GOD BLESSES NOAH
How did God bless (literally, “kneel before” or “bestow honor on”) Noah in Genesis 9 following the Flood?
Genesis 10
10:1-5: PROPHETIC SIGNIFICANCE OF THE DESCENDANTS OF NOACH’S SON YAFET
The descendants of Noach’s son Yafet (Japheth) show up prominently in Israel’s history, particularly regarding the period leading up to the Day of the LORD.
10:6-20: PROPHETIC SIGNIFICANCE OF THE DESCENDANTS OF NOACH’S SON HAM
Like with the names of the descendants of Noach’s son Yafet, those of his son Ham are testimonies of what God has done, is doing and will do to prepare for the coming of God’s Kingdom. That kingdom clashed with the first human kingdom, that of Nimrod.
10:1-20 — THE FIRST KINGDOM BRINGS ‘CHAOS’
Genesis 10 is more than just a list of names. It talks about the formation of the first kingdom and army on earth, formed with the purpose of “chaos” and “violence” as an affront to the LORD.
Genesis 11
GOD CONFOUNDS THE UNITED NATIONS OF NIMROD
Just as Nimrod tried to unite people into one nation whose evil inclinations are propelled by endless innovation, people will try to unite again. Just as God confounded Nimrod’s confederation, God will confound the Babylonian confederation again. This is one of the lessons of the book of Revelation.
THE WORLD FOR A BRIEF TIME HAS ONE MIND, SPEECH AND CULTURE
Genesis 11 starts with confusion and ends with the story of the family line which will bring the Messiah into the world and bring God’s order back to earth.
