The ONLY other person I've heard explain it like this is a Rabbi. Context is EVERYTHING. To have the proper context, you must understand the culture to whom The Word was first given and not look at it purely through the lens of Western understanding.

When David son Amnon raped his half sister Tamar, there were no codes used. The writings were plain. Why wouldnt the story be written the same for Ham and Noah?...

If Ham raped, then why did he tell his two brothers? Verse 23 then speaks of the exact same nakedness being reversed by a physical garment. So a garment reverses rape? Illogical!

One thing that is being ignored here: Ham was not cursed! Ham son Canaan was. Why? Because prior to Ham’s sin, God blessed Noah and his sons; you cannot curse what God has blessed!

You may have gone down the wrong rabbit hole. There are so many things wrong with your analysis that I can't begin to list them. But the most logical thing you fail to consider is time element: The Bible says Noah "began to be a farmer" and he planted a vineyard. So stop there -- How long after leaving the ark did Noah decide to "become" a farmer and plant a vineyard -- one year, two, 10, 15...? Then, also how long after that would it take for the vineyard to produce grapes... one year... two years? I bring this up because you mentioned there were "only 8 persons saved on the ark" -- which is true, but wouldn't it be logical that Noah's sons and their wives began to have children after leaving the ark -- which means by the time of Noah's unfortunate incident there were more than three males on the earth? Another thing you forget to consider is that in the Bible grandsons were often referred to as "sons." Genesis 10:6 states the sons of Ham were Cush, Mizriam, Put, and Canaan -- so Canaan would be Ham's youngest son and thus Noah's "youngest son." So when Noah awoke and realized what his "younger son" (or grandson) had done is more likely referring to his grandson Canaan -- the son of Ham. Logical sequence of events -- so when Ham happened to walk into his father's tent and saw his father naked, he went and got his brothers, so that the two of them could cover their father's nakedness. They walked backwards and Ham may have "guided them" -- otherwise they would have seen Noah naked also. Another thing you failed to consider is that Genesis 9:18 names Noah's sons, and Genesis 9:19 states: "THESE THREE" were the sons of Noah, and "FROM THESE" the whole earth was populated. Then, one of the most profound statement that you seem to overlook is that "God cursed Canaan." Does it make sense to you that God would curse Canaan for something Ham did and not mention Ham at all? You've made this into an unnecessary soap opera -- when it didn't have to be. If there was some untoward deed such as Ham raping his own mother and having a child, the Bible would have told the story -- just as it did all of the other sordid tales -- Lot's daughters raping him and bearing sons; the men of Sodom trying to rape the two angels that came into Lot's house; Reuben raping his father's concubine; Judah thinking Tamar was a prostitute; David and Bathsheba and what he did to Uriah the Hittite; David's son Amnon raping his sister Tamar... the Bible will tell us what happened, we don't need made up stories... Selah

Jeremiah 29:13 You will seek Me and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart. ... Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and the door ... I was blessed today to find your video! Amazing how you tided it together... Praise the Lord!!! Thank you very much for your time , love, and sharing! Many blessing!!!❤

100%‼️ AND Absolam usurped David’s throne and had sex with his fathers concubines! The first son…in a power struggle? Ham, Rueben and Absolam in a power struggle? Is this what it is all about in the end. Usurping the father’s authority? I love this. Please keep it coming.

I was suspect that Ham gave Noah the bacon 25yrs ago and then 10yrs ago heard a similar teaching putting my mind to rest. Your teaching is much more detailed and you have a new subscriber. 👍

I wondered about this and thought there had to be more facts to the incident. This is amazing. We, as believers in the scriptures, need to quit looking at the Bible in a fairytale like manner and start looking at it as real events, which happened in history and encompasses a much larger message. The information contained is not just random information. It is a guidebook for us to find our Heavenly Father through is Son, our Redeemer.

I don't think this story is about incest, it's about dishonoring father and mother, which is also a capital sin. Western culture puts no emphasis on dishonoring a part but God says it's extreme ly serious. Ham made fun of his father when he talked to his brothers,he dishonoured him and shamed him. Noah knew God's laws and knew how God would react and simply prophesied to that fact.

