Generations/Genealogies/Descents/Lineages/Pedigrees of Devils

(Genesis 10:15-30) | Dr. Gene Kim

Japheth, descents of the Caucasians; Ham, descents of the dark-skinned

people; Shem, descents of the. The three descents start intermingling.
There own pagan or cultural ideologies began to surface. Whatever
modern society wants to define it, cultural Ideal ologies. They all have been
meshing. Because of this, is why the Lord God wanted them to scatter
upon the face of the earth before He CONFOUNDED THE LANGUAGE.
History is repeating itself again. Recycling back to the time of Genesis 6
and the Nimrod and the Tower of Babel! This is why God called out
Abram/Abraham. This bloodline was pure, and God would use them. This
was during the time of God’s hard and strict laws! God wanted to keep
Abraham’s lineage intact and free of contamination. God’s Law, Abraham’s
children based on promise, not rules but, a new race of people. They
needed rules, to keep them aware of there condition and surroundings and
so, Moses law was formed. Time of government in Genesis 9 introduced
certain human standards. However, Nimrod through Satan found a broad
way around human government, where there is human law and standards.
The Devil likes to intermingle everything that is His Creator’s. Human
government is no exception. Interacting human government with his
temporary authority and calling it a one world government. This human and
satanic government is corrupt.

Ham’s Lineage
Genesis 10:15, 15 And Canaan begat Sidon/Zidon 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.

The Sidonites/Zidonites are descendants of Sidon/Zidon. Jezebel is his

offspring. Jezebel’s father is named Ithobaal I. Established the Canaanite
religion of Nimrod/Semiramis, wife and mother of Nimrod. Interesting note:
Ithobaal, Jezebel’s father may have either influenced Jezebel to start a
Baal religion in the name of her father, as a god or he was named after the
god, baal.
Ithobaal I, Jezebel’s father, is the name of a 9th-century BCE king
of Tyre mentioned in the story of Jezebel from the Hebrew Bible, and in a
citation by Josephus of a list of the kings of Tyre put together by the
Phoenician author Menander of Ephesus (2nd century BCE). Ithobaal is
listed as the founder of a new dynasty. During his reign, Tyre expanded its
power on the mainland, making all of Phoenicia its territory as far north
as Beirut, including Sidon, and even a part of the island of Cyprus.[citation
needed]
At the same time, Tyre also built new overseas
colonies: Botrys (now Batrun) near Byblos, and Auza in Libya.[

Relations to Ahab of Israel

Ithobaal held close diplomatic contacts with king Ahab of Israel. 1 Kings
16:31 relates that his daughter Jezebel married Ahab (874 – 853 BC),
[4]
and Phoenician influence in Samaria and the other Israelite cities was
extensive. In the First Kings passage, Ithobaal is labeled king of the
Sidonians. At this time Tyre and Sidon were consolidated into one
kingdom.
Menander's comment that Ithobaal had been a priest of Astarte before
becoming king explains why his daughter Jezebel was so zealous in the
promotion of the Phoenician gods, thus leading to the conflicts between
Elijah and Jezebel's forces described in 1 Kings 18 and 19.[5] Menander's
further statement that her father was a murderer sheds some light on her
choice of a way to solve the "Naboth problem" in 1 Kings 21
King of Tyre
The King of Tyre was the ruler of Tyre, the ancient Phoenician city in what
is now Lebanon. The traditional list of 12 kings, with reigns dated to 990–
785 BC, is derived from the lost history of Menander of Ephesus as quoted
by Josephus in Against Apion I. 116–127.[1] Josephus asserts that
Menander had drawn his list from the chronicles of Tyre itself.[2] Menander-
Josephus also contains a list of 9 kings and judges, with reigns dated to
591–532 BC in Against Apion I. 154–160.

