Wow! Those verses in Genesis are deeper than I ever realized!The Holy Bible is so deep and profound and discreet! Your analysis and discussion has educated me on these verses which in times past I read and didn’t really grasp. Noah got drunk and passed out and was violated by Ham’s sin. That sin was adultery. Adultery would make any dad or husband angry. Out of anger, after Noah had recovered from his drunkenness, he blesses Shem and Japheth but not Ham. Ham had impregnated his own mother and tried to usurp the position and authority of his father Noah. Noah, out of understandable wrath, curses his step son Canaan. By not forgiving Ham and doing this curse out of anger, Noah, the father of all humanity, accidentally curses his entire family line because we are all inter-related, of one blood, descendants of Noah as Acts 17:26 reminds us. When Noah’s ark rested on Ararat, the whole earth had only one family - Noah’s family. Just 8+ souls survived the global flood! To understand the gravity of this portion of scripture and what happened, one must read the book of Job, realizing that this entire existence we live is about the spiritual war between God and Satan. This is not entirely about human beings. Until we understand that, the events of this world are not fully understood because our five senses cannot see the full picture of reality just as a dog cannot see all the colors that a human being can see! Some of that information is not seen by a dog. Likewise, there is much information that we humans cannot see because they go beyond the reach of our five senses. Clearly Satan corrupted Ham’s mind and poisoned him with carnal emotions and wrong thinking. Ham takes full advantage of his drunken father who passes out and usurps his position as father and violates his authority by committing adultery with his mother. Like Satan, who wants to usurp God and take over God’s position and authority, Ham did the same thing to his father Noah. Noah was understandably wroth! After he recovered from his drunkenness, he blessed Japheth and Shem, who respected his position and role and authority as father but didn’t bless Ham who made Noah’s wife pregnant. Canaan was born out of adultery from Noah’s wife’s womb. Noah, out of anger, curses Canaan. The righteous are not always right but they are still righteous. Noah, like Moses and Lot and Simon Peter, isn’t perfect but they are still righteous individuals. By cursing Canaan, the entire world is adversely affected by the curse of Noah upon Canaan, which is rejection of God and false religions. The sin of Ham, which is adultery, exists all over the entire world. Rejection of God and false beliefs also exist all over the earth! This is a war between God and Satan! Satan does not want human beings to believe in God! Satan wants to kill destroy and lure souls into damnation. Every time God resets and begins a new dispensation for humanity, fallen Lucifer or Satan, is eager to destroy that! The flood marked the end of one period and the family of Noah began a new reset for humanity and Satan was determined to destroy that reset unfortunately and Satan did as he did in the Garden of Eden in Genesis 3!

Seems like a logical explanation. Now, can we stop saying that "ALL of Ham's children were cursed"? It was only Canaan. Cush, Mitzraim, and Put were NOT cursed. All Black people don't come from Canaanites. So, enough with saying all Blacks were cursed because of a bad rumor and lie. Just thought folks ought to know that. Thank you for sharing. Shalom.

@@1clemex hmm, I'm seeing that Ham discovered his son Canaan in an act with Hams drunken father (Noah) and seen his nakedness. When Noah woke up from his drunkenness and learned what his youngest son had done to him... likely the same action that occured in sodom. Noah said cursed be Canaan. Remember that even grandchildren were called the sons of the patriarch. Christ is still called son of David even though hundreds of years passed before christ's birth. Ham just happened to be the father if the culprit but only the doer of the bad action, Canaan was cursed.

In the same chapter, Ge 9:22 sheds even more light than Ge 9:24. We learn that Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brothers outside. What on earth did he tell them? If he had just committed some kind of violent or despicable crime, would he tell his brothers? In such a case, wouldn't Ham deserve some sort of rebuke?

@@BrendaJones492 Because Moses compiled the Text hundreds of years later, there are many anachronisms found within. Therefore, Moses could easily say Noah cursed Canaan if at the time Noah only cursed whatever offspring came about of Ham and Mrs Noah's episode. None of Noah's sons had any children that went into the ark with them. Many events are condensed or telescoped because of writing or compiling the information later. Micah 5:2 is used to pinpoint the Messiah's birthplace, but in verse 5 and 6 we learn of his conquering the Assyrian at presumably Yeshua's 2nd coming as Conquering King.

We see this throughout Genesis as the events are interpreted while they are presented. We are told the significance on the timeline of redemptive history.

One theory is that it is an edited version of a Greek myth in which Zeus sees Chronos naked and castrates him; another is that his wife was a human-nephalim hybrid, and since the flood was supposed to destroy all hybrids, this caused the Canaanites (their children) to be hybrids, requiring the Hebrews to kill them later.