And Noah began to be a farmer, and he planted a vineyard. 21Then he drank of the wine and was drunk, and became uncovered in his tent. 22And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brothers outside. (NKJV) In this text we discover: 1) Noah became a farmer. 2) Noah planted a vineyard. 3) Noah drank of the wine. 4) Noah got drunk. 5) Noah got naked. Then in v. 22, we read that Ham saw his father’s nakedness. If this is to be taken as Ham raping his mother, why all the detail of Noah getting drunk and naked? All of that could have been skipped for it would have had nothing to do with Ham’s offense. Furthermore, if uncovering the nakedness of one’s father is “code” for having sex with one’s father’s wife, how come it is written that Noah’s other two sons put a garment on their shoulders and walked backward into Noah’s tent so as not to see their father’s nakedness? Are we to interpret that as meaning that Shem and Japheth walked into their father’s tent backwards so that they would not commit incest with their mother? And, given the nature of the crime of incest, it is doubtful that Ham would have told his brothers about it. Also note that when Noah sobered up, he realized what his son had done to him. Ham did something and he did it to Noah, not Noah’s wife. Ham was likely a sexual deviant of some sort. He DID something to Noah. He did not accidently walk into Noah’s tent. It is also important to note that once Noah sobered up and realized what his son had done to him, he issued the blessings/curses. Your insistence that this was an end-of-life blessing is without Scriptural foundation. Yes, other blessings were recorded as end-of-life blessings, but we cannot force that pattern on all of them. Noah’s words are recorded as though they were spoken shortly after he sobered up and realized what had happened but sometime after Canaan had been born, for how could he have known of Canaan’s existence had he not already been born? If Canaan were the offspring of Ham and his mother, Noah’s words would have needed to be spoken at least nine months after the events in Noah’s tent, and if they were, indeed, an end-of-life blessing, that would have needed to be near the end of his life, unless you want to assume that Noah never did or said anything about his son’s horrible conduct until many years after it happened. But the record does not support that. The more plausible explanation is that Noah cursed his son, Ham, in the name of the name of the son of Ham that Noah foresaw would most fully express the sexually perverse nature of Ham. After all, Sodom and Gomorrah were Canaanite cities! In fact, it could be that the events in the tent were far enough after the flood that Canaan had already been born and had shown his perverse tendencies. I have read that it was a known practice to curse someone in the name of one of their sons. And this make sense for it seems that Canaan’s brothers and Japheth and Shem are one and the same. It might be argued that this would support the idea of incest. However, in chapter 10, the sons of Noah are listed as Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Canaan is not listed as Noah's son; he is listed as Ham’s son. So, it is not as though whatever happened in the tent caused Ham to be written out of the lineage. Rather, in the blessings/curses, Noah refers to his son, Ham, by the name of the son of Ham who would prove to be most like Ham. And it is not surprising that the Scriptures would belabor the point that Ham was the father of Canaan, for it was the descendants of Canaan who had occupied the land that God would later give to the descendants of Shem through Abraham. Since Moses wrote this as the Israelites were in the wilderness, he was simply making it obvious that the Israelites were going to dispossess the descendants of a specifically cursed people. As to the nakedness of one’s father’s wife being equated with the nakedness of one’s father, it is important to read a larger portion: Leviticus 18: “7The nakedness of your father or the nakedness of your mother you shall not uncover. She is your mother; you shall not uncover her nakedness. 8The nakedness of your father’s wife you shall not uncover; it is your father’s nakedness.” Note that specific mention is made of one’s mother separately from one’s father’s wife. Also, the nakedness of one’s mother is not called the nakedness of the father, but is mentioned distinctly - she has her own nakedness, so to speak. So, Leviticus 18.7 refers to “biological parental incest” while 18.8 refers only to a sort of “legal parental incest,” for the woman involved is not related to the offender in any but a legal sense. It should also be noted that to uncover a person’s nakedness did not merely mean to take the clothes off of someone. Later in Leviticus 18, uncovering the nakedness of one’s granddaughter is prohibited. Does this mean that a man would be prohibited from changing a granddaughter’s diaper? No, it is rather clear that uncovering someone’s nakedness (or purposefully looking in on a person’s accidental nakedness) included the idea of sexual purpose. So, the meaning of the passage in Genesis 9 is most likely that Ham purposefully looked at his father’s nakedness with perverse pleasure (and maybe did more since it would appear that Noah was not just drunk, but passed-out drunk) and when Noah sobered up and realized what Ham had done to him, he issued the blessings/curses found in Genesis 9, cursing his son, Ham using the name of the son of Ham who would express the greatest tendency to Ham’s perverse nature.

