In order to properly understand many important parts of the Bible it is essential that you fully understand the concept of the first born blessing.
The Hebrew firstborn blessing is akin to the formalized reading of the family will just prior to the passing away of the father.
It was customary for the firstborn to receive both of the following:
1) A double-portion of the father’s wealth
and
2) the authority to rule over the family.
A double-portion meant that the first born son received at least double the amount given to any other son.
In addition, the firstborn was never a female.
A married couple could have 10 daughters and then one son born after all of those daughters and that one son would be considered the firstborn and receive a double portion of the family’s inheritance and the ruling authority over that family.
What’s interesting is that in Noah’s pronouncement of the curses and blessings, we have a precursory firstborn blessing being proclaimed prior to it eventually becoming a formalized biblical concept in the Bible.
However, what is unique in this case is that the first born blessing was split between Shem and Japheth.
“May God extend Japheth’s territory;
may Japheth live in the tents of Shem,
-Genesis 9:27
From the above verse, we can see that Shem received the ruling authority and Japheth received the equivalent of a double-portion of the wealth (of the world so to speak).
Note that Japheth’s blessing is dependent on Shem.
In other words, Japheth’s descendants would only prosper when their relationship with Shem was in a harmonious state.
Again, Japheth is the ancestor of most of the European peoples including the Romans and the Greeks.
Shem would become the Hebrews (as well as the Arabs, and most of the Asian races).
Historically, speaking we can see a direct correlation between the prosperity of the Japhethic nations and how they treated Israel (a Shemitic nation).
Trust me, America’s prosperity has all to do with the blessing upon Japheth.
Finally, we will see this splitting up of the firstborn blessing occur again later in Genesis when Jacob blesses his 12 sons who will eventually grow to become the 12 tribes of Israel.
NEXT TIME WE WILL BEGIN GENESIS CHAPTER 10
Karen Snyder says
How can most of the European’s come from Japheth & not all. ether they come from him, or they don’t.
richoka says
Karen, we are talking about a long, long time ago. It is impossible to know with pinpointed accuracy which races in existence today specifically originated from Shem, Japheth and Ham. So I have to speak in generalities. For the most part, the European races come from Japheth. Having said that, honestly, I would think we probably all have strains of the blood of each son flowing through our veins. Thanks for reading. Shalom!

Kofi Ahenkora Asiamah says
All nations on earth came from one of the sons of Noah so do not be confused. Shem is the father of all Arabs and Sub-Saharan African Countries. Ham is the father of all the black race Egypt, Ethiopia, Libya and Canaan. Japheth is the father of all Europeans. now to understand this even more the Bible have given a perfect explanation to categorization of nations.
Genesis 25:25 Context
22And the children struggled together within her; and she said, If it be so, why am I thus? And she went to enquire of the LORD. 23And the LORD said unto her, Two nations are in thy womb, and two manner of people shall be separated from thy bowels; and the one people shall be stronger than the other people; and the elder shall serve the younger. 24And when her days to be delivered were fulfilled, behold, there were twins in her womb. 25And the first came out red, all over like an hairy garment; and they called his name Esau. 26And after that came his brother out, and his hand took hold on Esau’s heel; and his name was called Jacob: and Isaac was threescore years old when she bare them. 27And the boys grew: and Esau was a cunning hunter, a man of the field; and Jacob was a plain man, dwelling in tents. 28And Isaac loved Esau, because he did eat of his venison: but Rebekah loved Jacob.
Esau came out red and was named Esau because he was red. Jacob was named Jacob because he held on to the heel of his brother. but Jacobs color was not mention, but the clue is if he was red like his brother his name would have been Esau-Jacob which means red who hold heels so clearly Jacob was not red but black.
1. God said two nations are in your womb – The womb represent the world; – and so there will only two nations in the world.
2. One people will be stronger than the other people – meaning the Elder being Esau and his descendants will be strong than the descendants of Jacob
3. The struggle between Esau and Jacob in their mothers womb is the struggle that will go on between descendants of Esau and descendants of Jacob.
Now who are Easu descendants from the meaning of the above Esau became Edome whiles Jacob became Israel so in this world what God was telling Rebekah was that there will be two nations the nation of Esau and the nation of Jacob.
There are many nations in the world but all nations are categorized into two between Esau and Jacob.