Shalom, shalom. I was thinking about this two days ago, I feel like the Lord was speaking to me about this, Noah couldn’t curse ham, because he was blessed by God after the flood. So he cursed Canaan the product of ham’s unfaithfulness, and implicated ham in the sentence. As a way to humble him, for his pride. Moses wrote the whole Torah. And therefore we can conclude that the phrase nakedness of the father has the same meaning in Genesis and Leviticus.

​​@@iam2908 Gen 9:25 do not have 'And' at the beginning of the verse in the Hebrew, hence it does not mean that this was immediately after the act. Scripture actually gives precedence for it being and end-of-life blessing/curse similar to what was done by Abraham, Isaac and even Jacob since verse 28 went on to speak about his length of years and he died. Furthermore, this was a prophetic utterance, so it could simply be that Noah spoke prophetically about Canaan especially since his very name come from Hebrew Kana which means to be humbled or subjected. Thus Noah spoke prophetically the name of this son and what would befall him. Either options are available which makes perfect sense.

Take this for what it’s worth and excuse any typos/confusion. Feel free to point out issues or confusion to seek clarity on my opinions. My scattered notes on my iPhone as I watched: Gen 2-3 man and woman were naked, no problem. After eating the fruit there eyes are opened and they are able to see that they are naked and they feel shame. Adam tells god he was scared because he was naked and god says who told you you were naked did you eat from the tree? They covered themselves with fig leaves and after the interaction with Yah, he covers them. I wonder why. To me it seems to be because now they can see good and evil so the righteous thing is to cover up nakedness. Seems to show that 👉seeing👈 nakedness is problematic, maybe even sinful. Gen 9 And Noah began to be an husbandman, and he planted a vineyard: 21 And he drank of the wine, and was drunken; and he was uncovered within his tent. 22 And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brethren without. 23 And Shem and Japheth took a garment, and laid it upon both their shoulders, and went backward, and covered the nakedness of their father; and their faces were backward, and they saw not their father's nakedness. 24 And Noah awoke from his wine, and knew what his younger son had done unto him. 25 And he said, Cursed be Canaan; a servant of servants shall he be unto his brethren. 26 And he said, Blessed be the Lord God of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant. Noah gets drunk and uncovers (1540 gaw-law) himself. Does that mean he was naked or does it mean that he was naked and he had sex with his wife? Or was prepared to? Simply reading the text says Noah became “disgracefully naked” (different from becoming naked to bathe or change for example). Ham sees (7200. raw-aw) his fathers nakedness, not uncovers (gaw-law). I don’t see any sexual implication to the word raw-aw. It does have the implication of staring, viewing, thinking, to spy, gaze, enjoy, have experience, etc. this might very loosely allow the assumption of maybe ham lusting after his dad? The video says it was a sever punishment and then asks, was Noah just really insecure? Seems to belittle the idea that looking (gazing) upon ones nakedness could in fact be a punishable sin. Wilbur says “it seems unlikely” that the sever punishment was just for ham seeing Noah. 1. The word shows more than just seeing 2. That is what the text explicitly says. Anything beyond that is to presuppose something into the text. Gaw-law to denude (especially in a disgraceful sense); by implication, to exile (captives being usually stripped); figuratively, to reveal -- + advertise, appear, bewray, bring, (carry, lead, go) captive (into captivity), depart, disclose, discover, exile, be gone, open, X plainly, publish, remove, reveal, X shamelessly, shew, X surely, tell, uncover. At 3:00 min the Bergsma and Hahn reference assumes that the camp of saying the problem was that Canaan physically saw his dad naked thinks it was an accidental look upon Noah being naked. I would make the case (based on the word raw-aw) that he more so gazed, spied, enjoyed etc. his dads nakedness. Vs 24. Why assume that the brothers didn’t tell Noah what happened? Why is the automatic assumption that Canaan must have done something for Noah to have known? Simply something like “hey dad here’s what happened and so we walked in backwards and covered you up. Something is off with Ham.” Around 3:40 again Wilbur assumes that the case is that it was only passively looking upon. Around 5:14 While to “uncover nakedness” can be and is an idiom for sex. To “see nakedness” does not seem to be an idiom for sex. Again uncover = gaw-law and see = raw-aw are two different words. Raw-aw is literally associated with the eye(s) Wilbur makes a case on lev 20:17 and says that to see nakedness and to uncover nakedness are equated but the translation could certainly have two different concepts simultaneously. Being: to look upon, stare at, gaze upon your brother or sisters nakedness is shameful, disgraceful and you are cut off from your people. The second concept can be separate (note the lack of grammar in Hebrew/Greek) and can be translated to say if you uncover (gaw-law) your sisters nakedness, you will bear