This assumes Noah knew his wife was not just pregnant from the rape, but knows the name of said child as well.

To uncover your father's nakedness simply means to lay with his wife. That should be plain and clear enough.

I like how you illustrated how something bad happened to all of the first born sons in the book of Genesis.

Wow I really appreciate and enenjoyed this studying of the Bible. I'm looking forward to hearing more 😊😊😊😊

You have guts for using scripture to interpret scripture! I am set on a course to discern and detect false and timid Christian teachers, by searching out their teachings on the most controversial portions of scripture, and let the truth fall where the Holy Spirit dictates and confirms truth through prayer. I believed your interpretation of the curse of Canaan before I heard it from your channel. Thank you for the second witness.

I have never had a Bible study this way. I love how you interconnected the story.

I'm very skeptical about some " new" interpretations of the Bible,but this one is amazing, logical,and makes perfect sense...and answer many questions who i have myself and have been asked about the story of Noah..Thank you!!!

As is written Leviticus,it clearly says that a son / daughter should not look on your father or on your mothers nakedness,but Ham told his brothers to come and look at their father's nakedness in other words he made a fool of his father which he took as a joke,it says nothing about raping their mother ,and it was Noah that cursed Ham for making fun out of him being naked. God did not curse Ham , but he allowed it .

I've heard this before from a trusted Bible teacher who knows and studies Hebrew but without the detailed explanation, I didn't know how he came to that conclusion. It's clear to me now after getting the details as you provided. It totally makes sense and thank you very much!!!

It says exactly what happened he disrespected his father by making fun of him being drunk and naked. Then gossips to his brothers instead of covering up his father and loving him enough not too slander him. Like the New Testament says: love covers a multitude of sins. But Ham didn't do that he disrespected his father.

Mind blowing to me! I've had many questions about this passage of Noah being uncovered. The connections are unreal but SO like God. I've listened to this video about 3 times now. TY so much for putting it out here for our benefit.

Using scripture to interpret scripture. Quite interesting. I'll have to replay this again (and again) to get a complete grasp of it. Thanks for your time delivering this.

Wowwwww thank you so much for this video. You took the time and I understand the Bible so much better ❤❤❤

I love these deep Genesis studies. Thanks. Thumbs up

An amazing connection. God always has a plan for everything that happens, when it happens and where it happens. God bless 🙌

LEVITICUS 18:8 “The nakedness of thy father's wife shalt thou not uncover: it is thy father's nakedness.” LEVITICUS 20:11 “And the man that lieth with his father's wife hath uncovered his father's nakedness: both of them shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.”

“Comparing Lot’s daughters with Ham” is excellent biblical research. We read scripture and notice these reoccurring themes like the slaying of children 2 years old and under in both old and New Testament, and don’t always stop to make the connection. But blessed is the one that does! The “uncover his nakedness” in Leviticus 18 is a bombshell! But that’s because I never read (studied )Leviticus. I will now! All scripture counts and is interconnected with all other scripture. Old and New Testament! There is no “small talk”, no filler, no chit chat, in the Bible! Every line has dunamis power.

It's also possible that the major infraction was not viewing his father naked, but telling his brothers about it and thus publicly humiliating his father. Noah found out what had happened while he was passed out presumably because his other sons told him. He knew that every single person on the planet now knew that he got drunk and passed out naked. We even know about it today, thousands of years later. I don't like extrapolating unknowns in the Bible by use of patterns. Patterns do exist in the Bible, but not everything fits into one or fits the way we think it fits. There's no harm in not trying to figure out everything that's not explicitly stated in the Bible. Some things that aren't stated just aren't that important. I think the story is very straight forward in light of the presumed patriarchal culture of the time. Remember in Leviticus, striking or cursing your parent was punishable by death. If your father spit in your face, you would be disgraced for 7 days. Presumably raping a parent (much worse than just striking one) would also be punishable by death.