with false prophets.
Why Should Christians Know about Semiramis?
A simple online search for the name Semiramis confirms the fact that the
world at large is still interested in who this woman was.
It’s important that Christians know what the Bible says—and what it does
not say—about figures like Semiramis. Without being familiar with the truth,
a Believer can fall susceptible to deception. Many cults and conspiracy
theories have arisen from a lack of knowledge and truth.
“Timothy, guard what has been entrusted to your care. Turn away from
godless chatter and the opposing ideas of what is falsely called knowledge,
which some have professed and in so doing have departed from
the faith” (1 Timothy 5:20-21).
The Sidonians were sea trading people who spread around the known world at
the time, spreading Nimrod’s religion with it. Also, when the sons of God and the
Nephilim were being pushed out and extinguished by Israel’s Joshua, they would
go into the mountains and caves, digging cities and tunnel systems below the
earth, to hide from the wrath of God, bent on preserving those created in His
image and likeness. They moved to the farthest landmasses near the ocean
around the world. There have been incredible confirmation of Giant temple
structures, statues, figurines, effigies, pyramids, ziggurats, and legends’, fables,
stars, and myths. South America is confirmed of the arrival of the Nephilim
offspring. The countries megalithic and cyclopean pyramid structures and walls
and only God knows, what else has been discovered in Peru, Inca stonework!
Easter Island is an island and special territory of Chile in the
southeastern Pacific Ocean, at the southeasternmost point of the
Polynesian Triangle in Oceania. The island is most famous for its
nearly 1,000 extant monumental statues, called moai, which were
created by the early Rapa Nui people. In 1995, UNESCO named
Easter Island a World Heritage Site, with much of the island
protected within Rapa Nui National Park.
Canaan begat Heth. Who is he? Genesis 23:5-6, 5 And the children of Heth
answered Abraham, saying unto him, 6 Hear us, my lord: thou art a mighty
prince among us: in the choice of our sepulchers/tombs/graves bury thy
dead; none of us shall withhold from thee his sepulcher/tombs/graves, but
that thou mayest bury thy dead.
Why are the children of Heth close to Abraham’s territory? Canaan’s sons
were Sidon and Heth. Jezebel being queen of Hebrews/Israel at the time,
came from Sidon. God pronounced a curse on Canaan (the Hebrews would
eventually take over Canaan’s territory. Canaan’s
descendants/offspring/successors/progenies would become servant of
servants). God did not just pick and choose the Canaanite descendants.
They were cursed by Noah. Some of the tribes were so evil that God would
have them exterminated! They were part Nephilim, and their culture and
seed could contaminate and spread their genes among humanity, like their
hybrid forefathers before the flood. Satan’s lineage was trying to produce a
second incursion! This is one of the reasons why, the Lord God had to
drive them out of the land of Canaan. A most important reason was to keep
the seed/offspring of the woman’s bloodline pure in this land. The Messiah
Jesus Christ would eventually be born in the city of Bethlehem in Canaan!
Heth’s name means terrible in the Hebrew Translation. ‫נורא‬. More Hebrew
words for terrible. adjective ‫נֹוָר א‬. dire, frightful, fearful, terrific, shocking.
adjective ‫ָאיֹום‬. awful, dreadful, hideous, fearful, frightful. Heth is related to
the terror of the day, to the Jews, which are the Hittites! Another example is
2 Kings 7:6, 6 For the LORD had made the host of the Syrians to hear a
noise of chariots, and a noise of horses, even the noise of a great host: and
they said one to another, Lo, the king of Israel hath hired against us the
kings of the Hittites, and the kings of the Egyptians, to come upon us.
The Hittites are in the list with the Egyptians and other people that the
Syrians dreaded. The Hittites were then a terrible people. As a mater of
fact, king David murdered Uriah, the Hittite and took his wife Bathsheba!
They have a lineage and a history through Heth. Other examples are in
Judges 1:26, 26 And the man went into the land of the Hittites, and built a
city, and called the name thereof Luz: which is the name thereof unto this
day; Ezekiel 16:3, 3 And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD unto Jerusalem; Thy
birth and thy nativity is of the land of Canaan; thy father was an Amorite,
and thy mother an Hittite.
Genesis 10:16, And from Canaan’s seed/offspring, 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. All these
Canaanite names, after this special type of unholy and strange hybrid
people were born, their families and their lineages were Canaanites and
spread abroad throughout their region. This is what the Hebrews/Jews
were up against! Another attempt to spread throughout the region and
contaminate the image of God by intermingling with those living in the land
as well and, the Hebrew/Jews! Remember, in Genesis 3:15 King James
Version 15 And I will put enmity between thee and the
woman, and between thy seed and her seed (Jesus Christ and
all those whom God gave to Him, to preserve); it shall bruise
thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel. Satan, as he did
before the judgment flood of God which destroyed every
living thing that had corrupted itself on the surface of the
earth, was making another attempt at contaminating the
human bloodline that Jesus Christ would eventually come
through in the flesh of mankind. These are the Canaanite tribes.
References in Exodus 13, 33, 34; Joshua 3; Deuteronomy 7, 20,12,24.
The hint for the meaning of ‘ites’ (properly pronounced ‘eet’)
comes from this page on the Hebrews. A good translation is
“people of “, along the lines of descendants, or people
groups. The root name is a primary node in terms of the
branch of a tree and identifies your clan-relationship – your
people.
The Jebusites reading in the book of Exodus, one of the mosaic books, this
group is occasionally mentioned as enemies and a thorn in the side of the
Hebrews/Jews. The Hittites were the most historical evidence that they, as
a people, truly existed! The Scriptures prove themselves to be true!
This is the chief ethnic subject of the Old Testament, Hamites, Japhethites,
Caananites, Jebusites, Hittites, Amorites, Girgashites, Hivites, Sinites,
Arvadites, Hamathites, Zemarites, Perrizites, etc. They do not need to be
pinpointed in a land that is not 100 miles long. There native
boundaries and dwelling places are given in the next verse, which is
verse 19 of Genesis chapter 10. Genesis 10:19 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. This is the boundary and border line of the Canaanites.
Genesis 10:19, speaks of the Hebrew/Jewish land, the border of the
Canaanites. All the land of Canaan was promised to Abraham/Hebrew,
Isaac/Hebrew, and Jacob/Israel and their offspring. God, through the angel
of the Lord eventually conquered the hybrid strangers who were occupying
the land, to make a way for the inevitable entrance of the seed of the
woman, to be born in Bethlehem! I am going to send an angel in front of
you, to guard you on the way and to bring you to the place that I have
prepared. Be attentive to him and listen to his voice; do not rebel against
him, for he will not pardon your transgression; for my name is in him. But if
you listen attentively to his voice and do all that I say, then I will be an
enemy to your enemies and a foe to your foes. When my angel goes in
front of you, and brings you to the Amorites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the
Canaanites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites, and I blot them out (Exodus
23:20-23). I am the LORD, that is My name; My glory I give to no other, nor
My praise to idols (Isaiah 42:8). Since God will not share His name or glory
with anyone else, this angel must be God.
They (Canaanites) string-out to Lebanon and Beersheba from the coast-
line Gaza (strip) and Gerar, to the river Jordan and undoubtably they were
in Gilead, Bashan, and Moab before Lots children were born. This is all the
boundaries of their region. Here are the 4 main cities in this boundary.
Sodom, and Gomorrah, and Admah, and Zeboim. These cities were
operating with in God pronounced judgment on them and burned them to
the ground! Along with Sodom and Gomorrah, Admah and Zeboim were
acting in an unholy unison sexually, disgusting perversion and vile culture,
teamed-up and shared together. We read about Sodom and Gomorrah’s
homosexuality and their chasing after the strange flesh of fallen angels in
the Scriptures. Just as an interesting side note. Out of all the names here,
why is it that from Ham’s lineage, there were so many bad seed? We must
go back at what happened to Ham, Canaan and Noah. 2) What Ham did to
Noah is like what Eve did in the Garden of Eden. 1) This isn’t fact but if one
is open, to the idea that Satan did something with Eve. Satan’s act could
have been sexual in the Garden with Eve, but it may not be sexual as
humans are familiar with. This could be a type of intermingling that we are
not familiar with. 3) Another thought is artificial insemination. The Bible
makes an interesting statement here. Eve is the mother of all living, both in
the image of God and the hybrid/half angel and half human children! God,
performed surgery and opened Adam’s body, took one of his ribs and
formed Eve. The idea of another way of producing a supernatural effect is
not unbelievable! The same indication is given to Ham as well. 4) I’m
leaning on Canaan being born with hybrid genetics from his mother’s side
of the family. The Bible makes an interesting statement, Ham was the
father of Canaan. Then it goes on to tell the story about Noah and his son
(grandson) Canaan and then how Ham reacted, as if what Canaan did was
funny. Ham wasn’t cursed by Noah, Canaan was. The land that was
promised to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob was not named, the land of Ham
but Canaan! Its very strange that Noah and his son’s wives are not
mentioned in Scripture in the Bible. Were the names intentionally left out?
Another possibility that the Nephilim culture survived is that they may have
returned. Still another possibility is that they survived the flood! Scripture
say’s that all flesh was destroyed from the surface of the planet. These
creatures had hybrid intelligence! They left megalithic and Cyclopean
structures as evidence! The Nephilim were master builders of structures
and using massive stone blocks that were cut and fitted in a way that a
piece of paper could not fit in the groves of a cut stone. Wouldn’t that be
the case with water? Airtight! They were very instrumental in the
construction of the temple of God who king Solomon got the credit for
building and king Harim of Tyre in Lebanon who was credited for the
structures in Baalbek. Not only on the surface of the earth but deep
underground as well! See Solomon and Hiram 1 Kings 5. Still
another possibility is that they flew into space.
Genesis 10:19, the city of Lasha. Judges 18:29-31, 29 And they called the
name of the city Dan, after the name of Dan their father, who was born unto
Israel: howbeit the name of the city was Laish at the first. 30 And the
children of Dan set up the graven image: and Jonathan, the son of
Gershom, the son of Manasseh, he and his sons were priests (a form of
Catholicism?) to the tribe of Dan until the day of the captivity of the land.
31
And they set them up Micah's graven image, which he made, all the time
that the house of God was in Shiloh. Notice that this pre-Catholic religion
was already in place, all the way! It never ended! Until the Babylonian
captivity. This is strange indeed.
Judges 17:10,
And Micah said unto him, Dwell with me, and be unto me a father
and a priest (pre-Catholic religion), and I will give thee ten shekels of silver
by the year, and a suit of apparel (Catholic priest clothing consists of
different garments that vary according to the occasion and the liturgical
season. The cassock is a long, buttoned garment that is worn by priests as
ordinary dress and under other vestments12. The Alb is a long, white linen
robe that is worn by the priest during the Mass and symbolizes purity3. The
vestments are the outer garments that cover the cassock and the Alb and
have different colors and styles4. Green vestments are common for daily
use and red vestments are used on Palm Sunday and by cardinals4.), and
thy victuals. So, the Levite went in.
When looking at Genesis 10:19. We see pre-Catholic rituals and men’s
traditions calling men father and a title of a priest. If they did not get this
from Scripture, where did they get this from? They just didn’t get it out of
the thin air! If it isn’t from the Bible, where do they get this from? The
Catholics got it from an ancient religious cultural practice of the Danites.
Where did the Danites get it from? Remember, Laish is from Ham’s line of
Nimrod and Semiramis religion! If we study their religion, it’s very similar to
Catholicism, Masonry, and all kinds of wicked religions today that are
deceiving people all over the world!
The interesting lineage that one can encounter is not Japheth and Shem’s
but Ham’s. Ham’s line is most famous in Genesis 10. Maybe this is why
God had to start something with Abram/Abraham. Why! Because Ham was
getting all the fame at this period! Nimrod, the mighty hunter before God,
came from the line of Ham. After God confused the plans of Nimrod at the
building of the Tower of Babel, all the cultures and their many languages,
carried Nimrod’s religion with them, in different names that they translated
but the same Nimrod, around the world! The Fundamental Worldview
that Shapes Everything begin with Nimrod: The Latin phrase E
pluribus Unum, literally translated as “Out of many, one,” was the
original motto of the United States, adopted by an Act of Congress in
1782. The motto refers to the emergence of a single nation out of the
union of the 13 original colonies, and is emblazoned across the Great
Seal of the United States.
Ancient historians, including Berossus (third century B.C.E.), name the
initial leading ruler of Assyria as Euchous. Modern Sumerologists have
suggested Euchous and Enmerkar are the same individual. Interestingly,
the ancient historians directly named Euchous as being Nimrod himself,
also linking him to Belus of Babylon. Different names in different cultures—
but the same individual.
The city of Lasha or Laish in extreme North Palestine/Philistine near the
head waters of the Jordan. Laish is the city where the tribe of Dan installs a
priest called father and endorses images as an aid to worship. The Danites
were a people situated on the farthest parts of the North as well.
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. So,
notice this revelation, speaking in tongues are different known languages
and not Pentecostal gibberish! Their Hamite way of language is of the
Sodomites, etc.!
Ham’s sons have their own language and nations. God saw that when
these people spread out, they were in their own territory. This was
throughout the Bible. We will see this again in Genesis 11. All these
descendants knew that they would have to be in their own territories. This
behavior was commanded to them by the Lord. It was a command in
Genesis 9, to be fruitful and multiply, replenish the earth and spread it out.
This command was understood for them to be in their own territory. They
were not supposed to intermingle with each other. When we are based on
human government, which was at the dispensation of that time, we don’t
want to be of a one-world government. It’s best to be in our own separate
territories. A human government when it goes by itself in human tradition,
human knowledge, etc., It’s best that nations stay in their own lanes. If we
all unite, it becomes what we see today. The only time that believers can
get together and intermingle and become one is when, we see this
happening in the New Testament. Why is this? Because we aren’t based
on human government. We are based on God’s spiritual Kingdom. Based
on God’s spiritual world, we can become one in purpose. When mankind is
left to his own devices, its best that we separate from each other. Why?
When one troublemaker gets along with another like them, it becomes a
mess! They will have to be divided before their behavior becomes worse
off!
Genesis 10:21, King James Version 21, Unto Shem also, the father
of all the children of Eber, the brother of Japheth the elder,
even to him were children born. Some people say that the
Bible is hard to understand. This Shem has become very
important to God. God chose this lineage where the children
of Israel would come out. From Shems line, we see Eber
being born. There are some interesting things in Scripture
concerning the Shemites. Shem is Japheth’s brother. Notice
that Japheth is older than Shem. Shem had children from his
line.
Churches are supposed to be there so that one can study the
Bible, having a teacher of the word, who can teach, we will
find out, with consistent study that the Bible is not hard to
understand. Its hard to understand at the beginning because
one doesn’t grow to understand unless one studies the
Scriptures in a Bible BELIEVING CHURCH! One will get the
language and the wording of the Scriptures within 6 months
to a year under a teacher who interprets it with inspiration
from the Holy Spirit. Not just any old church that teaches
verses.
Genesis 10:22, King James Version 22, “The children of Shem; Elam, and
Asshur, and Arphaxad, and Lud, and Aram.” Eber means beyond the
(Euphrates) river or a shoot or sprout. See Joshua 24:2, And Joshua said
unto all the people, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, Your fathers dwelt
on the other side of the flood in old time, even Terah, the father of
Abraham, and the father of Nachor: and they served other gods. Before we
cover the Tower of Babel and/or this religious ziggurat shape of the tower,
we will cover all of these different names. Let’s see how they collide over
here, in Genesis 11. When the Bible gives its language of the word river,
we will know what the word is referring to. In Revelation 19, the Euphrates
River is mentioned. During their timeline of the Hebrews/Jews, it’s obvious
that THIS RIVER was carried all the way, to Revelation and to, the present
day! So, we can guess where Eber went. Shem is given a territory East of
the Euphrates. This would include Mesopotamia, Babylon, Persia, Iraq,
Iran, Pakistan, Afghanistan and on Eastward.
Covering the Arabic culture, they have a bloodline of Semites. Ham’s
lineage, the Arab’s have a lineage trace with Africa or Ham’s lineage as
well. So, what Arabic and Ham’s lineages are intermingled! This is normal
in Shem’s line remember, we covered Asshur in Genesis 10:22, Shem was
going to Ham’s area and there we see bloodline intermingling. This is
inevitable, unavoidable, predictable, and expected. Satan was on a
mission, to seek out and destroy the seed of the woman or Jesus Christ’s
bloodline during the BC’s! Why? Because when people spread out, Satan’s
strategy plan, policy, and/or approach, to intermingle and stop the Messiah
from being born. God would eventually start a new race of people through
Abraham! As the bloodline spread out and intermingled, Nimrod’s culture
was still being carried on! We see then, a lot of the Arabic culture through
Shem’s line. Now, we read on and see Elam is the children of Shem that
will be covered in Genesis 10:22. Elam means youth. This is the
Arabic/Muslim culture that we can think of at that period. Elam (Iraq),
Asshur (The ancestor of the Assyrians of Assyria). Interesting note that the
Scriptures point out that the Assyrians were Egyptians and shared a similar
culture. Even though it is in the region of Africa, there is Semitic inklings of
culture some intermingling among the bloodlines at that period. This is
another story, in that the Egyptians hated the shepherds, why? Because
the shepherds came from the Assyrian line who took over the Egyptians
who were known as shepherd kings. Then when Moses came out, this was
again, why the Egyptians hated the shepherds. Now, we see Arphaxad
who dwells in the Northern parts of Assyria in or near Armenia,
intermingling with Tubal and Meshack. Lud (Asia Minor) who intermingled
with Meshack and Rephaim. Aram means highland in Hebrew. Aramaic
and Aramaeans are derivation, origin, root, or source. The reference is to
the Assyrians just west of the Euphrates River who intermingled with the
Canaanites and descendants of Heth.
The children of Aram. Genesis 10:23, King James Version 23 And the
children of Aram; Uz, and Hul, and Gether, and Mash.
Uz. There was a man who lived in the land of UZ. Job 1:1, King James
Version 1 There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and
that man was perfect and upright, and one that feared God, and eschewed
avoided, shunned, abjured, renounced, avoided, shunned evil. The famous
founder of the land of UZ (Firmness) where Jews/Israel will take refuge
during the Tribulation period. In Lamentations 4:21, “Rejoice and be glad,
O daughter of (Land of Uz) Edom (Jordanians or land of Jordan), that
dwellest in the land of Uz; the cup also shall pass through unto thee: thou
shalt be drunken, and shalt make thyself naked.” King James Version
(KJV).
Hul of the children of Aram and grandson of Shem. Hul’s name means
circle in Hebrew. Hitchcock’s Bible Names Dictionary – Hul means pain,
infirmity. Armenia and/or Western Syria are possible locations. 1 Chronicles
1:17, The sons of Shem; Elam, and Asshur, and Arphaxad, and Lud, and
Aram, and Uz, and Hul, and Gether, and Meshech. International Standard
Bible Encyclopedia 1915, ew>yaquq, which stands on the West of Wady el-
`Amud, to the Northwest of Gennesaret, about 4 miles from the sea. This
would fall on the boundary of Zebulun and Naphtali, between Tabor and
Hannathon (Joshua 19:14, “And the border compasseth it on the north side
to Hannathon: and the outgoings thereof are in the valley of Jiphthahel:”).
The identification may be correct; but it seems too far from Tabor.
The children of Aram. Gether is unlocated. 1 Chronicles 1:17, The sons of
Shem; Elam, and Asshur, and Arphaxad, and Lud, and Aram, and Uz, and
Hul, and Gether, and Meshech. In Islamic traditions, he (here called 'Athir')
is sometimes considered the father of Thamud, whose descendant was the
Islamic prophet Salih.[1] According to the first-century Jewish
historian Josephus, Gether is an ancestor of the Bactrians.[2] Jerome (c.
390) considers Gether the ancestor of the Acarnanians.[3] Isidore of
Seville (c. 635) makes him ancestor of the Acarnanians or Curians.[4]
Australian Chinese revolutionary Tse Tsan-Tai makes him the ancestor of
the Polynesians.[5] References[edit]

