Bible Question: In Genesis 11:10 we have the beginnings of the geneaologies of the nations. The nations all have come from one of three sons of Noah. Does anyone have a good listing by which we can clearly see the nations today and which son of Noah they are from? |
Bible Answer: Thank you Nolan Keck. I am looking for something like a chart. I used to have a book on linguistics and the study of Hebrew that had some pie-charts showing, according to languages and ancient names, how the ancient names related to modern nations. I cannot find the book and I thought it would be great as an illustration for Bible Study when we cover Genesis 10-11 and the Tower of Babel. I know it gets very complicated but it helps in getting a little understanding of the real division of the races according to Noah's three sons and where their families migrated after the Tower of Babel incident. |