1. All nations whose peoples are red or whites be shade belong to Esau and are Edomites
2 All nations whose people are black by shades belong to Jacob
Now we have united seed between Shem and Japheth who are now [Arabs] and we have a united seed between Shem and Ham [So blacks in Ethiopia and Egypt] are those seed who are all part of Jacob seed. Sons of Jacob, Joseph married Egyptian, David had Solomon who was a Cannite woman, Judah married a Cannite woman. Most Israelites intermarried Egyptian women when being slaves in Egypt.
So to answer your topic Noah splits the “Firstborn Blessing” between Shem & Japheth. Noah did not split any blessing between Shem and Japheth because the Hamite were a powerful people which all the world wisdom, whether science, architecture, construction, mathematics, astrology all came from them. So God united the seed of Ham and Shem by giving Abraham a destiny name from Abram to Abra – Ham connection Abram’s name to Ham’s. God enlarging Japheth is not actually a blessing – because the Hebrew word used for enlarge is to deceive Japheth. So God is to deceive Japheth into thinking that the world belongs to them so they should expand. You can agree with me that North America was not Japheth territory as also Australia these are lands grabbed by Japheth’s descendants i.e. Europeans who embarked on expansionist policy of grabbing foreign lands to fulfill Noah’s Prophecy.
Japheth will live in the tents of Shem – means is to live in the lands of Shem. Is Ashkenazi Jews who are descendants of Japheth living in the land which belong to Shem in Israel ? is Japheth not living in South Africa, Zimbabwe, Namibia ?. Again Noah’s Prophecy fullfiled. So Noah did not split any blessing between Shem and Japheth that is not what the scripture is saying.
Theresa Johnson says
Precisely!!!!
Namina says
I have looked into this thoroughly long ago. There are 3 main and easy to see reasons that you are incorrect, that I hope all who read this will put on ears to hear.
1. Israel was promised “a land flowing with milk and honey”. Not only are dark skinned people 100% lactose INTOLERANT, but only a small portion of Eurasians are significantly lactose TOLERANT. The portion that was promised a land flowing with this food item were the Israelites specifically. There is only one population on this earth who can digest milk, these are Northwestern Europeans specifically. Modern so-called “Jews” can’t even digest milk, and BHI adherents make the same excuses they do. Also, good luck getting honey from African killer bees. Every drop of honey you have ever enjoyed had been gathered from friendly European honeybees.
2. Jacob and Esau were twins. If you believe Esau is white, you must also believe that Jacob is white. You have to actually kind of look like someone in order to impersonate them. (For passersby, I am referring to the Words of Jesus when he said, “I know the lies of those who say they are Jewish and are not but are of the synagogue of satan” when he wrote to the Smyrnans, one of the two churches who God was pleased with out of the 7 churches of Revelation, the other being the Philadelphians, who “rejected the Nicoliatans”, which was also a group of those who say they are Jewish and are not. The other 5 churches did not have this, and God was displeased with them.)
3. If you still somehow believe that the lost tribes of Israel are a lactose intolerant people who are a completely different race than their twin nation, Esau, you must explain why Esau is helping your race attack Esau. They send you weapons, they support your propaganda with their algorithms and mass media, they support you with their policies, they even speak openly about how they have been working to genocide the entire European race, and manipulating every other race into helping them do so.
1. Why is Esau helping you defeat… Esau?
2. Why can’t anyone other than this particular segment of “Esau” even digest milk?
3. Why would these two very important, prophetic, twin nations be anything other than twin nations?
Again, I have looked into this thoroughly, so paroting the main BHI talking points is not going to do anything. The answer to each one is so obvious, especially when all evidence for white Israel is viewed in total along with the current glob political climate- which is inarguably anti-European, thus confirming the words of our Father regarding not only the Age of Esau when the beast would attempt to genocide the Israelites (the fleeing woman of revelation and her offspring), but also when he said, “the peoples of the earth will think they are doing good to kill God’s people”. Significant and growing portions of “Jews”, Muslims, Africans, Chinese, and Hispanics are all dead set on exterminating the white race, which is logically the only race that can qualify as Israel. Look around, this is the prophecied Age of Esau, and you are seeing exactly what you would expect to see Esau doing to Israel in such an age.
I know you think Europeans have a purely evil history, but we have actually extended more service to other races than any other race has to another, it has just been taken for granted so no one realizes. Many of the atrocities attributed to Europeans were perpetrated by our imposters. For example, the American slave trade was run by who? Not the run of the mill European. Who owned 90% of the slaves in America? Not the run of the mill European. This has been coming to light, but just take that now and put it together with everything else I have said. These Edomites literally wrote books about how they brought Africans to America with the intention of using you at a future date to slaughter as many Europeans as possible to help bring about the “Jewish messiah”.