The children of Aram. Mash was a son of Aram according to Genesis
10:23. In Arabic traditions, Mash is considered the father of Nimrod
(not Nimrod bin Kush bin Kanan), who begot Kinan, who in turn begot
another Nimrod, and the lattermost's descendants mixed with those
of Asshur (i.e. Assyrians).[12] Tse Tsan-Tai identifies his descendants with
the indigenous peoples of Siberia.[13]
In 1 Chronicles 1:17, Meshech is replaced with Mash. Are they one in the
same? MASH - (mash): Named in Gen 10:23 as one of the sons of
Aramaic in the parallel passage in 1 Ch 1:17 the name is given as
"Meshech" (meshekh, Meshach), and the Septuagint (Mosoch) supports
this form in both passages. "Meshech," however, is a Japhetic name (Gen
10:2), and "Mash" would seem to be the original reading. In the
Bible, Meshech or Mosoch (Hebrew: ‫ ֶמ ֶׁש ך‬Mešeḵ "price" or "precious") is
named as a son of Japheth in Genesis 10:2 and 1 Chronicles 1:5. Another
Meshech is named as a son of Shem in 1 Chronicles 1:17 (corresponding
to the form Mash in Genesis 10).
Historical interpretations
Meshech is mentioned along with Tubal (and Rosh, in certain translations)
as principalities of "Gog, prince of Magog" in Ezekiel 38:2 and 39:1, and is
considered a Japhetite tribe, identified by Flavius Josephus with
the Cappadocian "Mosocheni" (Mushki, also associated
with Phrygians or Bryges) and their capital Mazaca. In Hippolytus of
Rome's chronicle (234 AD), the "Illyrians" were identified as Meshech's
offspring. In addition, Georgians have traditions that they, and other
Caucasus people such as Armenians, share descent from Meshech
(Georgian: Meskheti), Tubal, and Togarmah.
In 1498, Annio da Viterbo published fragments known as Pseudo-
Berossus, now considered a forgery, claiming that Babylonian records had
shown a son of Japheth called Samothes had begun settling what later
became Gaul in the 13th year of Nimrod. Later historians such as Raphael
Holinshed (1577) identified Samothes as Meshech, and asserted that he
first ruled also in Britain.
Beginning from the 16th century, some European scholars proposed the
idea that the Muscovites had stemmed from Meshech. Sir Walter
Raleigh (c. 1616) attributes this opinion to Philipp Melanchthon (1497–
1560) and to Benito Arias Montano (1571), and it was also followed later
by Jonathan Edwards (1703–1758). Moreover, according to a legend first
appearing in the Kievan Synopsis (1674),[2] Moscow (Moskva) was founded
by King Mosokh son of Japheth (i.e. Meshech), and was named for him
and his wife, Kva. In this legend, they are also said to have had a son, Ya,
and daughter, Vuza, who gave their names to the nearby Yauza River.[3]
According to Archibald Sayce, Meshech can be identified with Muska, a
name appearing in Assyrian inscriptions, and generally believed to refer to
the Mushki.[4]
Most reference books since Flavius Josephus generally identify Meshech in
Ezekiel's time as an area in modern Turkey.[5]