your iniquity. *look up Leviticus 20:17 in Hebrew, literal translations and Septuagint. Around 6:48 The sense of the word gaw-law is not necessarily to “derobe in preparation of sex”, but rather to be naked in a disgraceful manner. Why even make this point about them being abundantly cautious as to not even look if the argument is that seeing someone naked isn’t a problem. Also, just that, why would Shem and Japheth go through all of the physical preparations to not see if seeing was a nonissue? Is it really correct that to see nakedness is an idiom for sex in the Hebrew? Raw-aw (to see) is to literally see, gaze, stare... gaw-law (uncover) is to literally denude disgracefully. In the case of lev 20:17 seeing nakedness is to gaze upon ones nakedness/shame but uncovering nakedness is to disgraceful denude ones nakedness/shame. In regard to the nakedness of the father being the wife, meaning to uncover the fathers nakedness means you’re actually uncovering your fathers wife: while that is true it is not only that. A fathers nakedness is also that of his own nakedness. See ylt of lev 18:7-8 as well as literal Hebrew words used, as well as Septuagint. The translation Wilbur uses says “you shall not uncover the nakedness of your father, which is the nakedness of your mother...” this is inaccurate. The actual text says do not uncover your fathers nakedness (and) do not uncover your mothers nakedness. Then goes on to say your mothers nakedness is your fathers nakedness. The text Wilbur uses does a disservice to the text to show that the fathers nakedness is actually the fathers wife’s nakedness only. He says that his 4th interpretation is the only interpretation that provides an explanation as to why Canaan was cursed. I disagree, why can’t the explanation for the curse on Canaan be as simple as: it’s the same thing Yah does, visiting the iniquities of the fathers upon the 3rd and 4th generations. Same concept. It’s more of a punishment to watch your children suffer for your crime than for you yourself to suffer for your crime. He says there are biblical examples (plural) (maybe there are multiple examples?) of people sleeping with the wives and or concubines of others to usurp authority and gives one example. For whatever it’s worth. Around 12:22 I’m not seeing the feminine suffix attached. Maybe I’m missing something. Even in gen 24:67 I’m not seeing that the masculine is used? The word ohel (h169) is a masculine noun translating to tent and is the word used in both cases. The word oholah (h170) is the feminine noun translated as her own tent. This word is not used in either case from what I see? Shem and Japheth walk backward with a cover over their shoulders and their faces backward to cover their fathers nakedness. It’s safe to say they did not see (raw-aw) their father. 1. Why walk backward if seeing is not a problem (Some say “out of respect”)(is that not a cultural relevance for us? Is it ok to assume it was “disrespectful” to see someone naked in their time and culture? Especially if we’re making the case that seeing was not the problem?) 2. Why even go in the tent in the first place if the problem was that he slept with Noah’s wife? Why not stay out and just tell Noah what Canaan told them, when Noah becomes conscious again? 3. If the problem was that Canaan slept with Noah’s wife and that’s what it means by saying Noah was uncovered, was Noah even naked or just passed out drunk? 4. If Canaan slept with Noah’s wife and that was the issue, who did the brothers go in to cover, Noah or his wife or both of them? 5. Was Noah’s wife also drunk? 6. Did she consent? 7. If so why no punishment for her mentioned? Also how did Noah curse Canaan if Canaan wasn’t already present at the time of this happening? I see no merit for saying that Noah prophetically cursed Canaan and that Canaan wasn’t yet born but was the offspring of ham sleeping with Noah’s wife. It reads as though Canaan was on the scene already. Especially because Noah says “cursed be Canaan”. Did he prophecy that the offspring of the event would be named Canaan? If that were the case did ham choose to name his son Canaan because Noah said “cursed be Canaan”? Around 14:20 So much assumption and reading into the text to come up with that conclusion. It doesn’t actually say any of that. I tend to agree with the first quote from bergsma and Hahn about: the strength of the position of ham seeing his father naked is that it doesn’t see anything into the text that isn’t explicitly there. Wilbur opens up by saying this position simply takes the text for what is says. Is that not what we’re supposed to do? Assuming of course that we have an accurate translation in front of us. That is faith. 14:59 Why can’t the reason for mentioning that ham is the father of Canaan simply be to remind you of this particular event (immediately after the flood whose purpose was to eradicate wickedness and start over) itself and that it is a cursed lineage and the severity of presumptuous sin in general?

I understand this text in this particular manner it was Canaan who slept with Noah's wife most certainly his grandmother, and informed his father Ham and what he did was go into the tent and confirm this and fazed upon his naked father and mother, and informed his brothers of what had happened by this understanding it seems Canaan was directly cursed because he already present.

