Season 3 Episode 10 – The Nations!!
A’ight So Boom! - 4:53
Read Genesis 10 1 - 8:32
Generations of the sons of Noah (one generation removed)
What happens to them after the flood
Going to get their offspring as persons and groups of people
Read Genesis 10 2-5 - 15:21
Starting with Japheth (The second youngest)
Only two of his sons children are listed
We get people of the coastland
Distinguished from others by (each with his own) all within the coastlands of Japheth’s line
Lands - Piece of Ground, Territory, Country
Language - Tongue
Clans - Groups of people, conglomerates, held together from without rather than from within (as in not family bonded)
Nations - Community (some would consider culture)
Current thought that these groups were north, northwest or northeast of Israel (furthest removed from Israel)
Read Genesis 10 6-20 - 21:37
A long section (important?)
Next we have Ham (The Youngest)
Nimrod is the son of Cush
A person a first
A mighty (vigorous, manly) hunter
A saying comes from this
His kingdom, Nimrod’s kingdom
Babel, Erech, Accad and Calneh
Established in the land of Shinar
He went to build other cities (after the next chapter)
Nineveh, Calah, Rehoboth-Ir, Calah and Resen
Resen called a Great city
Canaan called out here (the curse is on Canaan, not Ham, a specific son of Ham)
Talks to their territory the extension of it
Could this be as we look forward to curse being carried out by Israel
The common refrain of clans, languages, lands and nations
Read Genesis 10 21-31 - 31:47
Does not go in order - calls out Eber first the great grandson of Shem
We get to Eber later and see Peleg (name means divided) and Joktan
Goes on to give Joktan’s line and the territory
Same Reprise (clans, languages, lands, nations)
Read Genesis 10 32 - 36:14
The Clans, groups, conglomerates, of Noah
Their Generations
Their nations
From these, these clans, spread over the earth