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Moschia (Meskheti, possibly related to Mushki) is a mountainous region
of Georgia between Iberia, Armenia, and Colchis. The Moschian
Mountains were the connecting chain between the Caucasus and Anti-
Taurus Mountains. The people of that area were known as the Moschi.
They may have been connected to the Mushki.
Wilhelm Gesenius suggested that the Moschi were descended from the
Biblical Meshech tribe.
Strabo mentions the Moschian Mountains as joining
the Caucasus (Geography, 11.2.1). He says that the Moschian country lay
above the rivers Phasis, Glaucus, and Hippus (Geography, 11.2.17). In it
"lies the temple of Leucothea, founded by Phrixus, and the oracle of
Phrixus, where a ram is never sacrificed; it was once rich, but it was robbed
in our time by Pharnaces, and a little later by Mithridates of Pergamum."
(ibid).
According to the renowned scholar of the Caucasian studies Cyril
Toumanoff, the Moschians were the early proto-Georgian tribes which were
integrated into the first early Georgian state of Iberia.[1]
Mushki are mentioned in the cuneiform tablets of Tiglath-Pileser
I of Assyria dating to 1115–1100 B.C. He led a campaign against them in
the North of Commagene and mountains of Georgia and Armenia.
According to Igor Diakonoff, the Mushki possibly were speakers of Proto-
Armenian, who carried their language from the Balkans across Asia Minor,
mixing with Hurrians (and Urartians) and Luwians along the way.
[2]
However, the connection between the Mushki and Armenian languages
is quite unclear and many modern scholars have rejected a direct linguistic
relationship.[3][4][5][6] Additionally, genetic research does not support
significant admixture into the Armenian nation after 1200 BCE, making the
Mushki, if they indeed migrated from a Balkan or western Anatolian
homeland during or after the Bronze Age Collapse, unlikely candidates for
the Proto-Armenians.[7][8] However, as others have placed (at least the
Eastern) Mushki or Meskhi homeland in South Caucasus region mostly
speaking Georgian language as their native.
Medieval maps mention with Moschi region Armenian and Iberian parts.[9]