@@legendarytruth_t8265 yes i always thought something similar, what people don't understand is in old Hebrew the word "son" can sometimes mean descendant or grandson Jesus himself even said "I am a son of David" I believe the part in genesis where it says "knew what his younger son had done to him" He is actually referring to Canaan and not Ham. The word "younger son" meaning grandson instead of youngest son. People always assume Ham is the youngest of the three sons when Genesis places Hams name as the second son in this order Shem,Ham,Yapheth.

An excellent literal analysis. However, a purely literal analysis renders this story to have no sensical meaning. I am sure people spoke and wrote using colloquialisms. Example in modern language: I accuse you of sleeping with your mother and put a curse on your son for a consequence. Despite your protestations that you were just a baby when it happens, I insist that sleeping with your mother is a sin. Period. I am a huge believer in never adding to the word, and a lot of crazy rabbinical garbage has been added by doing so, trying to mentally fill in the gaps, but this story either literally means nothing, or there is a lot more to it. To go even further, it could be that Ham wasnt cursed because he was already put to death for such a grievous crime. That would make Hams wife a widow, and the only available man for her to marry would be Noah, thus making up for the fact that Noah could no longer have sex with his first wife, as she was permanently defiled. Everything makes almost perfect and consistent biblical sense in this context.

Another understanding of the Leviticus 20:17 verse is uncovering your father’s nakedness means actually committing incest with your mother, the father’s wife. Ham had sex with his mother while Noah was out cold in a drunken state. This he uncovered his father’s nakedness by uncovering his mother. His mother conceived Canaan from this act of incest, which was most likely rape. Therefore Canaan was now the product of Ham’s sin toward his father. This is why Noah cursed Ham and Canaan. Considering who the Canaanite’s come from ancestrally speaking, they too did the same sinful acts of incest just as their father Ham did.

To the 4th option: How did Noah know Ham's childs name if he wasn't even born yet? How did Noah know Canaan came from Ham and Noahs wife..aka Hams mother if Canaan wasn't even born yet. I believe Canaan was the 4th son of Ham, from Ham's wife - maybe even a young boy at the time of Ham seeing Noah naked, stealing Adams garments, and telling his two brothers outside about it. What Happened in Noah's wife's tent? Did Ham rape his own mother? did he laugh at Noah, steal the garments of Noah/ Adam and told his brothers just the 1st part? Ham later kept the garment hidden and then gave the garment to Kush, who gave it to Nimrod who built Shinar, Babel, Tower.

A 5th possibility, some translations phrase it as when Noah was drunk, he "became uncovered in his tent" which could reference to him having relations with his wife, and Ham "Saw his father's nakedness" possibly referring to Ham walking in on the act, and then telling his brothers. Does leave a hole though when considering the text of his brothers putting garments on him and avoiding seeing their father's nakedness. But just a thought.

Genesis 9:1 says that: "God blessed Noah AND HIS SONS (emphasis mine...)..." So, Noah didn't have the power or authority to curse his son because God had already blessed him (as I understand it, you can't curse what God has already blessed...).

Kind of a side note here about Noah's drunkenness, I heard it said that before the flood there was no fermented drink. Thus, after the water canopy collapsed, the atmospheric pressure and other scientific changes that Noah unknowingly drank his grape juice that had become wine. The change in the world's atmosphere had other lasting effects such as the age of man. It is noted that the long ages of man pre-flood fell drastically after the deluge.

This was not about homosexuality. Ham had a sexual relationship with and bore a kid by Noah's wife, Hams mother. God said, " to see your father's nakedness is to see your mothers nakedness". The talk is about not sleeping with your mom, stepmom or sister if you are a boy, and you should not sleep with your dad, stepdad or brother if you are a girl. Nowhere is the thought of homosexuality brought up. And what are the Canaanites, the descendants of Canaan well-known for, incest not homosexuality.

Also, to bolster explanation #4; The Canaanites were known for their immorality, including sexual sins, and even sacrificing babies to their gods. Giants were also in Canaan, as well. It seems that sin bred true in Ham's offspring, and perhaps the second nephilim incursion occured through Ham. Often the sins of the father are visited on the son, and his sons. Ham's sin, therefore could affect Canaanites for generations to come.

As many believe that the book of Jubilees, although not considered canon, coincides well with the book of Genesis and is a reliable source of information, but, tells a different story about Noah's curse upon Cannan. In Jubilees 7:6-13 it describes Noah cursing Ham's youngest son, implying that Canaan at the time, already existed. In the fourth option, although plausible and in line with the description of "uncovering the fathers nakedness" in Leviticus, I'm conflicted by the passage in Jubilees enough to question Canaan as an offspring of Ham and his mother.

