2a. Japheth has seven sons.
1) Gomer- They become the Indo-European nations.
One of the sons of Gomer is Ashkenaz and they are Jewish.
Ashkenazic Jews are the Jews of France, Germany, and Eastern Europe and

speaking people of Asia Minor and Central Asia
In Ezekiel 38: 1-6 Gog is the leader and Magog is Russia. Rosh, Meshech and Tubal
are a reference to Russia, Moscow and Tobolsh in Siberia.
2c. The sons of Javan
Javan- These are the Greeks and Ionians
Elishah- refers to Cilicia and Sardinia
Tarshish- used several times in the Old Testament
Jonah fled to Tarshish
They along with a alliance of Sheba and Didan are questioning the invasion
of Gog, Magog and their alliance. Sheba and Didan are present day; Saudia Arabia, Yemen,
Oman and the Gulf States.
Kittim- is the capital of Cyprus and refers to the Greek culture.
3. The PEOPLE who descended from Ham.
Vs. 6-20
1) Cush- refers to Ethiopia
2) Nimrod
We see that Nimrod is separated from the other sons.
Nimrod’s name appears all over the Mesopotamian Valley. There are still 24
ziggurats or towers that remain in this area today. One of them is attributed to
Nimrod.
3) Mizraim - This is Egypt

2) Asshur- the ancestors of the Assyrian Empire
3) Arphaxad
He becomes very important because we will see that it is through his line that the
Messiah will come. He is the ancestor of Abraham.
Eber means to cross over the river. It is the foundation of the word ,
“Hebrew” Josh 24:2-3, Josh 24:14-15
4) Lud- He is associated with Persia and Put
5) Aram- the father of the Aramaeans or the Syrians
Matt 1:1, Luke 3:23, Luke 3:35-36
Why did God divide all mankind in this way? The answer is in Acts 17:24-31