Salah
means extension in Hebrew.
Selah (Hebrew: ‫ֶׁש ַל ח‬, romanized: Šélaḥ), Salah or Sala (Greek: Σαλά – Sal
á) or Shelah is an ancestor of the Israelites and Ishmaelites according to
the Table of Nations in Genesis 10. He is thus one of the table's "seventy
names". He is also mentioned in Genesis 11:12–15, 1 Chronicles 1:18–24,
and Luke 3:35–36.
In the ancestral line from Noah to Abraham, he is the son of Arpachshad (in
the Masoretic Text and Samaritan Pentateuch[1][full citation needed]) or Cainan (in
the Septuagint) and the father of Eber. The name Eber for his son is the
original eponym of the Hebrew people, from the root ‘abar (‫עבר‬, ‫)ָע ַב ר‬, "to
cross over".[2][3][4]
The Gospel of Luke and Book of Jubilees both agree with the Septuagint in
making Selah the son of Cainan, adding the information that his mother
was Milcah (the daughter of Madai), while his wife is named as Mu'ak,
daughter of Kesed (another son of Arphachsad).
The death age of Selah is given as 433 (Masoretic),[5] 460 (Septuagint),
[6]
and 460 (Samaritan).[7]
Henry M. Morris states that Arpachshad, Selah, and Eber are listed as the
most important sons since they were in the line of the promised Seed of the
Woman.[8]

