Genesis 10:24
“And Arphaxad begat Salah; and Salah begat Eber.”
KJV
Read in Genesis 10Meaning
Arphaxad fathers Salah, and Salah fathers Eber. 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.