That is amazing that you did a study on that, I would of never thought of Ham rapping his mother. You make a pretty good detective . Thank you for that knowledge.

I am sorry that your getting so much slack for all your hard work and dedication ! It sounds very logical to me ! God thinks totaly different than us , he know the beginig to the end . Some people cant decipher as deeply as you .I can tell you know your Bible well ! Your parents must be proud 😊 People say dont talk to openly about politics or religions your bound to find aggression! Good luck and God bless !

Your meticulously intricate study is so exhaustive my intellect is spinning..... really good study.

im praying for you brother may the spirit reveal the truth to you

If this is true why did they cover their father and not their mother?

You put so much time in studying for your topics and I appreciate how you brilliantly connect the dots from the book of the beginning GENESIS. Well done

I just happened upon this video today, and I'll just say...mind blown!! Thank you for letting the Bible interpret the Bible. I'm so glad I found this video today!!

Wow your explanation sounds so accurate

If Ham did rape Noah’s wife, why did his brothers Shem and Japheth walk in backwards , covered him and walked out, wouldn’t it have been the wife that was there when Ham ‘did’ this ?

Haven’t heard anyone explain so thoroughly and mix Western logic with Eastern storytelling and thought. We’ll done! I will be watching more of your materials.

How did Shem and Japheth not see the nakedness of their father SIMPLY by turning their heads away? Doesn't seem consistent with Ham seeing his father's nakedness being interpreted as sleeping with his mother.

Wow this is review was well done. Thanks for sharing! To the readers, Lets not forget that HAM also had 3 other sons in addition to Canaan. They are Put (Libya), Mizzriam (Egypt), and Cush (Sudan). Which also represents dark skin people of mainland Africa. This curse was not upon those lands (3) but only on Canaan (Israel). Very important to note. Also, equally important to note, lets not forget that the European colonizers of the 16th century used this biblical "curse of Ham" to justify the Atlantic slave trade and so did the Confederates of the South in USA prior to the Civil War (1861 -1865). Grounds which some use to this day to justify so called inferiority of dark skin, and colored people. Which is simply a fallacy. African people, The Holy Bible is not disconnected from our historical heritage. We are beautiful, intellectual and highly loved by our Lord God. AMEN. So he arose and went. And behold, a man of Ethiopia, a eunuch of great authority under Candace the queen of the Ethiopians, who had charge of all her treasury, and had come to Jerusalem to worship, Acts 8:27

Wow! I’m new to bible study, been following several teachers online and so grateful I’ve been led here. Thank you!

But in EZEKIEL 33 , it’s declared that “The sin of the father not fall in the son …” ( if a son dies what is righteous & upright in the LORD ). Each soul would be “ judged according to their works “ … (according to what each individual decides to do on their own ). No matter what anyone’s parent(s) has done , every soul will be judged according to what they individually decide how they will conduct their own self .

Thank you ,God is great ,I was praying for this (genesis 9:22) answer and I received it. Praise God 🙏🙏.

How does this bring ppl closer to Christ & salvation or God.... it does not go into detail for a reason. You are adding to the words in Scripture. Just leave it at the words written in Scripture. Read it as it is written in Leviticus 18:7-17

UNCOVER is different from "SAW" In Lev. 18:8 compare to Genesis 9:22 . Ham did not uncover Noah's wife, but Ham SAW the nakedness of his father. It is more difficult if that's the interpretation of the verse.

it amazing how the Bible interprets itself that the righteous may not fall into error in His walk with God

The Bible doesn’t hold back in detailing the sexual transgressions that occur in the stories. I don’t see why the Bible would detail the other sins but have the story of Moses/Ham as a vague conjecture.

We have to also remember that Noah and his wife were no more twain but one flesh. So when the text says “and knew what his younger son had done to HIM”, I think we have to consider the fact that the “HIM” has to include Noah’s wife. Gen. 5:2 comes to mind but I want get into that.

