6. GENESIS 10-11
We are nearing the end of the 1st. section of
our 2 part division of the book of Genesis
(chapters 1-11). We are in the post-diluvian
age of the world. After chapter 11 starts the
second division (chapters 12-50), from the
deluge to the call of Abram..
7. ADAM CLARKE'S COMMENTARY
Eusebius and others state (from what authority
we know not) that Noah was commanded of
God to make a will and bequeath the whole of
the earth to his three sons and their
descendants in the following manner:
To Shem, all the East;
To Ham, all Africa;
To Japheth, the Continent of Europe with its
isles, and the northern parts of Asia.

Ham and Japheth, Noah's sons, who
themselves had sons after the flood.

Acts 17:24-27 "The God who made the world and
everything in it is the Lord of heaven and earth and
does not live in temples built by hands. 25 And he is
not served by human hands, as if he needed
anything, because he himself gives all men life and
breath and everything else. 26 From one man he
made every nation of men, that they should inhabit
the whole earth; and he determined the times set for
them and the exact places where they should live.

entered into the world, and death through sin, and so
death spread to all men, because all sinned--

The adjunct "before the Lord" - literally, in the
presence of Yahweh-has been variously
interpreted. [The Septuagint adds Elohiym after
Yahweh. By one class it is taken in a bad sense,
as in the Septuagint [Enantion Kuriou], in the
face, in spite of, against Yahweh. This also is
the view of Josephus and the Jewish
Targumists, who unite in regarding Nimrod as
the originator of a systematic opposition to the
true God. By another class it is believed to bear
a good meaning….”

Nimrod = "rebellion" or "the valiant" 1) the son of
Cush, grandson of Ham, and great grandson of

22. GE.10:25, THE EARTH WAS DIVIDED
Gen 10:25
Two sons were born to Eber:
One was named Peleg, because in his time
the earth was divided; his brother was
named Joktan.
23. GE.10:25, THE EARTH WAS DIVIDED
Jamieson, Fausset, and Brown says, “The natural
view of these words implies a reference to a formal
division of the earth, which, as has been thought,
from several passages of Scripture (Deut 32:8; Acts
17:24-26), as well as from the probability of the thing
itself, was made by Noah, acting under divine
impulse, into three partitions, one of which was
appropriated to each of his three sons. According to
the Hebrew chronology, this authoritative distribution
took place about a century after the deluge, most
probably at the birth of Peleg, and his name was a
memorial of that event. Other interpretations have
been given of this passage. Some, rendering the
words, 'the earth was cut into canals'….
24. GE.10:25, THE EARTH WAS DIVIDED
…Hebrew verb to cleave, to divide water-courses' (Job
38:25), says Cyril Graham, 'refers rather to a mechanical
division of land, such as plowing or cutting, than to a
political division. We have no doubt that this notice, short
as it is, is a record of the first cutting of some of those
canals which are found in such numbers between the
Tigris and the Euphrates…
Others are of opinion that extensive landslips occurred-
the sea bursting through many parts of the solid land and
forming straits and gulfs, or separating continents, and
that it was to such breaches 'the dividing of the earth'
refers.
A third class suppose that the allusion is not to the
general dispersion of Noah's descendants, but to a
division in Eber's family-the Joktanidoe….
28. GML COMPASS, NEVER RAINED PRE-FLOOD?
You come to that conclusion by comparing Genesis 2:5-6
…to Genesis 7:4…
God had not sent rain upon the earth . . . But a mist used to
rise from the earth and water the whole surface of the
ground. —Genesis 2:5-6 I will send . . . rain on the earth
forty days and forty nights; —Genesis 7:4
There is an interesting theory that the weather problems
today may have stemmed from the atmospheric changes
due to the mountains that formed as the continents
separated—either during or just after the flood. This theory
assumes that the animals on the earth were all from one
piece of land for Noah to take on the ark…
29. GML COMPASS, NEVER RAINED PRE-FLOOD?
... There is some scientific evidence (that doesn't refute
biblical teaching) that the seven major land masses were
previously one large piece of land. Also, since the water
God sent came from above AND below, there was
apparently some kind of vapor canopy surrounding the
earth. This water canopy fell, causing the flood, along with
the water from the great deep (Genesis 7:11).
Since people lived much longer in those days, the vapor
canopy protection from the sun could have contributed to
this long life…
31. GEN 10:32, LOCAL FLOOD?
Gen 10:32 These are the clans of Noah's sons,
according to their lines of descent, within their
nations. From these the nations spread out over the
earth after the flood.
If their were other “lines of descent, within their
nations” that didn’t get off Noah’s barge, wouldn’t
God have an obligation to mention them here?
If Noah’s flood was a local flood, was God ignorant of
them, or their “lines of descent,” or is He avoiding
mention of all the others who survived the local flood,
or is He being deceptive? Cause it sure sounds like
“From these the nations spread out over the earth
after the flood.”
32. GEN 11:1-4
Gen 11:1-9 Now the whole world had one
language and a common speech. 2 As men
moved eastward, they found a plain in Shinar
and settled there.
3 They said to each other, "Come, let's make
bricks and bake them thoroughly." They used
brick instead of stone, and tar for mortar. 4 Then
they said, "Come, let us build ourselves a city,
with a tower that reaches to the heavens, so
that we may make a name for ourselves and not
be scattered over the face of the whole earth."
34. ARCHEOLOGY
German archaeologist Robert Koldewey in
1899… dug on the Babel site for some
fourteen years and unearthed many of its
features including the outer walls, inner
walls, foundation of the Tower of Babel,
Nebuchadnezzar's palaces and the wide
processional roadway which passed through
the heart of the city.
35. DAN 3:19, SEVEN TIMES HOTTER
C. Missler says, “Furnace: N. Iraq: brick
furnaces, size of city block; pitch, sulfur; +
bellows.”
Archeological S.B says, “One kiln discovered at
Nippur (from approx. 2000 B.C.) is fashioned
like a railway tunnel, with one end blocked and
the other serving as an entrance…punishment
by burning is well attested in the ancient Near
East”

