Prayer: -

Last week I laid the foundation of this lesson establishing the fact that Black People, especially the so-called Arican Americans have very little to no understanding or a total misunderstanding of who they are, their heritage, lineage, and culture because it has been stolen, re-written, restructured, twisted, manipulated and formed into what racist ideology, white washed theology, humanism, and philosophy says it should be. I established the fact according to the Bible that the flood of Noah killed all but 8 people, Noah his wife, their 3 sons and their wives. The number 8 represents new beginnings in scripture and from Noah’s 3 sons Shem, Ham, and Japheth the entire earth was repopulated after the flood. I also established the fact that Brown skinned people because of the dominant brown gene produce many shades of brown skinned people, but white skinned people without that brown dominate gene it is impossible to produce brown skinned people; therefore, Noah and his sons were brown skinned, most likely different shades of brown, but nonetheless brown skinned people. I used the example of me and my 2 brothers how we come from the same Mother and Father yet the 3 of us are different shades of brown and of the 9 grandchildren we produced there are 9 different shades of brown and of the great grands so far, which there are 6 great grandchildren, there are 6 different shades of brown so far. I state that because within the brown people there are people that range from really dark skinned to albino.

However, when you gather the different shades of white skinned people, they pretty much produce the exact same results.

Ok so we understand according to Genesis 11:1 that the people were one then in Genesis 11:6-9 the Bible says “And the Lord said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do. Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another's speech. So the Lord scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off to build the city. Therefore is the name of it called Babel; because the Lord did there confound the language of all the earth: and from thence did the Lord scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth”.

Now understand that the land had been divided among Noah’s but because they desired to build a name for themselves rebelled against God and started the Tower of Babel and God confounded their language and dispersed them throughout the land.

This is the division of the Land.

I want to start with Ham, not the oldest but when it comes to building civilizations it is his descendants that are accredited for the first civilizations. Genesis 10:6-8 says, “And the sons of Ham; Cush, and Mizraim, and Phut, and Canaan. And the sons of Cush; Seba, and Havilah, and Sabtah, and Raamah, and Sabtechah: and the sons of Raamah; Sheba, and Dedan. And Cush begat Nimrod: he began to be a mighty one in the earth. He was a mighty hunter before the Lord: wherefore it is said, Even as Nimrod the mighty hunter before the Lord. And the beginning of his kingdom was Babel, and Erech, and Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar”. Jubilees 9:1 says, “And Ham divided amongst his sons, and the first portion came forth for Cush towards the east, and to the west of him for Mizraim, and to the west of him for Put, and to the west of him [and to the west thereof] on the sea for Canaan”. It is imperative that you understand the Book of Jubilees goes into greater detail concerning the division of the land by Noah to his 3 sons and bring out the fact that Noah doesn’t act on his own will but on the divine guidance of God, by the casting of lots it ensured that the division of the land that each territory was assigned by the Will of God confirming the fact that it was not mere migration that occurred but was in fact the predestined plan of God from the beginning written on the tablets in heaven.

Sons of Ham – The Hamites - Cush, and Mizraim, and Phut, and Canaan. From these four brothers we get what we call today the Africans. Genesis 10:7-10 “And the sons of Cush; Seba, and Havilah, and Sabtah, and Raamah, and Sabtechah And Cush begat Nimrod: he began to be a mighty one in the earth. He was a mighty hunter before the Lord: wherefore it is said, Even as Nimrod the mighty hunter before the Lord. And the beginning of his kingdom was Babel, and Erech, and Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar”.