*Eber (Hebrew: ‫ֵע ֶב ר‬, romanized: ʿĒḇer; Biblical

Greek: Ἔβερ, romanized: Éber; Arabic: ‫ٰعاِبر‬, romanized: ʿĀbir) is an
ancestor of the Ishmaelites and the Israelites according to the "Table of
Nations" in the Book of Genesis (Genesis 10–11) and the Books of
Chronicles (1 Chronicles 1).

Lineage[edit]
Eber was a great-grandson of Noah's son Shem and the father of Peleg,
born when Eber was 34 years old,[1] and of Joktan. He was the son
of Shelah, a distant ancestor of Abraham. According to the Hebrew Bible,
Eber died at the age of 464.[1][2]
In the Septuagint, the name is written as Heber/Eber (῞Εβερ/Ἔβερ), and
his father is called Sala (Σαλά/Σάλα). His son is called Phaleg/Phalek
(Φαλέγ/Φάλεκ), born when Heber was 34 years old, and he had other sons
and daughters. Heber lived to an age of 464 years.[3][4]

Name[edit]
The Aramaic/Hebrew root ‫( עבר‬ʕ-b-r) is connected with crossing over and
the beyond.[5] Considering that other names for descendants of Shem also
stand for places, Eber can also be considered the name of an area,
perhaps near Assyria.[6] A number of mediaeval scholars such as Michael
the Syrian, Bar Hebraeus, and Agapius the Historian mentioned the
prevailing view, that the Hebrews had received their name from Eber, while
also pointing out that according to others, the name "Hebrew" meant "those
who cross", in reference to those who crossed the Euphrates river
with Abram from Ur to Harran, and then to the land of Canaan.
In some translations of the New Testament, he is referred to once
as Heber/Eber ([Luke 3:35, Biblical Greek: Ἔβερ] ...the son of Serug, the
son of Reu, the son of Peleg, the son of Heber, the son of Selah...) and
should not be confused with the Heber mentioned at Genesis 46:17 and
in Numbers 26:45 (different Hebrew spelling, ‫חבר‬, with a heth instead of
an ayin), grandson of Asher.

Hebrew[edit]
The 13th-century Muslim historian Abu al-Fida relates a story noting that
the patriarch Eber (great-grandson of Shem) refused to help with the
building of the Tower of Babel so that his language was not confused when
it was abandoned. He and his family alone retained the original human
language (a concept referred to as lingua humana in Latin), Hebrew, a
language named after Eber.[7] (There are different religious positions on this
issue; see also Adamic language.)
[Genesis 10:21] Also to Shem, the father of all the Children of Eber,
and the older brother of Japheth, children were born. (NASB)

In Islam[edit]
See also: Hud (prophet)
Eber is sometimes referred to in classical Islamic writings as the "father"
of the "prehistoric, original Arabs" (the ʿArab al-ʿĀriba), who lived in
the Arabian Peninsula after the Deluge.[8] Eber was also identified with
the Quranic prophet Hud by some of the early Muslim authorities.
[9]
Other sources identify the prophet Hud as Eber's son.[9][10]

Remember Genesis 10:21, King James Version (KJV 1900) 21 Unto
Shem also, the father of all the children of Eber, the brother of Japheth the
elder, even to him were children born. Eber is not just born from Shem, he
comes all the way out from a lineage from Elam, and Asshur, and
Arphaxad, and Lud, and from Aram’s line, Uz, and Hul, and Gether, and
Meshech/Mash. Then Arphaxad begat Salah means extension in Hebrew.
Selah (Hebrew: ‫ֶׁש ַל ח‬, romanized: Šélaḥ), Salah or Sala (Greek: Σαλά – Sal
á) or Shelah is an ancestor of the Israelites.
Eber comes from Arphaxad nearby Armenia. Why would God cover Eber?
EBER IS VERY IMPORTANT ABOUT The two main Semites that we would
think about. When we talk about the Asian community, they include the
Pacific Islanders, but mainly think in terms of the Orient. Semites = Orient
and/or Jews as well.

*Genesis 10:25, King James Version 25 And unto Eber were born two
sons: the name of one was Peleg; for in his days was the earth divided;
and his brother's name was Joktan. (Peleg split from his brother Joktan).

*Peleg, read 1 Chronicles to Luke, this is where we get the Jewish

descendants. Jocktan, Peleg’s brother who had a divide between them,
where the descendants of the Orientals. When did they split? During
Peleg’s day, when they were divided! We can assume/guess at this time
when God confounded the language at the Tower of Babel. This caused a
divide in Eber’s lineage. The Jewish descendants carried on to the Western
part and the Eastern part or Near East is where we get Japan, China,
Korea, etc.

*"Paleg" redirects here. For the indigenous sugarcane wine from the
Philippines, see Palek.
Peleg (Hebrew: ‫ֶּפ ֶל ג‬, romanized: Péleḡ,
in pausa Hebrew: ‫ָּפ ֶל ג‬, romanized: Pā́leḡ, "division"; Biblical
Greek: Φάλεκ, romanized: Phálek) is mentioned in the Hebrew Bible as
one of the two sons of Eber, an ancestor of the Ishmaelites and
the Israelites, according to the Generations of Noah in Genesis 10–
11 and 1 Chronicles 1. Peleg is where we get the Jewish descendants.

