Chapter 10

"Now these are the generations of the sons of Noah, Shem, Ham, and Japheth: and unto them were sons born after the flood." (Genesis 10:1)

<1>"And unto them were sons born": "Son" always means "likeness."  So "the generation of the sons of Noah" which was explained to mean symbolically the five different types of humans in the different levels of evolution -- Shem (Brahmins), Ham (Shudras and Ksattriyas) and Japheth (Vipras and Vaeshyas) -- begat "sons."  <2>Therefore it was the generation after Noah that consisted of these three types.  They are the sons of Shem, Japheth, and Ham.

 

"The sons of Japheth; Gomer, and Magog, and Madai, and Javan, and Tubal, and Meshech, and Tiras." (Genesis 10:2)
"And the sons of Gomer; Ashkenaz, and Riphath, and Togarmah." (Genesis 10:3)
"And the sons of Javan; Elishah, and Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim." (Genesis 10:4)
"By these were the isles of the Gentiles divided in their lands; every one after his tongue, after their families, in their nations." (Genesis 10:5)

<3>"By these were the isles of the Gentiles divided in their lands" means that the sons of Japheth (Vipras and Vaeshyas, or intellectuals and business-oriented people) were created (Gentiles).

<4>"Every one after his tongue": These people understand each other very well, because all are in the same level of consciousness.

<5>"After their families, in their nations" means they are all one family on earth in different levels of consciousness ("after their families").  They create a nation as intellectuals and businessmen.

<6>Also this verse means that many different nations with different languages were created by those who were saved by Noah after the flood.

 

"And the sons of Ham; Cush, and Mizraim, and Phut, and Canaan." (Genesis 10:6)
"And the sons of Cush; Seba, and Havilah, and Sabtah, and Raamah, and Sebtechah: and the sons of Raamah; Sheba, and Dedan." (Genesis 10:7)

<7>The name Raamah is similar to the East Indian name Rahma.  The similarity of the names in the Bible (also Sarah and Saravati, etc.) is further evidence of a link between the original Bible language and the ancient language.  Sanskrit is the spiritual language of the Hindus.

 

"And Cush begat Nimrod: he began to be a mighty one in the earth." (Genesis 10:8)
"He was a mighty hunter before the Lord: wherefore it is said, Even as Nimrod the mighty hunter before the Lord." (Genesis 10:9)
"And the beginning of his kingdom was Babel, and Erech, and Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar." (Genesis 10:10)

<8>The period of the phase of the mighty warriors started, "He was a mighty hunter before the Lord."  The period of domination of warriors (Ksattriyas) began, and they started the empires and kingdoms.

<9>As it was described, in general, humans can be categorized into five groups: workers (Shudras), warriors or courageous ones (Ksattriyas), intellectuals (Vipras), businessmen (Vaeshyas), and seers (Brahmins).

<10>The dominating class can be traced in the course of history.  First there was the domination of the mighty men of war (Ksattriyas) who established their domination through their physical abilities and skillfulness in war (purely physical strength over others).  They exploited the Shudras by their might.

<11>The second domination was by the intellectuals, who through their administrative abilities and intellectual understanding of the realities of life, exploited the warriors (because their administrative abilities were needed by the Ksattriyas) and masses (through creating superstitions and false superiority ideas in society).

<12>The third domination was of businessmen through their control of the basic necessities of human needs.  <13>They exploited the rest (Shudras, Ksattriyas, and Vipras) through using all of them for their benefit and making them workers for commercial rewards.

<14>The fifth class, the seers, never were exploited because they would never become so attached to this external world that others would be able to exploit them.  They always either escaped the society by being satisfied with the minimum or stood against the exploiters.

<15>However, the true leaders are those who have all the qualities of the five types and understand them all.  <16>Then they become classless and are able to handle all of them on their own terms and guide humanity toward the goal (for more detail, read The Kingdom Of Heaven On Earth and Commentaries on Prophecies in Daniel, Period of Intellectual Domination).

<17>In verses 8-10 above, the period of the domination of the warrior class (Ksattriyas) started.

 

"Out of that land went forth Asshur, and builded Nineveh, and the city Rehoboth, and Calah," (Genesis 10:11)
"And Resen between Nineveh and Calah: the same is a great city." (Genesis 10:12)

<18>The kings started to build great cities and bring others under their control by their might and armies.  They created empires for themselves by exploiting the masses.  These all are the sons of Ham.

 

"And Mizraim begat Ludim, and Anamim, and Lehabim, and Naphtuhim," (Genesis 10:13)
"And Pathrusim, and Casluhim, (out of whom came Philistim,) and Caphtorim." (Genesis 10:14)
"And Canaan begat Sidon his firstborn, and Heth," (Genesis 10:15)
"And the Jebusite, and the Amorite, and the Girgasite," (Genesis 10:16)
"And the Hivite, and the Arkite, and the Sinite," (Genesis 10:17)
"And the Arvadite, and the Zemarite, and the Hamathite: and afterward were the families of the Canaanites spread abroad." (Genesis 10:18)
"And the border of the Canaanites was from Sidon, as thou comest to Gerar, unto Gaza; as thou goest, unto Sodom, and Gomorrah, and Admah, and Zeboim, even unto Lasha." (Genesis 10:19)
"These are the sons of Ham, after their families, after their tongues, in their countries, and in their nations." (Genesis 10:20)

<19>So the generations of Ham (the Shudras and Ksattriyas; workers and warriors) were created.  They made up a family (on earth) with their special tongues (they understood each other well), in their countries (each in his territory) and in their nations (with still many different types).

