3 | NOAH"S CURSED SON | Genesis | KBurgee | 772 | ||
The scripture in question here is Genesis 9:20-27, when Ham found Noah naked, and then Shem and Japeth proceeded to clothe him. I'm not sure - it seems that Noah was really upset at Ham, Caanan's father and his younger son, seeing him naked, while his brothers clothed him without looking at him (Gen 9:23). I think the question (if that's not it, then it'll be MY question, because I'm curious) is why Caanan was cursed to be a servant. Was it just beacuse his father saw Noah naked and the sins of the father must be repaid by the son? Am I looking at it too closely? | ||||||

". . . the sins of the father must be repaid by the son?" I'm not familiar with that one. Could you tell us the book, chapter and verse where the Bible says that? | ||||||
5 | sins of father repaid by son? | Genesis | Ric | 879 | ||
Exodus 20:5 You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the fathers to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me, 6 but showing love to a thousand generations of those who love me and keep my commandments. (NAS) "punishing the children for the sin of the fathers to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me" notice the words at the end of this read: "of those who hate me". The full formula includes the important qualifier "of those who hate me." |

Ric, The NASB says "...visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children..." and the context seems say that the sin of one generation is passed on to the next, by example, not as a sin debt owed to God for 4 generations. Indeed, for man left to his own devices, this does seem to be the case. However, Jesus came that we may break this cycle. Even sons of men who do not know God (hate Him), can be set free from the curse of sin. Better yet, our children can be even closer to God if we teach them that victory earlier than we knew it. Praise the Lord Jesus. |
