Genesis 10 - Shem and his descendants




Gen 10:21 Unto Shem also, the father of all the children of Eber, the brother of Japheth the elder, even to him were [children] born.

5 sons of Shem:

Elam

Jer 49:38 And I will set my throne in Elam, and will destroy from thence the king and the princes, saith the LORD.

Jer 49:39 But it shall come to pass in the latter days, [that] I will bring again the captivity of Elam, saith the LORD.


Lud
Aram

ASSHUR

Eze 32:22 Asshur [is] there and all her company: his graves [are] about him: all of them slain, fallen by the sword:

Hsa 14:3 Asshur shall not save us; we will not ride upon horses: neither will we say any more to the work of our hands, [Ye are] our gods: for in thee the fatherless findeth mercy.

Asshur- Assyria- son of Shem,
founded Ninevah, the city that repented
after Jonah was spit out of the big fish.

The sign of Jonah.

Arphaxad - of the Messianic Seed

ARPHAXAD - The Messianic lineage. Luke's
genealogy of Christ through Miryim, is true to the
Royal line of Judah's Kings and Founding Tribal
Fathers. Christ came from the line of Arphaxad,
son of Shem, son of Noah.


1Ch 1:18 And Arphaxad begat Shelah, and Shelah begat Eber.

1Ch 1:24 Shem, Arphaxad, Shelah,

Luk 3:36 Which was [the son] of Cainan, which was [the son] of Arphaxad, which was [the son] of Sem, which was [the son] of Noe, which was [the son] of Lamech,

Gen 10:22 The children of Shem; Elam, and Asshur, and Arphaxad, and Lud, and Aram.


Gen 10:23 And the children of Aram; Uz, and Hull, and Gether, and Mash.

Gen 10:24 And Arphaxad begat Salah; and Salah begat Eber.
Selah is also called "Cainan"...
Gen 10:25 And unto Eber were born two sons: the name of one
[was] Peleg;; for in his days was the earth divided; and
his brother's name [was] Joktan.

Gen 10:26 And Joktan begat Almodad, and Sheleph, and Hazarmaveth, and Jerah,

Gen 10:27 And Hadoram, and Uzal, and Diklah,

Gen 10:28 And Obal, and Abimael, and Sheba,

Gen 10:29 And Ophir, and Havilah, and Jobab:
all these [were] the sons of Joktan.

Gen 10:30 And their dwelling was from Mesha, as thou goest
unto Sephar a mount of the east.
Mesha- means "freedom"
Refers to a region marking the boundaries
of the Joktanites, the first settlers in Arabia.

This is the era when the Shemite tribes
most reflected brotherhood and kingdom
of Israel.

Gen 10:31 These [are] the sons of Shem, after their families, after their tongues, in their lands, after their nations.

Gen 10:32 These [are] the families of the sons of Noah, after their generations, in their nations: and by these were the nations divided in the earth after the flood.
