“Now these are the generations of the sons of Noah, Shem, Ham, and Japheth: and unto them were sons born after the flood.”
Genesis 10:1 KJV
This is the story of the descendants of Noah’s three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth. After the great flood, they fathered many children. This is an incredibly important generation account to understand human history. This “Table of Nations” account is the earliest ethnological table found in the literature of the ancient world. Almost all the names included here have been verified and found in archeological sites over the past one hundred years. There are seventy names mentioned in the verses following this, in this chapter. Seventy followers of Jesus were sent out as a testimony that the Gospel of His Kingdom is meant for all people. God alone determines the boundaries of nations and seasons of history. Let’s take this glorious Gospel to every creature we meet, so that Jesus comes soon. Maranatha!