<20>Also it means that more nations with different languages were created.

 

"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)

<21>Shem is the symbol of spiritual people (true spiritualists; the great incarnations).  That is why it is emphasized that, "even to him were children born."  That is, that not all spiritual people should become renunciates.  <22>Also usually it is rarer for highly spiritual people to have many children.

<23>Also the emphasis that Shem was "the father of all the children of Eber" shows the importance of the children of Eber in the history of the sons of Shem.  The children were Peleg -- "for in his days was the earth divided" (Genesis 10:25) -- and Joktan.

 

"The children of Shem; Elam, and Asshur, and Arphaxad, and Lud, and Aram." (Genesis 10:22)
"And the children of Aram; Uz, and Hul, and Gether, and Mash." (Genesis 10:23)
"And Arphaxad begat Salah; and Salah begat Eber." (Genesis 10:24)
"And unto Eber were born two sons: the name of one was Peleg; for in his days was the earth divided; and his brother's name was Joktan." (Genesis 10:25)

<24>So Shem, the symbol of the spiritual types (Brahmin class) or those who were entrusted to preserve and learn sacred Scriptures after Noah, also became a class among others.

<25>However, in the time of the children of Eber (Peleg and Joktan) a great event happened.  Before then and after the flood of Noah, God had created the earth in such a way that there were few lands isolated from the mainland.  That is, the dry land on earth was accessible to the new generations which were created after the flood.

<26>But in the time of the children of Eber, after humans had scattered all over the earth, "and from thence did the Lord scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth" (Genesis 11:9), then the earth was divided.

<27>This division of the earth happened because God had a great Plan for the future.  He wanted to keep some parts of the earth isolated to be used later on for a great purpose.  The purpose for this event is explained in the book Children of Abram (Abraham), All Prophecies Are Fulfilled.

<28>The destruction of their lands forced many Great Souls of the new generation to leave and go to other lands.  They helped many civilizations to accelerate their progress.  <29>That is why we find great structures and civilizations in some parts of the world that were constructed at the time when the natives were very backward, such as in Egypt, South America, Central America, and other places.  This accelerated human civilization.

 

"And Joktan begat Almodad, and Sheleph, and Hazarmaveth, and Jerah," (Genesis 10:26)
"And Hadoram, and Uzal, and Diklah," (Genesis 10:27)
"And Obal, and Abimael, and Sheba," (Genesis 10:28)
"And Ophir, and Havilah, and Jobab: all these were the sons of Joktan." (Genesis 10:29)
"And their dwelling was from Mesha, as thou goest unto Sephar a mount of the east." (Genesis 10:30)

<30>So the sons of Eber, like the sons of Ham and Japheth, were also scattered abroad.

 

"These are the sons of Shem, after their families, after their tongues, in their lands, after their nations." (Genesis 10:31)

<31>So the generations of spiritual people (the seers) also increased.  They became a family on earth, who would understand each other with their special tongue, in different levels ("in their lands"), and they became a nation.

<32>Also it means that further races and languages were created.

 

"These are the families of the sons of Noah, after their generations, in their nations: and by these were the nations divided in the earth after the flood." (Genesis 10:32)

<33>Many races and nations were created on the earth.  After the flood of Noah, because the earth had not yet been divided, these people settled all over the world, especially when God "scattered them abroad upon the face of all the earth" (Genesis 11:9).  They were scattered even more when their land was destroyed and they were forced to leave.

<34>The point is that Japheth, Shem, and Ham are the different types of humans in different levels of evolution.  Therefore, to try to find who is the ancestor of whom will create confusion.  The races were not from these symbolic three sons of Noah.  <35>The races were created for gaining different experiences in each race for further evolutionary progress, just as the whole universe was created to allow man to go through different levels of experiences.  So the purpose of the races after the flood is the same.

<36>However, intermarriage between races will create new bodies with new biological set-ups for new experiences for those who are ready now to go through those kinds of experiences.  <37>Also with these new teachings of creation and history, man should understand the realities behind this universe and realize that God is All, and also, man should not misuse his powers.  So intermarriage, acceptance of one language for the whole world, and following God's Laws will cause man to destroy all narrowness of the mind and prejudices about the differences of race, creed, and language.  <38>Then the Kingdom Of Heaven On Earth (KOHOE) will be created, and all will accelerate their progress toward self-realization and perfection.  <39>Then the Kingdom Of Heaven Within (KOHW) also will be established.  The Kingdom Of Heaven In Heaven (KOHIH) has already been created by God, so when the Kingdom Of Heaven within and without is created also, then His Will, will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
