The Three Sons Of Noah, of Japheth, of Ham
The sons of Noah, of Japheth, of Ham.
This chapter shows concerning the three sons of Noah, that of them was the whole earth overspread. No nation but that of the Jews can be sure from which of these seventy it has come. The lists of names of fathers and sons were preserved of the Jews alone, for the sake of the Messiah. Many learned men, however, have, with some probability, shown which of the nations of the earth descended from each of the sons of Noah To the posterity of Japheth were allotted the isles of the gentiles; probably, the island of Britain among the rest. All places beyond the sea fr
om Judea are called isles, Jer 25:22 (22.And all the kings of Tyrus, and all the kings of Zidon, and the kings of the isles which are beyond the sea,)
. That promise, Isa 42:4 (4He shall not fail nor be discouraged, till he have set judgment in the earth: and the isles shall wait for his law.)
, The isles shall wait for his law, speaks of the conversion of the gentiles to the faith of Christ. (Ge 10:8-14)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.
11.Out of that land went forth Asshur, and builded Nineveh, and the city Rehoboth, and Calah,
12.And Resen between Nineveh and Calah: the same is a great city.
13.And Mizraim begat Ludim, and Anamim, and Lehabim, and Naphtuhim,
14.And Pathrusim, and Casluhim, (out of whom came Philistim,) and Caphtorim.

And we that call ourselves Christians, our calling as Sheepdogs is nigh. Now is not the time to shrink in the face of death. It is time to take His Sword to defend His Kingdom against false prophets and murderous thieves.
And HIS Sword Is the Word Of God.
Ephesians 6:17 (King James Version)
17.And take the helmet of
salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