Wow this is deep teaching. Worth a listen if you wantbseep understanding about this passage. The wird of Gid is incredible

- Ham, slept with his own mother, who was also drunken along with Noah and Caanan was the resulting of this and so in the why of Noah's judgement towards /-

If Ham seeing the nakedness of his father means that he raped his mother, why did Japheth and Shem walk backwards to cover Noah with a blanket? You have too much emphasis on what you see as repeated patterns, and not enough consideration of the plain reading of the text. He "saw" the "nakedness" of his father and told others about it. Might just mean he saw the nakedness of his father and told others (instead of helping his father by covering him).His brothers then covered Noah respectfully as a servant would do. Because Ham didn't help his father in his time of need, Canaan, likely Ham's firstborn and favorite, was cursed to be the servant that his father refused to be instead of the family ruler Ham would have prepped him to be. Canaan may also have had the same haughty nature as his father. Shem and Japheth are said to be brothers. They likely were brothers as in that they got along and worked together- both of them worked together to cover Noah, so they must have had the same attitude. Genesis 9:22 calls Shem and Japheth the 2 brothers of Ham. The evidence is not there that he was disowned, and the idea that Ham raped his mother and was disowned is not reqiuired by the text and also adds nothing to the text. Ham had no compassion and did not help his father in need, and so Canaan was cursed to be the servant of "his brethren". The phrase "his brethren" in verse 25 is referring to Ham in verse 24, not saying that Canaan was brother to Shem and Japheth. The two verses are saying that Canaan will be a servant to Ham's brethren who are Shem and Japheth.

You missed a key part of biblical truth. "A curse without a cause cannot come". You have also either missed and/or discounted the idea that Noah came out of the ark, became a husband man, planted a vineyard, harvested, aged said wine in order to become drunk from it and consumed said wine. All of these, obviously, took TIME. The order to be fruitful had already been given. It is quite possible that Canaan was already born and was of some age when Noah curses him. Ham is not cursed. Noah's wife nor a rape is either named nor mentioned in the passage and cursing the innocent would violate biblical principle. So, your interpretation has some large holes in it. It speculates and ignores some key elements of scripture.

You keep saying that she was Ham’s mother. Scripture doesn’t say this. Only that she was Noah’s wife. Could just as easily been Ham’s stepmother.

LOVE your style, logic and LOVE for GOD !!! One of the Best Channels I've ever seen .. Just stumbled onto you today. I've looked the all your titles and I WILL get around to viewing them ALL but do you have a website we can reach out to you there on ?? No PM on KZfaq ??? 😢 In any event, GOD BLESS 🙏🙏🙏 and thank you ☺

Interesting take... Need to chew on it awhile though...

Wow. This is very enlightening! Thank you for sharing.

The curse of the firstborn: All of this is a reminder of our Lord Jesus Christ the firstborn of creation; Colossians 1:15-19 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation. For by him all things were created … He is before all things, and in him all things hold together.Mar 6, 2023 being a curse for us! If you wonder about this video! However, Paul offers a clarifying interpretation in Galatians 3:13: “Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us, for it is written: 'Cursed is everyone who is hung on a pole. '” Here Paul teaches us to read the Old Testament through the lens of Jesus' cross and resurrection. Happy studying great explanation! Blessings to all

While I had a little trouble getting my head around it, I did get the basic essence.I thank you so much.God bless.Australia

Thank you so very much for finally understanding this which had me perplexed for many years! Thank you that G-D has made it super easy for you to explain it to me!!!! Please keep up the great work!!!

The language of "nakedness" is found elsewhere in the Bible. Leviticus 18: 16-17 "Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy brother's wife: it is thy brother's nakedness. [17] Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of a woman and her daughter, neither shalt thou take her son's daughter, or her daughter's daughter, to uncover her nakedness; for they are her near kinswomen: it is wickedness." If Ham saw "his father's nakedness" that's not referring to Noah, it's referring to his wife. That's why Ham's brothers backed in without looking. They were trying to avoid looking at their fathers wife (who's NOT necessarily their mom). Seeing this nakedness most likely means Ham had sex with her while his father was drunk. This was also most likely a way to belittle Noah and take over as leader. It would make sense that she got pregnant and the baby was Canaan, hence the curse.

Wow sounds like a tremendous overreach. A simple reading can be read as a old man awaking from a drunken stupor who is mad because his son saw him naked and was making fun and gossiping about him. Anyone whose has ever been around an old grumpy wineo should know.