In Scriptures[edit]
Peleg's son was Reu, born when Peleg was thirty, and he had other sons
and daughters. According to the Hebrew Bible, Peleg lived to the age of
239 years, (Genesis 11:16–19) (up to when Terah was 118).
In the Septuagint and some Christian Bibles derived from it, Peleg is
called Phaleg and his father is called Heber. His son is called Ragau, born
when Phaleg was 130 years old, and he had other sons and daughters.
According to the Septuagint, Phaleg lived to an age of 339 years.
(Septuagint Genesis 11:16-19) Modern translations generally use the
names and dating as in the Masoretic Hebrew text. (compare Genesis
11:16–19)

"The earth was divided" or Split. Peleg and Joktan lineage separated
from each other and then split the lineage.
According to Genesis 10:25 and 1 Chronicles 1:19, it was during the time of
Peleg that the earth was divided – traditionally, this is often assumed to be
just before, during, or after the failure of the Tower of Babel, whose
construction was traditionally attributed to Nimrod. The meaning of the
Earth being divided is usually taken to refer to a patriarchal division of the
world, or possibly just the Eastern Hemisphere, into allotted portions
among the three sons of Noah for future occupation, as specifically
described in the Book of Jubilees, Biblical Antiquities of Philo, Kitab al-
Magall, Flavius Josephus,[1] and numerous other antiquarian and mediaeval
sources, even as late as Archbishop Ussher, in his Annals of the World.
[2]
One account, the Conflict of Adam and Eve with Satan, states that "In the
days of Phalek (Peleg), the earth was divided a second time among the
three sons of Noah; Shem, Ham and Japheth" – it had been divided once
previously among the three sons by Noah himself.[3]
Some Creationists interpret this verse to refer to the continent
of Pangaea being split into the modern continents.[4]

Popularity of the name[edit]

Peleg is a common first name and surname in Israel, also being the root
lettering for sailing (lehaflig ‫ )להפליג‬and a military half-bivouac tent (peleg-
ohel ‫)פלג אוהל‬. The meaning of Peleg in English is "brook", a little river.

"Eber"

Joktan (also written

as Yoktan; Hebrew: ‫ָי ְק ָט ן‬, Modern: Yŏqtan, Tiberian: Yāqṭān; Arabic: ‫يقطان‬,
romanized: Yaqṭān) was the second of the two sons of Eber (Book of
Genesis 10:25; 1 Chronicles 1:19) mentioned in the Hebrew Bible. He
descends from Shem, son of Noah.
In the Book of Genesis 10:25 it reads: "And unto Eber were born two sons:
the name of one was Peleg; for in his days was the earth divided; and his
brother's name was Joktan." Joktan is where we get the Orient from.
Joktan's sons in the order provided in Genesis 10:26–29,
were Almodad, Sheleph, Hazarmaveth, Jerah, Hadoram, Uzal, Diklah,
Obal, Abimael, Sheba, Ophir, Havilah, and Jobab.
In Pseudo-Philo's account (ca. 70), Joktan was first made prince over the
children of Shem, just as Nimrod and Phenech were princes over the
children of Ham and Japheth, respectively. In his version, the three princes
command all persons to bake bricks for the Tower of Babel; however,
twelve, including several of Joktan's own sons, as well as Abraham and
Lot, refuse the orders. Joktan smuggles them out of Shinar and into the
mountains, to the annoyance of the other two princes.[1]

South Arabian narrative[edit]

 Statue of a South Arabian king. According to
Arab genealogy, South Arabians descend from Qahtan who is identified
with Joktan.
There is an Arab tradition that Joktan was the progenitor of all the purest
tribes of Southern Arabia.[2] Joktan has been identified with Qahtān (Arabic:
‫)قحطان‬, the ancestral figure of Qahtanites, in traditional Arab genealogy.
[3]
Three of Joktan's sons have connections to South Arabia. Sheba is
identified as the ancient South Arabian kingdom of Saba.
[4]
Hazarmaveth (Biblical Hebrew: ‫ֲח ַצ ְר ָמ ֶו ת‬, tr. Ḥăṣarmāweṯ; Arabic:
‫ )حضرموت‬has been identified with the South Arabian region
of Hadhramaut and according to various Bible dictionaries, the name
"Hazarmaveth" means "court of death" which reflects a meaning similar to
the Arabic folk etymologies of the region.[5] Hadoram according to Rabbi
Aryeh Kaplan is interpreted as denoting "the south" and it was a fortress to
the south of Yemen's Sana'a.[6]
Mongoloid race theory[edit]

Robert Wilkinson's 1823 map of the

descendants of Noah's sons, showing Joktan and his sons as having
populated eastern
Asia: Havilah is Tibet, Sheba is Deccan, Jobab is Mongolia, Obal
is China, Abimael is Indochina, Diklah is Japan, and Ophir is Indonesia,
particularly the Maluku Islands.
Obsolete theories (based on a literal reading of Genesis 10:30, which
states that Joktan's descendants migrated eastward) suggested that Joktan
is the progenitor of the Mongoloid race, including east Asians and
the indigenous peoples of the Americas, with the Yucatan
Peninsula supposedly being named after Joktan.[7][8] One early proponent of
this theory was the theologian Benito Arias Montano, who proposed a link
between the names of Ophir, Joktan's son, and Peru.[8]