When it was time for the harvest, Cain presented some of his gift to the Lord. Abel also brought a gift - the best of the firstborn lambs from his flock. The Lord accepted Abel and his gift, but He did not accept Cain and his gift. The Bible kind of ‘skips over’ going from Adam and Eve being sent out of the garden, to Eve giving birth to Cain then Abel and next paragraph the boys have grown and that’s when they give God their gifts - prior to this, there’s no clue as to their character.

One interpretation I've seen offered is that in getting drunk to the point of disrobing and lying naked where anyone could see him, Noah had either sinned or otherwise behaved inappropriately. Ham saw him in such behavior, and rather than cover him up and have a talk with him later about his problem, instead decided to go and gossip about him to his brothers. He made fun of their father for falling short of what was expected of a man of God, when he should have pulled him aside to talk to him about his sin in love.

It takes awhile to digest these truths ... and one must apply hermenutics in order to substantiate these verses. Genesis 9:22 ... and Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the NAKEDNESS OF HIS FATHER, and told his two brethren without. Understanding that the law gave a clear outline regarding seeing the "nakedness" of someone. In Leviticus 18:8 ... "The nakedness of thy father's wife shalt thou not uncover: IT IS THY FATHER'S NAKEDNESS". Ham saw the nakedness of HIS father; this shows possession. It was an unlawful thing to do! His mother's nakedness belongs to Noah according to the levitical law pertaining to nakedness. It's interesting to note that when Noah awoke from his drunkenness; he SAW what his son had done unto him. How did he know it was Ham, he was drunk at the time? Someone told him what Ham had done. Finally, Ham's decision to go into that tent was sinful and there were consequences for that act!

Leviticus 18:7 is a Metaphorical/Allegorical/Symbolism of the English word "NAKEDNESS" which means INCEST... and not a literal "NAKEDNESS or NUDE" Person, which means literally without clothes... Take note: The Original Hebrew-Aramaic Word used for Nakedness in Leviticus 18:7 is "ER VAT."... while the Original Hebrew-Aramaic word used for Nakedness in Genesis 9:22, is "ER WAT."... and NOT the same in CONTEXT and MEANING... In the case of NOAH, it was narrated that he "literally" planted a VINEYARD and got "literally" DRUNK from the Fruits of the "literal" WINE that caused him to "literally" UNCOVERED (Naked/Nude) in his tent... That was the reason why Shem and Japeth "literally" got a BLANKET and "literally" WALKED backward so as not to see the "literal" NAKEDNESS of NOAH (ref. Genesis 9:20-23)... This ACT was a gesture or sign of "literal" RESPECT and HONOR to their human father (Noah) as well as the Prophet of God... HAM "literally" SAW the "literal" NAKEDNESS of his father (Noah), and had done literally NOTHING to cover him up with Robe or Blanket, but instead told his brothers... in those DAYS that was a Shameful ACT of MOCKERY to their Parents most especially as the Prophet of God... It was narrated that upon knowing what HAM had done at that moment when Noah woke up, Noah "literally" CURSED Ham's son CANAAN... (ref. Genesis 9:24-25)... therefore, CANAAN already literally EXISTED even before the EVENT had happened, logically speaking with some common sense... Canaan can not come from Noah's Wife... ALL these written NARRATIVE EVENTS that had happened in Genesis 9:20-25 were ALL LITERAL EVENT SCENES... If we base the word NAKEDNESS (Incest) on the LAW written in Leviticus 18:7, the punishment should surely put HAM and Noah's WIFE to DEATH... (ref. Leviticus 20:11-21)... Why CURSE Ham's son, CANAAN?... it seems UNFAIR, but if the CURSE falls on HAM, the curse cease/stop with him when HAM dies... while if the curse was from Ham's son, CANAAN.., Noah's Prophecy will be fulfilled that HAM's Descendants will be the SERVANTS of the Descendants of Shem and Japeth... God visits the INEQUITY of their Human Fathers (Parents) upon their CHILDREN up to 3rd to 5th Generations. (ref. Deuteronomy 5:9)... We do not need the I.Q. of Einstein or Tesla to understand and comprehend this matter... unless we have CLOSED Hearts and Minds, that NO REASON is POSSIBLE other than what we believe in... or perhaps we have a very slow poor low I.Q. kind of person... Facts and Truth, Biblically and Logically speaking with some common sense... Praise be to God in Christ Jesus... Amen.

Every time I have read this scripture I have always found it to have a simple meaning. I think people have made it more than it is. I believe Noah being drunk showed there to be sin within their father and Ham wanted to expose this to his brothers. By showing his father Noah could be exposed without waking up, it proves his father’s drunkenness. This is actually an obvious and more intense sin on Ham’s part because he is dishonoring his father in the eyes of his brothers by exposing his father’s sin to them.

