Sons of HAM

 

Genesis 10:20

King James Version

20 These are the sons of Ham, 

after their families, after their tongues, 

in their countries, and in their nations.


We look deeper into Noah's sons.

One of which was Ham.

These verses tell us much:

Genesis 10:6

King James Version

6 And the sons of Ham; 

Cush, and Mizraim, 

and Phut, and Canaan.


Genesis 10:7-10

King James Version

7 And the sons of Cush

Seba, and Havilah, and Sabtah, 

and Raamah, and Sabtechah: 

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.


Genesis 10:13-14

King James Version

13 And Mizraim begat Ludim, and Anamim, 

and Lehabim, and Naphtuhim,

14 And Pathrusim, and Casluhim, 

(out of whom came Philistim,) and Caphtorim.


Genesis 10:15-19

15 And Canaan begat Sidon his first born, 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.