There is a reason only white people feel guilty as a race when we haven’t done any evil that any other race hasn’t done. It’s because we are in fact guilty as a race, Israel is backsliding and has brought other nations into sin when we were to bring them out of it, though we often did that too when we brought them Christianity, but not because we are great, only for the sake of providing witness to God. I hope all this helps you start to see a more complete picture than what you were fed in school and through media. Europeans aren’t perfect, Israel isn’t supposed to be perfect, but they are supposed to be “colonists” or rather sojourners. We “colonize” because we must continuously escape Esau who is always in pursuit of us as prophecied and has thus been kicked out of our countries 109 times that I know of.
I encourage you to think for yourself and reject the propaganda that has been forced upon you by Esau, the ruler of our modern age. He’s just trying to get you to do his dirty work. They stole your history too, that way they could get you desperate so you would believe them and easily do as the religion they gave you commands, which is awfully convenient for their “jewish” religion wherein they need to exterminate “Europeans”. (Yeah, I know what BHI adherents talk about doing to supposed white “Edomites”). I implore you to consider accepting the real Messiah, even though he is not of your people. All who have pure intentions to join the kingdom of God will be grafted in, an even greater blessing than the regrafting of the natural branch.
Israel, yes of the white race, is nowhere near as righteous as our creator, but we are the only race who has spread the Word across the world as was prophecied of Israel, provided hospitals and schools wher we went, owned the seaports of our enemies, and who have received literally dozens of the blessings prophecied for Israel. BHI proponents rarely talk about these prophecied blessings, only the prophecies curses, because your people have not received any of those particular blessings whereas mine clearly have. All people are cursed, but because of the Esau-induced modern political climate, everyone underestimates the amount of curses the white race has endured, which are just as prophecied as well.
So you see, I get why you think Africans are Israelites. I even see why you think Europeans are all Edomites. At least up until the point at which you have read this comment.
“James, to the 12 tribes which have been scattered abroad, greetings”
This letter was written to the Greeks.
You not only must prove Greeks were actually black due to this testimony from James, you must prove the Gimry/Cymry/Cimmerians/Scythians and all related peoples were black due to the testimony of the Behistun Rock, along with providing viable answers to the 3 questions above. This cannot be done by any means.
You do not have to be an Israelite to be blessed for eternity, but you do have to be open to the fact that the Messiah may not be of your race. I was, that’s why I looked into BHI so hard. I found Christian Identity way later. Have you ever watched even a single Christian Identity sermon? Go ahead and type in “Christian Identity” and see what Google gives you, then look up “Black Hebrew Israelism” and see what Edomite Google is perfectly willing to invite its users towards. Then recall how that makes perfect sense considering that Esau has stated he will attempt to wipe out his twin nation using the peoples of the earth, perfectly aligning with biblical prophecy. Then, attempt to drink just one glass of milk, and see if you still believe you were blessed with a land flowing with the stuff. Don’t let people make you into such a fool. Face the truth, which is that you will be greatly blessed if you reject the lies and do the work of the Kingdom. You have more to be proud of than I do as I am of the natural branch which should have thrived yet did not, while you can be grafted in despite not even being of the natural branch! You do not need to continue down this path which will only curse you, when an eternity in the kingdom awaits you and all those who reject “the lies of those who say they are Jewish and are not but are of the synagogue of satan”.
What more can I say that will help you to see through these lies? Would you (or anyone here) be willing to watch some documentaries?
Kofi Ahenkora Asiamah says
When you see someone who lacks knowledge it is a good gesture to help that person get knowledge and see reality. What you wrote as reply to my submission is absolutely a fabricated lies which have no bases in the Scripture. Lets is what the Bible says to enable us see the reality and truth in the Scripture
“God has made of one blood all peoples of the earth” – Acts 17:26
So we know that Adam and Eve Blood has God made all peoples on the earth.
Genesis 3:20, KJV: And Adam called his wife’s name Eve; because she was the mother of all living.
Now based on this two scriptures lets ask a simple question. If God made all people by one blood i.e Africans, European, Americans, Asians, and Middle East people through the blood of Adam and his wife Eve as the Scripture says then what race was Adam and Eve ?
