MEDITATION

Genesis 10:1-5

1 Now this is the genealogy of the sons of Noah: Shem, Ham, and Japheth. And sons were born to them after the flood.
2 The sons of Japheth were Gomer, Magog, Madai, Javan, Tubal, Meshech, and Tiras.
3 The sons of Gomer were Ashkenaz, Riphath, and Togarmah.
4 The sons of Javan were Elishah, Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim.
5 From these the coastland peoples of the Gentiles were separated into their lands, everyone according to his language, according to their families, into their nations.

1. Genealogy of the sons of Noah

a. The Lord had promised to bless.
b. They were fruitful and multiplying.

2. Generations noted

a. Noah
b. Japheth (Sons were Gomer, Magog, Madai, Javan, Tubal, Meshech, and Tiras)

3. The line of Japheth was briefly noted (Genesis 10:2-5)

4. The idea of “the Gentiles”

The sons of Noah became distinctive groups of people. The results of blessing from the Lord led to successful repopulation of the earth.

2雅弗的儿子是歌篾、玛各、玛代、雅完、土巴、米设、提拉。
3歌篾的儿子是亚实基拿、利法、陀迦玛。
4雅完的儿子是以利沙、他施、基提、多单。

5这些人的后裔，将各国的地土、海岛分开居住，各随各的方言、宗族立国。