That is an Islamic view. Traditional Islam is an honor/shame culture. A person can sin as much as they want, but if they don't get caught there is no shame on the person or the family. This view does not make sense since the God of the bible, the God of Noah, looks at the heart and will judge accordingly. God has always used men in the bible to expose the sin of another (Samuel and Saul, and Nathan and David are just two examples). It does not make sense that Ham exposing his father's sin would be shameful, especially since Moses wrote down the account that we have and was the one whom, through God, gave God's law to the Israelites.

I believe he did get drunk, but when when we say "nakedness" i believe it refers to Noah being drunk and maybe saying blasphemous things in a drunken tirade, to which Ham came upon and saw/heard this from his father, who he views as this great holy man, now reduced in his eyes as a drunkard. He told his brothers, but his brothers being older, choose not to see their father in this light and "snitch" on Ham. It doesn't say that God cursed Canaan, it says Noah did,. It humanizes Noah in showing his flaws (being drunk, and then being petty when he is discovered). Maybe, Maybe. Its fun to ponder these thoughts.

How about a 5th possible scenario in which Noah retains his righteousness, nobody has sex with their mother or grandmother or fathers wife, nobody gets castrated. First off I believe that this whole drunken encounter scene is a demonstration of how Ham the son of Noah was a rebellious disobedient son and that the ' thing ' that he did to Noah was to blatantly disobey his strict orders in choosing a wife from among the corrupted peoples of their time before the flood. All three sons were to find women with the least amount of Nephilim DNA genetic contamination since ALL had some and they were the only family left with totally pure genes. Ham likely found a highly contaminated girl on purpose just to go against his father. The actions of Ham at the drunken escapade incident reminded Noah of how Ham had disobeyed him and actually helped to bring along the very thing they were trying to leave behind. Second, it is of my knowledge that before the flood the climate and conditions of the atmosphere were much different than today to the point where fermentation of foods did not occur at all or that it was greatly reduced. Noah may have liked to drink fruit juices and particularly grape juice all of his previous 500 years before the flood and if he was a wealthy man he may have always obtained it from someone else. After the flood, however, there was no one else to obtain it from any more so if he wanted his fruit drinks he would have to grow it and make it himself. The Bible says ' Noah BECAME an husbandman ' or farmer because he was not one before the flood. He set up a vineyard for grapes as trees were all gone and having to start over. He harvested the grapes and made juice ( wine ) that was good, however unlike before the flood when he drank wine that had been sitting in containers for a length of time it had become fermented which may have been something he never encountered before and when he drank of the ' funny tasting grape juice ' it made him intoxicated which was probably the first time in his life he ever encountered and never did again. I get tired of hearing people taking the last truly righteous man on the earth who carried out the extreme mission of building the ark boat to carry God's animals and themselves through the deluge of water, and reducing him to a worthless bum drunk whose only intent on planting a vineyard was to get wasted. 3rd when Ham saw the nakedness of his father, I believe he just SAW his father naked and acting silly as it was probably the only time he ( or anyone else for that matter ) had been so intoxicated and wasn't sure what he was doing. Taking advantage of his father's sudden condition and disrespecting him horribly his brothers covered their father up to stop Ham from harassing him. When Noah woke up he was mad at Ham for being that way with him and spewed out a reminder of what he had done ( probably quite a few years back ) and how as a result one of his sons ( Canaan ) was an obvious carrier of the dread Nephilim DNA gene and that made him cursed ( Canaan ). Canaan most likely was showing signs of carrying the gene such as having six fingers and toes. Canaan went on to become the father of the evil giant tribes that occupied the Promised Land. Many people have trouble with the Nephilim coming through the flood in any form as this would mean that God had failed with the flood. Not necessarily so as the flood wiped out a whole contaminated planet down to the last generation of pure blood people but still kept a remnant for His own reasons, such as keeping the enemy in the game, and for occupying the promised land and keeping it clear of ' normal ' people, plus the testing and judgement of His ' chosen ' people.

Critical Solution: Canaan Is Noah’s Son Scholars have long noted that the story of Noah is a composite of two separate stories: that of the Priestly document, P, and that of the Yahwist, J.[7] The story of Noah’s drunkenness and the curse of Canaan is believed to derive from the J source, partly due to style and narrative flow, but mainly because of the use of the name Yhwh in verse 26. The (extant) opening of J story does not include the names of Noah’s sons until this story but simply calls them “his sons” (7:7). It is only in the P source that the sons are introduced as Shem, Ham, and Japhet (5:32, 6:10). I suggest that in the original J text, Noah’s three sons were Shem, Japhet, and Canaan. When the redactor combined the stories, he had a problem. Both his sources had Noah with three sons, but not the same three. He solved this problem with a harmonization, adjusting the J verses 9:18 and 9:22 to fit with P’s tradition.[8] Credit: Dr. Rabbi Zev Farber

verse 24 of genesis 9 When Noah awoke from his drunkenness and learned what his youngest son had done to him, Ham was NOT the youngest 'son'...

