1 ואלה תולדת בני־נח שם חם ויפת ויולדו להם בנים אחר המבול׃

2 בני יפת גמר ומגוג ומדי ויון ותבל ומשך ותירס׃

3 ובני גמר אשכנז וריפת ותגרמה׃

4 ובני יון אלישה ותרשיש כתים ודדנים׃

5 מאלה נפרדו איי הגוים בארצתם איש ללשנו למשפחתם בגויהם׃

6 ובני חם כוש ומצרים ופוט וכנען׃

7 ובני כוש סבא וחוילה וסבתה ורעמה וסבתכא ובני רעמה שבא ודדן׃

8 וכוש ילד את־נמרד הוא החל להיות גבר בארץ׃

9 הוא־היה גבר־ציד לפני יהוה על־כן יאמר כנמרד גבור ציד לפני יהוה׃

10 ותהי ראשית ממלכתו בבל וארך ואכד וכלנה בארץ שנער׃

11 מן־הארץ ההוא יצא אשור ויבן את־נינוה ואת־רחבת עיר ואת־כלח׃

12 ואת־רסן בין נינוה ובין כלח הוא העיר הגדלה׃

13 ומצרים ילד את־לודים ואת־ענמים ואת־להבים ואת־נפתחים׃

14 ואת־פתרסים ואת־כסלחים אשר יצאו משם פלשתים ואת־כפתרים׃ ס

15 וכנען ילד את־צידן בכרו ואת־חת׃

16 ואת־היבוסי ואת־האמרי ואת הגרגשי׃

17 ואת־החוי ואת־הערקי ואת־הסיני׃

18 ואת־הארודי ואת־הצמרי ואת־החמתי ואחר נפצו משפחות הכנעני׃

19 ויהי גבול הכנעני מצידן באכה גררה עד־עזה באכה סדמה ועמרה ואדמה וצבים עד־לשע׃

20 אלה בני־חם למשפחתם ללשנתם בארצתם בגויהם׃ ס

21 ולשם ילד גם־הוא אבי כל־בני־עבר אחי יפת הגדול׃

22 בני שם עילם ואשור וארפכשד ולוד וארם׃

23 ובני ארם עוץ וחול וגתר ומש׃

24 וארפכשד ילד את־שלח ושלח ילד את־עבר׃

25 ולעבר ילד שני בנים שם האחד פלג כי בימיו נפלגה הארץ ושם אחיו יקטן׃

26 ויקטן ילד את־אלמודד ואת־שלף ואת־חצרמות ואת־ירח׃

27 ואת־הדורם ואת־אוזל ואת־דקלה׃

30 ויהי מושבם ממשא באכה ספרה הר הקדם׃

31 אלה בני־שם למשפחתם ללשנתם בארצתם לגויהם׃

32 אלה משפחת בני־נח לתולדתם בגויהם ומאלה נפרדו הגוים בארץ אחר המבול׃ ף

1154. 'Ashkenaz, Riphath, and Togarmah' were just so many nations with whom such worship existed, and who mean just so many types of matters of doctrine which were forms of ritual, derived from the external worship existing with 'Gomer'. This is clear from the Prophets where the same nations are mentioned again. Those nations mean in every instance doctrinal teachings or forms of ritual. And as usual they are meant in both senses, at times in the genuine and at others in the contrary. Ashkenaz is mentioned in Jeremiah,

Set up a standard on the earth, sound the trumpet among the nations; consecrate the nations against her, cause the kingdoms of Ararat, Minni, and Ashkenaz to hear against her. Jeremiah 5:27.

This refers to the destruction of Babel where 'Ashkenaz' stands for its idolatrous worship, that is, for external worship separated from internal, which destroyed Babylon. In particular it stands for doctrines that are false. Thus Ashkenaz is used in the contrary sense. Togarmah is mentioned in Ezekiel,

Javan, Tubal, and Meshech, they were your traders in the souls of men, and they gave vessels of bronze for your merchandise. Those of Bethtogarmah gave horses and horsemen, and mules for your resources. Ezekiel 27:13-14.

This refers to Tyre which represented people who possessed cognitions of celestial and spiritual things. As previously, 'Javan, Tubal, and Meshech' are various representative rites, that is, ones that correspond; and so also is 'Bethtogarmah'. The external rites of the former have regard to celestial things, but those of the latter, or Bethtogarmah, to spiritual things, as is clear from the meaning of the wares with which they traded. In this case Bethtogarmah is used in the genuine sense. In the same prophet,

Gomer and all on his Ranks; Bethtogarmah, the uttermost parts of the north, together with ale on his flanks. Ezekiel 38:6.

Here they stand for perverted matters of doctrine, which are also 'the uttermost parts of the north'. In this case Gomer and Bethtogarmah are used in the contrary sense.

Genesis 10

Studie

   

1 Now this is the history of the generations of the sons of Noah and of Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Sons were born to them after the flood.

2 The sons of Japheth: Gomer, Magog, Madai, Javan, Tubal, Meshech, and Tiras.

3 The sons of Gomer: Ashkenaz, Riphath, and Togarmah.

4 The sons of Javan: Elishah, Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim.

5 Of these were the islands of the nations divided in their lands, everyone after his language, after their families, in their nations.

6 The sons of Ham: Cush, Mizraim, Put, and Canaan.

7 The sons of Cush: Seba, Havilah, Sabtah, Raamah, and Sabteca. The sons of Raamah: Sheba and Dedan.

8 Cush became the father of Nimrod. He began to be a mighty one in the earth.

9 He was a mighty hunter before Yahweh. Therefore it is said, "Like Nimrod, a mighty hunter before Yahweh."

10 The beginning of his kingdom was Babel, Erech, Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar.

11 Out of that land he went forth into Assyria, and built Nineveh, Rehoboth Ir, Calah,

12 and Resen between Nineveh and Calah (the same is the great city).

13 Mizraim became the father of Ludim, Anamim, Lehabim, Naphtuhim,

14 Pathrusim, Casluhim (which the Philistines descended from), and Caphtorim.

15 Canaan became the father of Sidon (his firstborn), Heth,

16 the Jebusite, the Amorite, the Girgashite,

17 the Hivite, the Arkite, the Sinite,

18 the Arvadite, the Zemarite, and the Hamathite. Afterward the families of the Canaanites were spread abroad.

19 The border of the Canaanites was from Sidon, as you go toward Gerar, to Gaza; as you go toward Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboiim, to Lasha.

20 These are the sons of Ham, after their families, after their languages, in their lands, in their nations.

21 To Shem, the father of all the children of Eber, the elder brother of Japheth, to him also were children born.

22 The sons of Shem: Elam, Asshur, Arpachshad, Lud, and Aram.

23 The sons of Aram: Uz, Hul, Gether, and Mash.

24 Arpachshad became the father of Shelah. Shelah became the father of Eber.

25 To Eber were born two sons. The name of the one was Peleg, for in his days the earth was divided. His brother's name was Joktan.

26 Joktan became the father of Almodad, Sheleph, Hazarmaveth, Jerah,

27 Hadoram, Uzal, Diklah,

28 Obal, Abimael, Sheba,

29 Ophir, Havilah, and Jobab. All these were the sons of Joktan.

30 Their dwelling was from Mesha, as you go toward Sephar, the mountain of the east.

31 These are the sons of Shem, after their families, after their languages, in their lands, after their nations.

32 These are the families of the sons of Noah, after their generations, in their nations. Of these were the nations divided in the earth after the flood.
