis 10 [131] [131] The colors of the names on the following map represent the indicated descendent of one of Noah’s sons. 9 Genesis 10:1-32 - The Nations of Genesis 10 [131] 10 The Three Sons of Noah Genesis chapter 10 is known as the Table of Nations. The Table of Nations is important to the study of the rest of the history of the Jewish people in the Old Testament – you will see these families, and the nations they represent, mentioned again and again. The study of the nations these people represent is also important to understanding how the spread of false religions occurred. The people represented by the three sons of Noah participated in the New Testament events, and the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. Before we discuss the various nations descended from these three sons of Noah, let’s first look at the three sons and their responsibilities in the New Testament. The Synoptic Gospels Gospel of Targets Matthew Shem (Jews) Mark Ham (The Servant) Luke Japheth(TheGreek) 1 Bible Maps from Biblesoft, (from Nelson's Illustrated Bible Dictionary, Copyright (c)1986,Thomas Nelson Publishers). 2 The Seekers After Jesus The Seekers Were The Shepherds Shem The Magi Ham The Greek Japheth The Hearers in Acts The Preachers The Hearers Peter (Acts 2:14) Shem ("Men of Judea") Philip (Acts 8:26,27) Ham ("a man of Ethiopia") Peter (Acts 10:1, 22, 34-48) Japheth ("Cornelius, a centurian") Responsibility at the Crucifixion Responsibility Who Moral Shem (Jews) ("His blood be on us" MAT 27:25) Physical Burden Ham (Simon of Cyrene bore cross MAT 27:32) Executive Japheth (Roman) (Pilate. MAT 27:24) Next, we look at the three sons in their service to mankind. Note particularly the prophecy of Noah about Shem in Genesis 9:26. GEN 9:26 And he said, Blessed be the LORD God of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant. This was an indirect blessing on Shem. Shem's well being would be dependent on the spiritual health of the Semite people. They were directly bound to God. [50]2 Whenever Israel forgot God, they would be pillaged, and/or sent into captivity. [50]3 DEU 8:11 Beware that thou forget not the LORD thy God, in not keeping his commandments, and his judgments, and his statutes, which I command thee this day: The Three Sons Serving Mankind – In their service to mankind, let’s look at each of the three sons in the order given in Genesis 10:1, beginning with Shem, then Ham, and finally Japheth. [82; 27]4 THREE SONS SERVING MANKIND [27; 82]5 (Meeting three basic human needs) SEMITES – (Spiritual, Capacity to worship) Religion centered in monotheism. Jews – Moslems – Zoroastrians – Etc. HAMITES (Pioneers) - (Physical, Capacity to create) Settlement, Cultivation, Technology Egyptians - Phoenicians - Sumerians - Orientals - Africans & Etc. JAPHETHITES - (Intellectual, Capacity to reason) Stressed Science and Philosophy Greeks - Romans - Other European – Anglo American – Etc. We were meant to have all three (Spiritual, Physical, and Intellectual) in harmony. We were meant to develop all three. Notice that the intellectual is placed last. The natural order of these in our lives is the Spiritual, then the Physical, and lastly the intellectual. In raising our children we must remember the order, but not to forsake any. [27; 82]6 Man's Fundamental Responsibilities Man was given three fundamental responsibilities. [27]7 1. Fill the Earth with descendents. 2 [50] Noah W. Hutchings, GOD DIVIDED THE NATIONS, Oklahoma, City, OK: The Southwest Radio Church, 1981. 3 [50] Hutchings, GOD DIVIDED THE NATIONS. 4 [82] Henry M.

GEN 9:1 And God blessed Noah and his sons, and said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth. 2. Fill the Earth with the knowledge of the Lord. ISA 11:9 They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain: for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea. HAB 2:14 For the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea. 3. Teach men to call upon the name of the Lord. GEN 4:26 And to Seth, to him also there was born a son; and he called his name Enos: then began men to call upon the name of the LORD. Genealogy of the Sons GEN 10:1 Now these are the generations of the sons of Noah, Shem, Ham, and Japheth: and unto them were sons born after the flood. Shem may have been the compiler of this genealogy. He lived 502 years after the Flood, which would have encompassed the entire period of this genealogy. Further evidence that this was written by Shem is that Shem's genealogy is carried to the sixth generation, while Ham and Japheth's extend only to the third. Shem may have lost touch with Ham and Japheth after the Tower of Babel incident, so did not record additional generations for Ham and Japheth.