@@amsterdamG2G Genesis 10.21 (N.I.V) "Sons were also born to shem, whose older brother was (NIV notation) japheth;..." while this apparently could also be translated as the "older brother of" it indicates that one of them was the middle child and the other the oldest. But based on how most other sons are named in what seems to be in order of lineage, and in this case Ham is always referred to in the middle position when listed, certainly adds some confusion. I think contextually in this case Genesis 9.24's mention of Noah's youngest son, in reference to Ham overrides the simple mention order. In addition, Genesis 10 reveals the generation past Noah's sons, listing their sire's (Noah's son's) in a completely different order then before; with Japheth's first, Ham's second and Shem's last. Putting this with the information from my first quote I think it cements their lineage with at least Ham being the youngest. Just my 2 cents

It’s obvious because the other brothers turned their heads and covered Noah that Ham made fun of Noah and told everyone. Let’s not make it something that it’s not. He disrespected his father which was a serious offense back then. Canaan may have been involved with the mockery as well. That probably was the first time they saw their father or anyone drunk so it was a big deal. Noah was embarrassed

When discussing Genesis 9, let Christians always denounce doctrinal racism, and antisemitism, whenever they handle this Bible topic, knowing that it has been historically used before by religious extremists to justify racial violence, and commit atrocities, and justify doctrines of racial supremacy .... Now Exodus 20:16 says; "you shall not bear false witness against your neighbour" .... Let people be careful how they make their conclusions on this topic since its possible to teach others what could cause them to bear false witness against Ham Genesis 9:22 says that, "Ham saw the nakedness of his father", the Hebrew word used in this text, "Ve'Yara" (וַיַּ֗רְא) comes from the root word "Raah" (רָאָה) which always means "to see", "to behold" and cannot to be translated as "to uncover" .... On the other hand, the Hebrew word "Galah" (גֶּלֶה) means "to uncover", "to denude" .... The two Hebrew words, "Raah" (רָאָה) and "Galah" (גֶּלֶה) have different translation meanings .... Additionally, it does not mean that whenever it is written that someone saw their fathers nakedness, then it should always be concluded that it meant they slept with the wife of their father The problem with speculative theology on Genesis 9, is that it is not immune to malice and racism, that is why whenever discussing this topic, it could be very important to firstly denounce all forms of tribalism, antisemitism and racism .. That way, the devil will not be given a chance to remain hiding in the unspoken details .... The moral lesson of this topic is not racial supremacy as some people may desire to promote a fleshly doctrine, but rather to honour ones father and mother as written in the ten commandments, thus promoting the doctrine of the Spirit of God

@@JasonAdank yes and thank you. Me myself I don't believe in this interpretation but I have noticed some Christians who take this in a negative direction building up a superiority complex thinking they are better than others, especially towards Christians from Ham an Canaans lineage cause some think we are cursed pieces of garbage but I also noticed there are good Christians like yourself who understands that we are all sinners because of Adam and that we all need Jesus.

@@CushiteChristian The simple fact is there has been endless amounts of sin from all the 'races'. Even in the family of Abraham including the sons of Jacob. Its a big list of sins, many of them equally on par with Ham's. And even King David himself, a man 'after Gods own heart" lied, and committed murder to indulge in adultery. One might ask why then was King David loved so dearly by The Lord? It wasnt because he lead a perfect life without sinning. It was because he recognized his sin and repented. In complete humility, he threw himself to the feet of God in genuine repentance. Repeatedly. THAT is why God loved him so much. And even with that love, King David STILL had to face the consequences of his choices. Some would read that the overall theme in the Old Testament is how the Hebrews failed over and over again at being the light to the world. Well thats partly true, they certainly did. But here's what the antisemites dont understand: Any race, and any person, that God would have chosen "to be the light to the world" would have suffered the same fate. Because sin is in ALL of us. Its literally genetically encoded into us to struggle against the temptations of sin throughout our worldy lives. This is what the knowledge of good and evil has done for us. Since we all have needs (some legit ones) and we are not provided for like we were in the Garden, we face the temptation of committing evil to fulfill those needs. As the Genesis 9, well I believe that the Bible interprets itself, "seeing the nakedness of your father" is explicitly spelled out in Leviticus. So, it is what it is. The first example of the human condition post flood. Certainly it wasnt the last. What some might call the 'Curse of Ham", I simply regard as a prophecy of a particular lineage. Its not like the sons of Shem or Japeth were perfect either as history has shown.