Wow, you are the first person I ever heard explain why Noah curse ham I saw this way back in 1989 and try to share it with people even pastors and Christian friends and they always shot me down. Thanks.

Fascinating! GOD knows the end from the beginning!!! He is truly ALMIGHTY and AWESOME!!!

I don' t accept this "theory," as you so aptly call it, about what happenned to Noah in his tent. The scripture clearly says that he became drunk and was NAKED, in his tent. Ham saw his nakedness and told his brothers. His brothers walked backward with a garment and Covered THE NAKENESS OF THEIR FATHER. That is clear as day. What you are saying is pure speculation. There is no mention of his wife even being in Noah's tent at that time, let alone being raped. I will stick to the plain reading of the scripture and not rank speculation, because that's just what this is. You're reading into the scripture what is not there.

I came to a very similar conclusion about this passage years ago, but everybody I shared my idea with said I was looking too deep into it. They said there isn't enough information to reach such a conclusion. While I admit that the theory isn't explicitly found in the text, I still think there's enough information to support the theory. I don't know if the "firstborn curse" and the genetic lineages have anything directly to do with it, though. Those seem to be incidentally related at best.

This is a beautiful exegesis ! Well done 👍✅! To God be the glory 🙏. I learnt something Today concerning the interpretation of Noah's nakedness! God bless you!

I had come to this same conclusion years ago and congratulate you on excellent study of God's Word. Unfortunately most people will dismiss this because it makes them feel uncomfortable

Genesis 10:21 gives opposing birth order in different translations. Some translations (NASB) says Shem is the older brother, and I believe this must be correct. In order to fulfill the pattern of passing over the first born to bless the second, Shem has to be the second oldest - and not Japheth. It is important to note that Shem is also the first son Noah blesses, and also attributes his faith in God to Shem. Also, Shem's line eventually yield's David and Jesus Christ - therefore Shem must be the second son and not Japheth. Furthermore, the pattern of second born receiving blessings and glory is also fulfilled in Jesus as he is the second man that God personally creates after Adam, who was the original accursed firstborn that fell directly from God's grace. Jesus brings God's children back to eternal life through his atoning sacrifice and resurrection. Ham, Shem, Japheth.

Wow... ! So fantastic! I learn by making charts too as God leads my heart in my study time. I love the correlations that God shows me, but wow, your study (this is the first of your videos I've viewed) of this deep passage of text is nothing short of fantastic! Thank you and well done! I cannot wait to view more of your messages!

Babylon had some weird obsession with Semiramis/Ishtar conceiving a son, Tammuz with out her husband and them marrying that son. Seems like similar mother-son relationship worship going on in that culture! And also isis conceiving a child while husband ra or Osiris is post mortem, maybe the son was Osiris. Weird

2 Questions: 1. What happened to Ham's original wife who rode with them on the ark? 2, Can we be sure that Noah's wife was actually Ham's mother and not just a stepmother, like Noah's second wife after the first died giving birth to Ham's younger brother?

Folks, this line of thinking is wrong. Simply put, If seeing their father's nakedness is lying with their mother in every case, then Shem and Japeth made time go backward until the act didn't happen. They walked backward and covered the nakedness of their father(THEIR MOTHER). And don't forget, they had something in their hand. To rightly divide this, we can't just drop part of it. We gotta live by every word because Jesus instructed us to do so.

Noah, who the Bible said was a righteous man, got drunk. If he had stayed sober the incident with Ham would have never happened.

All I can say is that God isn't dumb. Although your Biblical researchers my make some sense, if it's not mentioned in the bible, there is no way this information should be confirmed to be the truth. All our unanswered questions, We're all going to find out when we get in heaven. God bless you. I'll stick to the Bible ❤. ✌

Amazing teaching ! Explains so much. It is a lot to take in, but also explains why things are the way they are. 🤔😲