37. BABEL= CONFUSION
OT:894, Babel (baw-bel'); from OT:1101;
confusion; Babel (i.e. Babylon), including
Babylonia and the Babylonian empire:
KJV - Babel, Babylon.
38. GEN 11:5-9
5 But the Lord came down to see the city and
the tower that the men were building. 6 The Lord
said, "If as one people speaking the same
language they have begun to do this, then
nothing they plan to do will be impossible for
them. 7 Come, let us go down and confuse their
language so they will not understand each
other."
8 So the Lord scattered them from there over all
the earth, and they stopped building the city.
9 That is why it was called Babel — because
there the Lord confused the language of the
whole world. From there the Lord scattered them
over the face of the whole earth.
41. GENESIS 11:7, TONGUES
Geneva Notes says, “By this great plague of
the confusion of tongues appears God's
horrible judgment against man's pride and
vain glory.”
42. GENESIS 11:7, TONGUES
Ps 64:7-8 But God will shoot them with
arrows; suddenly they will be struck down.
8 He will turn their own tongues against them
and bring them to ruin; all who see them will
shake their heads in scorn.
Isa 28:11 Very well then, with foreign lips
and strange tongues God will speak to this
people,
Paul quotes this in;
43. GENESIS 11:7, TONGUES
1 Cor 14:19-25 But in the church I would rather speak
five intelligible words to instruct others than ten thousand
words in a tongue. 20 Brothers, stop thinking like
children. In regard to evil be infants, but in your thinking
be adults. 21 In the Law it is written:
"Through men of strange tongues and through the lips of
foreigners I will speak to this people, but even then they
will not listen to me," says the Lord. 22 Tongues, then,
are a sign, not for believers but for unbelievers; prophecy,
however, is for believers, not for unbelievers. 23 So if the
whole church comes together and everyone speaks in
tongues, and some who do not understand or some
unbelievers come in, will they not say that you are out of
your mind? 24 But if an unbeliever or someone who does
not understand comes in while everybody is prophesying,
he will be convinced by all that he is a sinner and will be
judged by all,
44. GEN 5:3-32, ADAM TO SHEM
Gen 5:3-5 When Adam had lived 130 years, he
had a son in his own likeness, in his own image;
and he named him Seth. 4 After Seth was born,
Adam lived 800 years and had other sons and
daughters. 5 Altogether, Adam lived 930 years,
and then he died.

27 This is the account of Terah.
Terah became the father of Abram, Nahor and Haran. And
Haran became the father of Lot. 28 While his father Terah
was still alive, Haran died in Ur of the Chaldeans, in the
land of his birth. 29 Abram and Nahor both married. The
name of Abram's wife was Sarai, and the name of Nahor's
wife was Milcah; she was the daughter of Haran, the
father of both Milcah and Iscah. 30 Now Sarai was
barren; she had no children.
31 Terah took his son Abram, his grandson Lot son of
Haran, and his daughter-in-law Sarai, the wife of his son
Abram, and together they set out from Ur of the
Chaldeans to go to Canaan. But when they came to
Haran, they settled there.
32 Terah lived 205 years, and he died in Haran.
53. FLOOD STORIES IN EVERY REGION ON EARTH
“Native global flood stories are documented as history or
legend in almost every region on earth. Old world
missionaries reported their amazement at finding remote
tribes already possessing legends with tremendous
similarities to the Bible's accounts of the worldwide flood.
H.S. Bellamy in Moons, Myths and Men estimates that
altogether there are over 500 Flood legends worldwide.
Ancient civilizations such as (China, Babylonia, Wales,
Russia, India, America, Hawaii, Scandinavia, Sumatra,
Peru, and Polynesia) all have their own versions of a
giant flood.
These flood tales are frequently linked by common
elements that parallel the Biblical account…”

How did we get all of the different races on earth if we are all descended
from Adam and Noah and his family?
Today's differing racial and cultural characteristics began at the
separation of the world's population into different groups based upon
language. This followed the affair at the Tower of Babel. Before this
separation, the one population shared the genetic traits of all humanity.
In other words, they had a common gene pool. After the separation into
groups, each group contained only a part of the former gene pool. This
means that each group had lost some of the genetic information. As one

Babylon lies 90 Kilometers south of Baghdad, and 10 Kilometers north
of Hilla the road to Babylon branches of the main Baghdad-Hilla
highway. Heavy traffic flows on a four-lane road, which becomes two
lanes without any slowing of traffic speeds. Terraces and green gardens
flourish behind walls, palm fronds sticking up like plants growing in giant,
square pots. Army posts frequently block roads, always with armed
soldiers halting traffic for inspections