*Peleg, read 1 Chronicles to Luke, this is where we get the Jewish

descendants. Jocktan, Peleg’s brother who had a divide between them,
where the descendants of the Orientals. When did they split? During
Peleg’s day, when they were divided! We can assume/guess at this time
when God confounded the language at the Tower of Babel. This caused a
divide in Eber’s lineage. The Jewish descendants carried on to the Western
part and the Eastern part or Near East is where we get Japan, China,
Korea, etc.
We will see why this is the case for Joktan. 1). Must come from Shem and
not Japheth. Why? The Scriptures say that Japheth’s descendants will be
enlarged. Then, he will dwell in the tents of Shem. This is a prophecy!
When we look throughout history, which of the three main sociological
groups Black, Caucasian, and the Mongol tribes, colonized and became so
large and then grew into other people’s places? They even dwelt in Shem’s
tent! This is pretty evident and leads to the Caucasian side. The Shemites
were the one, just like the native Americans. Even, the Orient itself, white
people colonized and dwelt into their territory! 2). When we look in Genesis
10:26, 26 And Joktan begat Almodad, and Sheleph, and Hazarmaveth, and
Jerah, 27 And Hadoram, and Uzal, and Diklah, 28 And Obal, and Abimael,
and Sheba, 29 And Ophir, and Havilah, and Jobab: all these were the sons
of Joktan.30 And their dwelling/territory was from Mesha, as thou goest
unto Sephar a mount of the east.
The location territory is very important as we examine it! Joktan was
pushing Eastward and opposite from Peleg and into what we call the Orient
today, his brother. Peleg was pushing toward the Western part which was a
Jewish state in that area. Because of the Scripture, the events that lead to
the brothers dividing. There (Joktan’s Line) dwelt in Mesha and as they
went to Sephar/Saphar. This area is possibly near the support Mouza at
the mouth of the Tigris River location, with Mount Sephar/Saphar being a
reference to Zaphar or Defari on the coast of the Hadramon. This would
trace the migrations to what is now modern-day Iran. During this territory of
where the Arabic culture came from. Another slight argument as to why the
Orientals came from Joktan is because, scientifically, we look at the
migrations of genetics, we can do a simple Google search and reveal
several professional societies, who research the traces of our ancestry.
They try to go back to Africa where they try and proclaim a modern-day
Lucy or the first human origin of life. The migration arrows are few. Most of
the migration’s arrows have originated from ancient Babel, all the way to
China! They can’t’ deny this fact. Knowing that Babel was the heart and the
center of migration! This just proves the Bible Scriptures! The unbelievers
don’t want to accept the love of the truth of God and Scripture and would
rather give all of humanity the lie! When we look at the migration arrows,
start from Babel, go upward to Siberia, and China, another arrow that goes
from Iraq, Iranian region, to China and to Korea. Koreans came from either
Siberians or a lower part of the Arabic culture, to India, to China and to
Korea. Siberia is where Shamanism was born! Korea carried on the
Siberian culture for a millennia! Korean Buddhism was introduced and is
unique different from Indian Buddhism and other cultures, why? Because
Koreans intermingled Shamanism with Buddhism. Korean Christianity
today, is based off Shamanism and Buddhism! When we see religions
instituting speaking in tongues (Charismatic Pentecostal Doctrine) and
David Yonggi Cho, who sprouted this teaching, he adapted some things
and matched with Korean pagan culture with his doctrine. This is why his
followers of this doctrine spread, to become the world’s largest church!
David Yonggi Cho (Korean: 조용기; 14 February 1936 – 14 September 2021
as Paul Yungi Cho) was a South Korean Christian minister. He was the
founder of the Yoido Full Gospel Church (Assemblies of God), which he
started in a tent with 5 people (including his future mother-in-law Choi Ja-
shil and her children as its first members), which eventually became the
world's largest congregation, with a membership of 830,000 (as of 2007).
How does a false pastor, minister, Bishop, Pope, teacher, Laity have the
largest church in this world’s system of things? One must compromise and
intermingle with Satan and your culture at that time is pagan. Small
churches usually don’t compromise and intermingle with the Devil. How?
Why? 2 Corinthians 4:4 says, 4 For the god of this world, Satan has blinded
the unbelievers’ minds [that they should not discern the truth], preventing
them from seeing the illuminating light of the Gospel of the glory of Christ
(the Messiah), Who is the Image and Likeness of God. Amplified Bible,
Classic Edition (AMPC). Luke 4:5-7 says, 5 Then the devil took Him up to a
high mountain and showed Him all the kingdoms of the habitable world in a
moment of time [[c]in the twinkling of an eye]. 6 And he said to Him, To You I
will give all this power and authority and their glory (all their magnificence,
excellence, preeminence, dignity, and grace), for it has been turned over to
me, and I give it to whomever I will. 7 Therefore if You will do homage
to and worship me [[d]just once], it shall all be Yours. Amplified Bible,
Classic Edition (AMPC). Satan, since the beginning of mankind has
presented an invitation to those men and woman who would intermingle
and compromise their souls for all that was even offered to the Son of Man
throughout history! Now that we understand the history, it makes sense
concerning the Native American Indians. If we study about the genetic line,
we get some people from Mongolia, Korea, some parts of Japan, others
going up North, if there was not much water during these times, they could
have crossed into North America and into South America. This is how the
cultures came from, when migrating originally from Babel. Native
Americans, Asians, and then the Jews all share the same bloodline of
Shem. Jews today look like Caucasians because they were wanderers at
that time, residing and intermingling with the city and culture, they lived in
during that time. The Holocaust of Germany had a large Jewish population.
This idea of Ashkenazi Jews derived from Germany are from Japheth’s
lineage, etc.? When we look at the Hebrew, Genesis 10:30, a mount of the
East, and transliterate, this would be a mount of the Orient! This is where
Joktan’s line was pushing toward. Genesis 10:26-29, 26 And Joktan begot
Almodad and Sheleph, and Hazarmaveth and Jerah, 27 and Hadoram and
Uzal and Diklah, 28 and Obal and Abimael and Sheba, 29 and Ophir and
Havilah and Jobab; all these were the sons of Joktan. There is a general
agreement that all the sons of Joktan are Arabians! They settle in Arabia
proper and spill over into Ur of the Chaldeans, and Westside of the Persian
Gulf. They are the Yemen’s, some of them go as far as India! Ophir in the
Bible, from Solomon’s kingdom, it’s the famous place for gold which is
probably in India but scholars differ.