To answer this question let’s use reality to answer. Can a White Woman and a White man give birth to a Black Baby ? The answer is a Big No ! if this answer is far from the Truth then we will have Evidence in America, Europe, and Asia. On the flip side lets as the same question, Can a black woman and a black man give birth to a white Baby ? The answer is a Big YES ! since we are dealing with reality and truth this is evidential sources: https://www.essence.com/entertainment/tatyana-ali-bel-air-season-2-interview/
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/white-baby-shocks-black-parents-medically-possible/
So the evidence is so clear that the first race on earth that is Adam and Eve was a black race since their blood all people on earth were made. for a more evidential based about this lets look at a gist of truth in the Book of Enoch which Europeans removed from the Bible Cannon.
The Book of Enoch
1. And after some days my son Methuselah took a wife for his son Lamech, and she became pregnant by him and bore a son.
2. And his body was white as snow and red as the blooming of a rose, and the hair of his head and his long locks were white as wool, and his eyes beautiful. And when he opened his eyes, he lighted up the whole house like the sun, and the whole house was very bright.
3. And thereupon he arose in the hands of the midwife, opened his mouth, and †conversed with† the Lord of righteousness.
4. And his father Lamech was afraid of him and fled, and came to his father Methuselah.
5. And he said unto him: ‘I have begotten a strange son, diverse from and unlike man, and resembling the sons of the God of heaven; and his nature is different and he is not like us…….
From verse verse 2 “his body is white as snow…..” and his hair and long locks were white as wool
verse 5 ” l have begotten a strange son diverse from and unlike man …”
” and resembling the sons of the God of heaven ”
Who are the sons of the God of Heaven ? Angels !!
the same verse 5 says “….his nature is different and his not like us”
Now the Book of Enoch has given us the hidden secret that when Lamech who is the grandson of Enoch the 7th man after Adam gave birth to Noah. He was white and he told his father Methuselah that his son Noah, i.e from verse 5.”……….his nature is different, and his not like us” clear shows that from Adam to Lamech they were all Blacks until now was born who also resembles the sons of the fallen Angles.
This tells us that white folks are seed between black women and fallen Angels. This is the secret from the Book of Enoch that white folks do not want us to know but now the Book of Enoch is widely available on the internet. Truth cannot be hidden.
Now you claim Europeans are Israel, how possible is that ?
Revelation 12:1 refer to Israel as the woman. The woman which is also a reference to EVe in Genesis 3:15 “And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and hers; he will crush your head, and you will strike his heel.”
Lets see what Revelation 12:4 “……..The dragon stood in front of the woman who was about to give birth, so that it might devour her child the moment he was born. 5 She gave birth to a son, a male child, who “will rule all the nations with an iron scepter”
We know the seed of the woman was Jesus Christ who came from the Woman who is Israel
Who is the identified as the dragon Revelation 12:9 ” The great dragon was hurled down—that ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, who leads the whole world astray ”
The Devil or Satan who is also an Angel is being referred to as the dragon. What did Genesis 3:15 says “l will put enmity between the seed of the Woman and the seed of the Dragon”
Who are the seeds of the Dragon ? Revelation 12:3 “Then another sign appeared in heaven: an enormous red dragon with seven heads and ten horns and seven crowns on its heads.
Seven Heads represent 7 kingdoms and ten horns represent 10 powerful nations. This is the composition of the Dragon.This is a representation of the Roman Empire during the time of Jesus Christ the Roman empire was the sole empire in the World during the time of Jesus Christ.
New Living Translation
Then they will hand him over to the Romans to be mocked, flogged with a whip, and crucified. But on the third day he will be raised from the dead.”
Mark 10:33 ESV
Saying, “See, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be delivered over to the chief priests and the scribes, and they will condemn him to death and deliver him over to the Gentiles.
Who are the Gentiles as indicated in Mark 10:33 ? The Romans. Are the Romans Europeans ? Yes
Were Britain, Portugal, Spain, Germany, France, Denmark, Netherlands, Belgium, Greece, Italy part of the Roman Empire ? Yes
Did they Killed Jesus the Messiah as Mark said they the Gentiles will Kill him ? Yes
Who are the Gentiles ? Genesis 10:2 The sons of Japheth; Gomer, and Magog, and Madai, and Javan, and Tubal, and Meshech, and Tiras.
3 And the sons of Gomer; Ashkenaz, and Riphath, and Togarmah.
4 And the sons of Javan; Elishah, and Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim.
5 By these were the isles of the Gentiles divided in their lands; every one after his tongue, after their families, in their nations.
Who are the descendants of Japhet ? Europeans !
Was the Dragon not working through the Roman Empire that Killed Jesus Christ the Messiah ?
So how come and how did Europeans Metamorphosis to become Israel ? Are not Europeans who Colonized Black People as they did during Jesus time ?