This is a perfect example of eisegesis. Genesis 9 is not about Ham having sex with his mother, it’s about Ham literally seeing his father naked. Scripture has no problem talking about Ruben’s intercourse with his father’s concubine so there wouldn’t be a problem specifically saying if Ham did this with his father’s wife. Yet scripture doesn’t support this theory and Ham and Ruben are not parallel stories. Neither are the many other examples that are being used to try to force an untrue narrative. The incorrect explanation of why the land was called Canaan but not explanation for a land being called Mizraim. If we’re to use the same “theory and eisegesis explanation” then we would assume Mizraim also came about the same way. (Which of course is untrue). Scripture plainly explains that Noah got drunk from his vineyard and became UNCOVERED in his tent. (“And he drank of the wine and was drunk, and [He] became uncovered in his tent.”) Ham SAW his father and Told his brothers. His brothers then covered their father’s nakedness (notice how they didn’t cover their mother or cover intimacy). When Noah awoke and knew what Ham did he cursed Ham’s youngest son who more than likely had already been born. Noah being drunk in his tent (yet no mention of his wife) supports the context that Noah was drunk and naked. Scripture says it’s shameful to be naked. If uncovered meant intimacy then Noah would have uncovered his wife, but as scripture says Noah became uncovered in his tent. Or the brothers would have been covering “intimacy” or their mother like this video has incorrectly explained. How does covering “intimacy” or covering a sinful act like this occur? Why isn’t it mentioned that they covered their mother? Why isn’t their mother not mentioned at least once in the chapter? 16:09 Ham is mentioned as the brothers of Shem and Japeth: “And the sons of Noaḥ who went out of the ark were Shĕm and Ḥam and Yapheth. And Ḥam was the father of Kena‛an.” Berĕshith (Genesis)‬ ‭9‬:‭18‬ ‭TS2009‬‬ 24:00 God didn’t lead them to Egypt it was the Israelites disobedience that led them there. 28:40 Genesis 9:24 says younger son 30:30 It wasn’t only sons as your “theory” conveys because grandchildren were also included as Jacob’s grandchildren Manasseh and Ephraim were sons of Joseph yet were given a blessing and accounted among the tribe of Israel by their grandfather. It’s not uncommon for grandfathers to bless/curse their grandchildren. Ruben although he did what he did, did not have his son cursed by his father, where is the “parallel context” for that? It wasn’t written that Lot’s daughters seen their father’s nakedness so how is this a “contextual parallel”? And although sinful it was a different circumstance for their reasoning in doing that with their father.

Glory be to God. Very wonderful message

Great information turning in for more nymrod is one I need to learn about

I knew something happened but didn’t know what. Heard a few scenarios but didn’t except any. But this made so much sense, enough for me to go study that out, using your video as a template.

If you do not get the beginning correct, the end is bound to be wrong....

Prophets do not have incest. You shouldn't believe this nonsense about rape and pregnancies from incest. Some people just invented this. Canaan is also a people not only a person. Cannan people are later bad (meaning did not worship God but perhaps worshipped idols) and then, later, holy Abraham was given that land. It is possible that one of the son's of Noah was an unbeliever and didn't get into the ark. S

Amazing analogy of Bible patterns! Regarding the FIRSTBORN CURSE, the FIRST ADAM got it, while Jesus Christ, the SECOND ADAM restores the blessings!

If you go to Deuteronomy 27:9-26 Curses From Mount Ebal,take note of verse 20

Canaan was the youngest of Ham's 4 sons, the fact that, just before relating the case of Noah’s drunkenness, Canaan is abruptly introduced into the account (Ge 9:18) and, in describing Ham’s actions, the record refers to him as “Ham the father of Canaan.” (Ge 9:22) That the expression “saw his father’s nakedness” may indicate some abuse or perversion that involved Canaan, is a reasonable conclusion. For in most instances incest or other sexual sins are meant when the Bible speaks of ‘laying bare’ or ‘seeing the nakedness’ of another. (Le 18:6-19; 20:17) So, it is possible that Canaan had committed or attempted to commit some abuse on the unconscious Noah and that Ham, though having knowledge of this, failed either to prevent it or to take disciplinary action against the offender, and compounded the wrong by making known to his brothers Noah’s disgrace. God’s foreknowledge was at work, and since the curse expressed by Noah was divinely inspired, and since God’s disfavor is not expressed without just cause, it is likely that Canaan had already manifested a definitely corrupt trait, perhaps of a lustful nature, and that God foresaw the bad results in which this characteristic would eventually culminate among Canaan’s descendants. The most obvious evidence of the justness of the curse placed on Canaan is thus seen in the later history of his descendants, for they built up a particularly sordid record of immorality and depravity, as both Biblical and secular history testify. The curse on Canaan saw its fulfillment some eight centuries after its pronouncement, when Canaan’s descendants were subjugated by the Semitic Israelites, later coming under the domination of the Japhetic powers of Medo-Persia, Greece, and Rome. Because all of the sons and grandsons of Noah would eventual take possession of land the rape theory isn't totally valet based on the presentation.

