Genesis 10:25
“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.”
KJV
Read in Genesis 10Meaning
Eber has two sons, Peleg and Joktan; Peleg's name is linked with a division of the earth in his days.
Read carefully
The note about the earth being divided is brief and debated; the verse itself does not explain the event in detail or require a single later reconstruction.
Reflection
The genealogy marks a remembered division without satisfying every later question, inviting readers to distinguish what the text says from speculative reconstruction.