Another thing to add about seeing a man's literal nakedness, (not his wife's), is it would be rather difficult to circumcise the men of a tribe. Kind of tough to do that deed if you are blindfolded!

In the Leviticus "uncover nakedness" prohibitions, the phrase is only used to describe heterosexual intercourse. It says ,"don't lie with a man as you would a woman.". The law of first mention tells us that the first use of a word or phrase in the Bible should be the way we understand all following uses. Because Leviticus is clearly a prohibition against certain sexual unions, then the Genesis texts need to be understood the same way.

Please read this next part prayerfully and with an open mind and heart to the Truth. Let's begin. canaan was the result of incest between ham, and his mother, Noah's second wife. "And he drank of the wine, and was drunken; and he was uncovered within his tent. And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brethren without. And Shem and Japheth took a garment, and laid it upon both their shoulders, and went backward, and covered the nakedness of their father; and their faces were backward, and they saw not their father's nakedness. And Noah awoke from his wine, and knew what his younger son had done unto him. And he said, Cursed be Canaan; a servant of servants shall he be unto his brethren." Genesis 9:21‭-‬25 KJV "The nakedness of thy father's wife shalt thou not uncover: it is thy father's nakedness." Leviticus 18:8 KJV "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." Leviticus 20:11 KJV "A man shall not take his father's wife, nor discover his father's skirt." Deuteronomy 22:30 KJV "Cursed be he that lieth with his father's wife; because he uncovereth his father's skirt. And all the people shall say, Amen." Deuteronomy 27:20 KJV ham was a half brother to Shem and Japheth. Notice how he's not mentioned in Gen. 10:21... "Unto Shem also, the father of all the children of Eber, the brother of Japheth the elder, even to him were children born." Genesis 10:21 KJV And, his wife on the ark... "Which sometime were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, eight souls were saved by water." 1 Peter 3:20 KJV Was Noah's second wife, who was a kenite, mother of canaan. That's how the kenites (serpent's seed) survived the flood! "And the families of the scribes which dwelt at Jabez; the Tirathites, the Shimeathites, and Suchathites. These are the Kenites that came of Hemath, the father of the house of Rechab." 1 Chronicles 2:55 KJV It all makes perfect sense. Noah, his wife, his three sons and their wives, eight souls, were saved. ham's wife was actually his own mother, Noah's second wife, mother of ham, and canaan. So, canaan was a kenite! Writings of Abraham: CHAPTER 11 1. "AND when Noah was four hundred and fifty years old, he begat a son and he called his name Japheth. 2. Forty­two years later he begat another son of her who was the mother of Japheth, and he called his name Shem. 3. Eight years later Noah begat a son of his wife Naamah, who was of the seed of Cain, and he called his name Ham, for he said, Through him will the curse be preserved in the land." Extra-canonical texts seem to support this Truth. "Of every clean beast thou shalt take to thee by sevens, the male and his female: and of beasts that are not clean by two, the male and his female. Of clean beasts, and of beasts that are not clean, and of fowls, and of every thing that creepeth upon the earth, There went in two and two unto Noah into the ark, the male and the female, as God had commanded Noah." Genesis 7:2‭, ‬8‭-‬9 KJV ham and his mother were the 2 unclean (kenites), among the humans, on the ark. Here's an interesting insight... "Thou art the Lord the God, who didst choose Abram, and broughtest him forth out of Ur of the Chaldeans, and gavest him the name of Abraham; And foundest his heart faithful before thee, and madest a covenant with him to give the land of the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Jebusites, and the Girgashites, to give it, I say, to his seed, and hast performed thy words; for thou art righteous:" Nehemiah 9:7‭-‬8 KJV These names above, here, and the names below, are mostly the same... "And the sons of Ham; Cush, and Mizraim, and Put, and Canaan. And Canaan begat Sidon his firstborn, and Heth, And the Jebusite, and the Amorite, and the Girgashite, And the Hivite, and the Arkite, and the Sinite, And the Arvadite, and the Zemarite, and the Hamathite: and afterward were the families of the Canaanites spread abroad." Genesis 10:6, 15‭-‬18 KJV canaan was of the serpents seed. Father literally promised Abraham the land that the serpent's seed was inhabiting... "And Noah awoke from his wine, and knew what his younger son had done unto him. And he said, Cursed be Canaan; a servant of servants shall he be unto his brethren. And he said, Blessed be the Lord God of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant. God shall enlarge Japheth, and he shall dwell in the tents of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant." Genesis 9:24‭-‬27 KJV