If Noah’s wife had been raped by Ham while she was conscious, there would be no need for her two other sons to come in and cover her up. She could cover herself up! It seems to me that maybe she got drunk along with her husband and didn’t know what was happening. This would reinforce the parallelism of alcohol as with Lot and his two daughters.

Amazing!! Mind-blowing! This is the first time I've watched your channel and I am blown away by your scholarship of God's Word. Scripture definitely contains patterns and parallels, and you have used this truth to a greater extent than I've ever seen or heard. (I went to Bible School and taught Bible classes, but my knowledge is far from exhaustive.) Thank you so much! It all makes perfect sense now. About ten years ago, I heard a Rabbi talking about this passage, and he alluded to the concept of the r@pe of Noah's wife. Even so, I never grasped the patterns of Genesis having to do with the firstborn cursen and how that translated to this story. God's Word is so fascinating and exciting when you finally see His truths. When you showed the Fertile Crescent and how it creates a rainbow across the Middle East, it brought tears to my eyes to see how God's blessings are faithful and true. What a magnificent picture. I don't know how I've never had your channel pop up in my yt feed before today, but you've gained a subscriber. I can't wait for more. I intend to binge watch everything in your archives. Thank you again, for producing this channel, and for staying true to the original text.

Your Companion’s Study Bible and Method of Hermeneutic, makes total sense.

That's a LOOOOTTTTAAAA speculation I've heard it taught as sex with his mother many times. But it still isn't logical with them walking backwards covering his nakedness (they covered their mother?)(Canaan?)

It is mindblowing how manty other theories and thoughts i have had came together in this video

I KNEW all this pretty much, but the deeper, more extensive dive was ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE.....AND THE "BOW"🌈.....WOW 🌈✝️🙏💜‼️ THANK YOU.. YOU OBVIOUSLY HAVE A BRILLIANT MIND...AND YOU HAVE DONE A GREAT DEAL OF WORK THAT TAKES A LOT OF YOUR "TIME"...I sure do appreciate your exciting but tedious work GOD bless you generously, in JESUS NAME that we might glorify our FATHER IN HEAVEN .. A--MEN 🙏✝️

This is probably the most accurate explanation yet. Keep in mind 2 principles that never cease to be in play. 1- The explanation to scripture is in the scripture. And… 2- God buries truth that only the diligent gets to uncover. That’s right! If you think you understand a passage because you read it once or twice, Or heard it in a sermon or a video, Just know that you’re probably wrong about it’s meaning. That’s why the scripture you thought you understood 15 years ago is not what scripture is saying. And you go “oh. I was wrong about that!” All true Christians experience this. This gentleman has connected some serious dots in this video. Now it’s my job to research.

If Moses wrote that Cain killed Abel and that Lot's daughters lied with him then why would he not write that Ham lied with his mother? Why is this passage in code that has to be related to Leviticus and put into a chart? Moses wasn't shy. Don't smoke meth.

Clear thinking is rare nowadays. Thank you for your work.

Amazing video! You tie up so many threads and parallel stories. The Bible opens up and we see more of God’s Plan of Salvation from the beginning despite man’s sin. It fits well with “Ham’s Sin and Canaan’s Curse” by Just Scripture Ministries 👍💯

I think this reads too much into this verse. Respect for parents was adamount in these times, and Ham showed disrespect by jeering at his father and doing nothing to fix the problem. The so-called curse on Canaan was simply prophetic announcement to bring Ham Down to earth. The evil example of Ham filtered down, by example, to his descendants.

Extremly fasinating description about Ham son of Noah.

EXCELLENT! well done, but it sounds like you’re recording in a bucket. maybe it’s my phone?

This is amazing. Thank you for allowing God to use you...
