There is no such thing as the Curse of Ham!!!

niki,

the book of genesis is so deep. I love how the best commentary for the new testament is the old testament. Now this is just my interpretation but by using Romans 9 and Galatians 4, the allegory of Isaac and Ishmael as well as Jacob and Esau showing that Isaac and Jacob represent Christians while Ishmael and Esau represent the jews.

By using the allegories from the new testament, you could say the curse that Noah put on Canaan/Ham could represent Jesus cursing the jewish nation with the fig tree.

However, the nations of Canaan were super wicked and God commanded the children of Israel to wipe them out in Deuteronomy 7 and other places.

Hi Niki.

The curse was on Canaan and perhaps the tribe to come. Hams son.

Apart from God the whole sinful world is cursed. There's no grey area.

God bless.

Here is the Genealogy. As you follow down to Canaan, then Nimrod;

They descended from Hams' lineage.

Nimrod was married to a witch. etc etc
