1 Και αυται ειναι αι γενεαλογιαι των υιων του Νωε, Σημ, Χαμ και Ιαφεθ· και εγεννηθησαν εις αυτους υιοι μετα τον κατακλυσμον.

2 Οι υιοι του Ιαφεθ ησαν Γομερ, και Μαγωγ, και Μαδαι, και Ιαυαν, και Θουβαλ, και Μεσεχ, και Θειρας.

3 Και οι υιοι του Γομερ, Ασχεναζ, και Ριφαθ, και Θωγαρμα.

4 Και οι υιοι του Ιαυαν, Ελεισα, και Θαρσεις, Κιττειμ, και Δωδανειμ.

5 Εκ τουτων εμοιρασθησαν αι νησοι των εθνων εις τους τοπους αυτων· εκαστου κατα την γλωσσαν αυτου, κατα τας φυλας αυτων, εις τα εθνη αυτων.

6 Και οι υιοι του Χαμ, Χους, και Μισραιμ, και Φουθ, και Χανααν.

7 Και οι υιοι του Χους, Σεβα, και Αβιλα, και Σαβθα, και Ρααμα, και Σαβθεκα· και οι υιοι του Ρααμα, Σεβα, και Δαιδαν.

8 Και ο Χους εγεννησε τον Νεβρωδ· ουτος ηρχισε να ηναι ισχυρος επι της γης·

9 αυτος ητο ισχυρος κυνηγος ενωπιον του Κυριου· δια τουτο λεγεται, Ως Νεβρωδ, ισχυρος κυνηγος ενωπιον του Κυριου·

10 και η αρχη της βασιλειας αυτου εσταθη Βαβυλων, και Ερεχ, και Αχαδ, και Χαλνε, εν τη γη Σεννααρ.

11 Εκ της γης εκεινης εξηλθεν ο Ασσουρ, και ωκοδομησε την Νινευη, και την πολιν Ρεχωβωθ, και την Χαλαχ,

12 και την Ρεσεν μεταξυ της Νινευη και της Χαλαχ· αυτη ειναι η πολις η μεγαλη.

13 Και ο Μισραιμ εγεννησε τους Λουδειμ, και τους Αναμειμ, και τους Λεαβειμ, και τους Ναφθουχειμ,

14 και τους Πατρουσειμ, και τους Χασλουχειμ, εκ των οποιων εξηλθον οι Φιλισταιοι, και τους Χαφθορειμ.

15 Και ο Χανααν εγεννησε τον Σιδωνα, πρωτοτοκον αυτου, και τον Χετταιον,

16 και τον Ιεβουσαιον, και τον Αμορραιον, και τον Γεργεσαιον,

17 και τον Ευαιον, και τον Αρουχαιον, και τον Ασενναιον,

18 και τον Αρβαδιον, και τον Σαμαραιον, και τον Αμαθαιον. Και μετα τουτο διεσπαρησαν αι φυλαι των Χαναναιων.

19 Και ησαν τα ορια των Χαναναιων απο Σιδωνος, καθως υπαγει τις εις Γεραρα, εως Γαζης, και καθως υπαγει τις εις Σοδομα και Γομορρα, και Αδαμα, και Σεβωειμ, εως Λασα.

20 Ουτοι ειναι οι υιοι του Χαμ, κατα τας φυλας αυτων, κατα τας γλωσσας αυτων, εις τους τοπους αυτων, εις τα εθνη αυτων.

21 Και εις τον Σημ, τον πατερα παντων των υιων του Εβερ, τον αδελφον Ιαφεθ του μεγαλητερου, εγεννηθησαν και εις αυτον υιοι.

22 Υιοι του Σημ ησαν Ελαμ, και Ασσουρ, και Αρφαξαδ, και Λουδ, και Αραμ.

23 Και οι υιοι του Αραμ, Ουζ, και Ουλ, και Γεθερ, και Μας.

24 Και ο Αρφαξαδ εγεννησε τον Σαλα· και ο Σαλα εγεννησε τον Εβερ.

25 Και εις τον Εβερ εγεννηθησαν δυο υιοι· το ονομα του ενος, Φαλεγ· διοτι εν ταις ημεραις αυτου διεμερισθη η γη· και το ονομα του αδελφου αυτου, Ιοκταν.

26 Και ο Ιοκταν εγεννησε τον Αλμωδαδ, και τον Σαλεφ, και τον Ασαρμαβεθ, και τον Ιαραχ,

27 και τον Αδωραμ, και τον Ουζαλ, και τον Δικλα,

28 και τον Οβαλ, και τον Αβιμαηλ, και τον Σεβα,

29 και τον Οφειρ, και τον Αβιλα, και τον Ιωβαβ· παντες ουτοι ησαν υιοι του Ιοκταν.

30 Και η κατοικια αυτων ητο απο Μησα, καθως υπαγει τις εις Σεφαρα, ορος της Ανατολης.

31 Ουτοι ειναι οι υιοι του Σημ, κατα τας φυλας αυτων, κατα τας γλωσσας αυτων, εις τους τοπους αυτων, κατα τα εθνη αυτων.

32 Αυται ειναι αι φυλαι των υιων του Νωε, κατα τας γενεας αυτων, εις τα εθνη αυτων· και εκ τουτων διεσπαρησαν τα εθνη επι της γης μετα τον κατακλυσμον.

1096. Blessed be Jehovah the God of Shem. That this signifies every good for those who worship the Lord from internals, is evident from the signification of “blessed.” Blessing involves every good: celestial, spiritual, and natural; and all these are signified by “blessing” in the internal sense. In the external sense, by “blessing” is signified every worldly, corporeal, and earthly good; but these, if they be a blessing, must necessarily be so from internal blessing; for this alone is blessing, because it is eternal, and is conjoined with every felicity, and is the very being of blessings. For what really is, unless it is eternal? Every other being ceases to be. It was customary among the ancients to say, “Blessed be Jehovah;” by which they meant that from Him is every blessing, that is, every good; and the same was also a formula of thanksgiving because the Lord blesses, and has blessed; as in David (Psalms 28:6; 31:21; 41:13; 66:20; 68:19, 35; 72:18-19; 89:52; 119:12; 124:6; 135:21; 144:1; and many other places).

[2] “Blessed be Jehovah” is said here because Shem, or the internal church, is the subject that is being treated of, which church is said to be internal, from charity. In charity the Lord is present, who is here called “Jehovah God.” But He is not so called in the external church, for although the Lord is present in it, He is not present as He is in the man of the internal church. For the man of the external church still believes that he does the goods of charity from himself, and therefore when the subject treated of is the man of the external church, the Lord is called “God” as in the following verse concerning Japheth: “God shall enlarge Japheth.” That every good is the portion of those who worship the Lord from internals, is evident also from the order of things; for the order is this: from the Lord is everything celestial, from the celestial is everything spiritual, from the spiritual is everything natural. This is the order of the coming forth of all things, and therefore it is the order of influx.

[3] The celestial is love to the Lord and toward the neighbor. Where there is no love, the connection is broken, and the Lord is not present, who flows in solely through the celestial, that is, through love. When there is no celestial, there cannot possibly be any spiritual, because everything spiritual is through the celestial from the Lord. The spiritual is faith, and therefore there is no faith except through charity, or love, from the Lord. It is similar with the natural. According to this same order do all goods flow in; from which it follows that those have every good who worship the Lord from internals, that is, from charity; whereas those who do not worship Him from charity have no good, save such as counterfeits what is good, but in itself is evil, such as the delight of hatreds and adulteries, which regarded in itself is nothing but an excrementitious delight, into which also it is turned in the other life.
