Genesis Chapter 10 Discussion Page 9

Lisa you may have this anwer by now, but I am just reading the comments. In Gen. 6 or 7

18 But with thee will I establish my covenant; and thou shalt come into the ark, thou, and thy sons, and thy wife, and thy sons' wives with thee.

Later God instruct them to go and multiply.

What are the women names that gave birth to all the sons?

I see sons listed but no daughters. If the earth of totally destroyed, there had to be women to reproduce. I don't understand.

It says that is how "the nations divided in the earth after the flood." It doesn't say they have to stay that way... It also doesn't say anything about Ham's generation being cursed. I agree with Lori and J.R.

just question

where is exactly the location of mesha and sephar and what is the name of these two today?

i need that for my study

regards

this is food for thought, you learned so much about the generation of noah,s and it is really interesting when you read and read the words of god

In this passage, it said his days on earth were divided? What do they mean? Divided how and between what or where?

Does anyone know where I can find more of the story of Nimrod, Semiramis in the bible? I remember reading somewhere that one of Noah's sons chopped off Nimrod's head for marrying his mother. Very interesting subject especially since a lot of countries paganisms' are rooted in this very first pagan religion of Babylon.

Divided but not to separate or to curse them-please see Youtube southwest ministries coast to coast. The fall of Lucifer and its implications by Dr. David Ingraham, God divided the 70 nations according to the 70 grandchildren of Noah-purposefully dividing them racially, geographically, etc. When there is only one nation, much, if not everything, can be taken away, restricted, denied, dominated, etc. God did this so we might overcome language barriers and love one another with respect to our differences.

@Ian the world was divided not like the division which happened after confusion( division of languages) this division simply refers to the geographic distibution of various tribes

@ Mariafernanda

You need to re-read the bible, seriously. Ham's generations were NOT cursed, all it says is that Caanan's lineage would be cursed. Also, Caanan was the land that was promised, and that area was in the middle east, so......there goes your idea about them being African. That is why although the Caananites are of Hametic descent, they shared a very similar shemitic language (ie: how hebrew sounds like arabic, with the hard koph and the glutteral *sp* stop)

Divide-to seperate; to stay apart.

Divide- to seperate; to stay apart. Therefore, the Bible says the generations of Japheth have to divide from the generations of Shem or Ham. Whites and hispanics come from the generation of Japheth. Shem's generation are the middle easterns and asians. Ham's generation, the cursed people, consists of African natives. Therefore, the Bible DOES SAY to divide from the decendants of the other two generations.

Ninrod bush is it the christmas tree should we celebrate the birth of christ with this tree I heard the name throughout my reading of the bible a none christian said why would we have a christmas tree that's a symbol of Nimrods' bush He was not so good. I am searching for answers on Nimrod He came from Cush generation

ian, it just states what happens eventually. this isnt necessarily in chronological order. since this is more about lineages than it is about the actual story of the tower of babel. i just read an earlier chapter where it talks about sodom and gomorrah that the Lord destroyed, but its mentioned before the actual chapter where sodom and gomorrah are destroyed.

Twice the text refers to the world being divided up "after his/their tongues", yet this is before the account of the Tower of Babel (Ch12) which declares that all the world spoke one language. Can anyone clarify please?

The world was filled through the loins of NOAH all one people one language one belief
