This genealogical record underscores the unity of humanity, tracing all nations back to a common ancestor, Noah. Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Persons / Places / Events 1.

Our faithfulness or lack thereof can influence generations to come.(4) Shem, Ham, and Japheth.--There is no doubt that Ham means black, or sunburnt, and Japheth (Heb., Yepheth) is probably the fair-skinned. Shem has been compared with an Assyrian word meaning brownish (sa'mu). Thus the three names appear to allude to differences of racial complexion. 1Chronicles 1:5-23 are an abridgment of Genesis 10. The proper names represent, not persons, but peoples and countries. By adding them all together, the old Jewish interpreters made a total of seventy nations for the world.
