Genesis 10:13
“And Mizraim begat Ludim, and Anamim, and Lehabim, and Naphtuhim,”
KJV
Read in Genesis 10Meaning
Mizraim's descendants include Ludim, Anamim, Lehabim, and Naphtuhim. The verse advances the chapter's ordered account of post-flood peoples.
Read carefully
This verse is one link in the Table of Nations, where personal names can represent ancestors, clans, or peoples within the chapter's ancient genealogical framework.
Reflection
Genesis 10 presents human diversity as developing within one post-flood human family, while preserving distinct peoples, places, and lines of descent.
