9 Feb - Genesis 10

This chapter goes through the lineage of Noah’s sons.

1. Japheth’s descendants were sailors and mastered traveling the waters.
2. Ham’s descendants were great warriors but we’ll see later that from Ham was born the future enemies of people who follow God.
3. Shem had many descendants as well and from these people Jesus was eventually born.

From Noah and his sons the whole earth was repopulated. Sounds crazy to us today because we’re so far from that. The interesting thing is if we keep these people in mind and see how they and their descendants play into the rest of the story.