These are fact and Truth which may be more painful to you but haven’t Europeans cause so many troubles on earth already ?
Sharon A Edmonson says
Deut 28:68 Tells of the fore coming of slavery by ships a people were told they would be sent to there enemies. this happen to the Isralites, of israel. Not to no fake german Jews who as propheside will live in Shems tent today. They stole Jusdah’s identity, and is living Judah’s life. There is a letter here still stating to all evil europens nations not to let Judah up, for he will crash whites economy, and Africa blacks must stay impovirish for the same reason. All lies there’s enough resorts on the planet. Satan is in the mist of this evil, to denie food and medicine. He wants to destroy MAN including the traders who are doing his bidding. Because the Christ is the King who will rule over this planet in the end he dosn’t want that. The staff will always be with Judah (Christ) as it is foretold. Christ is the branch of Shems blood line a brown man, and not Ham the black man.The fake Jews are now coseeiing that they are grafted in Jews. But even with that they are suppose to assist Shem. But they fight hard to keep him away to what Father willed to Abrahams children. It’s only a matter of time all this madness will end.. Shem will come in to it’s inhertance. (Father said he did not issue a divorce to Shem, ) whom he prophyside would be formed in Noahs loans. in the future would inherit Adams blessings. which is to follow the blood line of Shem all the way through Mary and the Christ. So all you Japhetians STOP. for it is all is so written the Awakenning is here.. It all start and end with Shem…..
Sharon A Edmonson says
You are so right in doing the will of the father, bringing the enemy to him for for giveness. I am so tire of theses people with there racism against Jesus Matthew 25:40 .For he said (I tell you the truth, when you do to the one of the lease of these you have doing it to me.) But, I am not Jesus, I am in a humility stage right now. I am forcing self to do as he told me to do by his written word. You did well patiently with your explanning to the commentor. , for if it’s not so written it’s pure chester and not actual are factual, an attempt to bend for there on purpose, therefore not beleiveable. I want to add that in some aspect I identified with Johna Father is very aware because I do so cringe about talking to Japhet on the prophesy pages. They love enduring in misbeleiving that they can in herited heaven mistreating Shems, They would want to release shem from the prison system. Father is very tire, of this also theydon’t want there children to know they capture Shems, and want to return them back to slavery, I have the gift of descernment and it’s strong with me. All the evidenance that come out of there mouth I lock on to. There’s a person who file a petition in floridahs court so states. Every Judian that has his last name should be returned to his family as slaves. he feels were taken away illegally. But, we know he lost the war. That cancer that is trying to break out of floridah is a movement and not to be taken lightly. I am not Johna either I guess I’ll just stay away from water, for fear a spiritual whale may surface and drop me off some where I may definitely not want to go. Ex. A sundown neighborhood, most definitely, who knows we may alraedy be there via social media. That could be the gringing sensation, I get one woman told me she was tire of my winding. About the fig tree we were told to watch. Some folks don’t wanna hear the truth, it’s right there in Fathers history book he started with his creation and the ending.
Marrio Williams says
Is there old testament or Apocryphal scripture stating the Ashkenazi and the Sepharvaim was given the worship of God?
Sentinel says
The Europeans and indeed Caucasian races are descended from Shem. The Chinese, Japanese and other Asian peoples are from Japheth and the rest from Ham. The verse that says Japheth will dwell in the tents of Shem means the 2 races will mingle to form mixed peoples and this is true given the large number of people in the world who have mixed Asian and Caucasian ancestry, in central asia and even latin america.
richoka says
Interesting viewpoint. There may be some truth to it.
Kofi Ahenkora Asiamah says
Very funny Indeed. Europeans, Asians and Mixed race Arabs who are seed of Japheth and Abraham the Shemites are all considered as Edomites. For reference read Obadiah which is a book dedicated to Edome nations. Sub-Saharan Africans are the Israelites descendants of Jacob, for reference read Zephaniah 3:10-15.
Kofi Ahenkora Asiamah says
U are not Serious. Shem is not the father of Europeans and can never be the father of Europeans. Japheth is the father of all white people. Asians are all part of Japheth, middle east are all Shem and all Sub-sharan Africans are all Shem.
Namina says
Correct. The Behistun Rock proves it, along with many biblical prophecies.
Patrick ford says
If that the case yawl making? the Bible also say that the first will be last. and the last will be first, so Ham descendants received the the blessing of Yeshua, Christ the Messiah! a servant for the father to save Shem and Japheth descendants. Man cuss with the tongue. and man is made is the image of Father.
