31 - Les Feldick Bible Study Lesson 2 - Part 3 - Book 3 - Babel, "False Gods"

https://lesfeldickbiblestudy.com LESSON 2 * PART 3 * BOOK 3 BABEL: FALSE GODS GENESIS 9:1 – 12:1-2 Moments. It can happen in the business world. Well, you remember then that the three sons of Noah, who came out of the Ark with their families, then become the parents of the three great classifications of people that then overspread the earth. A lot of the original inventions came from the Hamitic people. The sons of Ham ended up primarily in the land of Canaan and the sons of Shem out there in the Middle East, and I kind of prefer to put the Oriental peoples out of the line of Shem although I may be wrong in that. But anyway those three basic groups of people come from these three sons of Noah. Now then if you’ll come on over then into chapter 10 and I want to not take every verse word for word, the sons of Japheth are given there in verses 2 and 3 and then when you come down to verse 6, we pick up the sons of Ham. Japheth are listed first there in the first three verses or four, then in verse 6 we come to the genealogy of Hamitic people Genesis 10:6 "And the sons of Ham; Cush, and Mizraim, and Phut, and Canaan."‘ and those sons were Cush, Mizraim and Put and Canaan.’ And then in the other verse I want you to pick up is verse 8: Genesis 10:8 Now there are the three sons. Japheth in verses 1,3,4 and 5, the sons and the genealogy of the Hamites. And then picking it up in verse 21, the offspring of Shem. Terah, the father of Abraham came out of the line of Shem. Genesis 10:25 "And unto Eber (who was in the line of Shem) 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." "For it was during that man’s lifetime that the earth was divided." Come back if you will then to verse 8 where "Cush, a son of Ham, has a son and he calls him Nimrod." As a "Nimrod." Nimrod was not a hunter of wild animals. Nimrod was a hunter of fellow human beings. Genesis 10:9a "He was mighty hunter before the LORD:…" kingdom…" It’s probably not fitting word, but nevertheless he puts together a kingdom, as the Bible calls it, and he brings the people under his control. Genesis 10:10b " the beginning of his kingdom was Babel, or the Tower of Babel, in the land of Babylon. Genesis 10:11a Now you remember that Ninevah was one of the great cities of the ancients. Who built it? The Hamitic people out of the same beginners of the city of Babel, and then also some other cities. Counterfeiter. So through this wicked woman Semiramis, and her offspring Tamar, by satanic influence, she dreams up the whole idea of her son being a "son of the gods." And so it’s a copy of course, of Christ as the Son of God and Mary the virgin mother. Because Semiramis claims that this child did not come from human contact but that he was a son of god. Now let’s look at the text again if you will, in chapter 11 beginning with verse 1. Genesis 11:1 Genesis 11:2-3 Genesis 11:4a "And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven;…" Well by a worship. And so what they are instituting here is a false, anti-God, ungodly system of worship whereby Satan no doubt inspired them to think that they could usurp the very heaven of God Himself. Now there again, is how Satan has adulterated something, which originally was in God’s program. And I think that before the flood that Adam and the early believers understood the Word of God, not from the written page, but in the stars. Revelation 17:4 You take some of the great religions of the world, their wealth tonight is unbelievable. Revelation 17:5 It’s Babylon. It’s Babel. Genesis 11:4 lest we be (what’s the word?) scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth." And what had God instructed them earlier? "Scatter." I don’t care what God says, we’re going to stay right here. Genesis 11:5-6a "And the LORD came down and He looked at the city and the tower, which the children of men builded. 6. And the LORD (or Jehovah) said, Behold, the people is one,..." Now remember they’ve already been segmented genealogically, but they’re still just basically one people, they’re one race. Genesis 11:5b A breaking down of language barriers. Genesis 11:6c Genesis 11:7-8a Now in the Hebrew the word scattered is a lot stronger. Confusion. Because, the world tonight is nothing but a mass of confusion. The confusion within society, that’s babble. Just mass confusion. #LesFeldick #BibleStudy #Bible