  • 1 Genesis 10-‐11 Study ID#12ID1337 Alright, Shall We Open Our Bibles
    Genesis 10-11 Study ID#12ID1337 Alright, shall we open our Bibles tonight to Genesis 10. If you're just joining us on Wednesday, you're only nine chapters behind. So you can catch up, all of those are online, they are in video, they are on audio. We are working on translating all of our studies online into Spanish. It'll take awhile, but it's being done. We are also transcribing every study so that you can have a written copy of all that's said. You won't have to worry about notes. It'll all be there, the Scriptures will be there. So that's also in the process. It'll take awhile, but that's the goal and the direction we're heading. So you can keep that in your prayers. Tonight we want to continue in our in-depth study of this book of beginnings, the book of Genesis, and we've seen a lot if you've been with us. We looked at the beginning of the earth, and the beginning of the universe, and the beginning of mankind, and the origin of marriage, and the beginning of the family, and the beginning of sacrifice and worship, and the beginning of the gospel message, way back there in Chapter 3, verse 15, when the LORD promised One who would come that would crush the head of the serpent, preached in advance. We've gone from creation to the fall, from the curse to its conseQuences. We watched Abel and then Cain in a very ungodly line that God doesn't track very far.

  • Genesis Chapter 10 Continued
    Genesis Chapter 10 Continued Genesis 10:13-14 "And Mizraim begat Ludim, and Anamim, and Lehabim, and Naphtuhim," "And Pathrusim, and Casluhim, (out of whom came Philistim,) and Caphtorim." Mizraim has seven sons, from who are derived eight nations. "And Mizraim begat Ludim": Mizraim was the second son of Ham. Ludim he is said to beget, the word being plural, is not the name of a man, but of his posterity; and the sense is, that Mizraim begat the father of the Ludim, whose name very probably was Lud, which name is preserved (in Isaiah 66:19). These Ludim are the same with the Lydians (Jeremiah 46:9), and whose country is called Lydia, (Ezekiel 30:5), but to be distinguished from Lydia in Asia Minor, and the Lydians there who sprung from Lud, a son of Shem (Genesis 10:22), for, as these sprung from Mizraim, the founder of Egypt, they must be somewhere thereabout. Bochart has proved, by various arguments, that they are the Ethiopians in Africa, now called Abyssines, whose country lies to the south of Egypt. A people formerly famous for archery, as Lud and the Lydians are said to be (Isaiah 66:19). And whoever reads the accounts Diodorus Siculus gives of the Egyptians and Ethiopians, will easily discern a likeness between them, and that the one sprung from the other; both deifying their kings. Showing a like carefulness about their funerals. Both using hieroglyphics; having the like order of priests, who used shaving; and circumcision was common to them both, as Herodotus observes. We must remember here, that these were the descendants of Ham.

  • The Meaning of the Word “Hebrew” in Genesis Rick Aschmann
    Bible chronology main page Last updated: 16-May-2020 at 14:54 (See History.) Español © Richard P. Aschmann The Meaning of the Word “Hebrew” in Genesis Rick Aschmann (Aschmann.net/BibleChronology/HebrewInGenesis.pdf) 1. In the Old Testament “Hebrew” never refers to the Hebrew language. .................................................................................... 1 2. By the time of the New Testament “Hebrew” did normally refer to the Hebrew or Aramaic languages................................... 2 3. In the Old Testament “Hebrew” is almost always used in interaction with foreigners. ............................................................ 2 4. In Genesis “Hebrew” is not limited to the Israelites, but refers to some larger group that includes them! ................................ 3 5. Could “Hebrew” be the same as Habiru? ............................................................................................................................... 4 1. In the Old Testament “Hebrew” never refers to the Hebrew language. Nowadays the word “Hebrew” refers to the language of the ancient Israelites, which was a variety of the ancient Canaanite language, and to its modern descendant which is the official language of the state of Israel. However, in the Old Testament, the word “Hebrew” never has this meaning. Prior to the book of 2 Kings the language is never named, and after that point it is usually called “the language of Judah”. What it was called before the division of the kingdom at the death of Solomon is unknown. It may have been called “the language of Israel”, though we have no evidence of this. However, it is called “the language of Canaan” once in the Old Testament, in Isaiah 19:18, and this may have been what it was called all along. יְהּוד ִ֔ית שְפ ַ֣ת נכְ ִ֔ען יְהּוד ִ֔ית Hebrew form Pronunciation /yəhūˈḏîṯ/ /śəˈp̄ aṯ kəˈnaʿan/ /yəhūˈḏîṯ/ Literal meaning (language) of Judah language of Canaan (language) of Judah References 2 Kings 18:26, 28, Isa.
