His account and lineage have had a profound impact on biblical history and the nations that emerged from his descendants. Ham's narrative is primarily found in the Book of Genesis, and his actions and their consequences are subjects of theological discussion. Biblical Account: Ham is introduced in Genesis as one of Noah's three sons, alongside Shem and Japheth. The Bible records that after the flood, Noah became a farmer and planted a vineyard. In <a href="/genesis/9-20.htm">Genesis 9:20-22</a> , it states: "Now Noah, a man of the soil, proceeded to plant a vineyard. But when he drank some of its wine, he became drunk and uncovered himself inside his tent. And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw his father’s nakedness and told his two brothers outside." This incident led to a significant curse pronounced by Noah. Upon awakening and learning what Ham had done, Noah declared a curse not directly on Ham, but on his son Canaan. <a href="/genesis/9-24.htm">Genesis 9:24-25</a> records: "When Noah awoke from his drunkenness and learned what his youngest son had done to him, he said, 'Cursed be Canaan! A servant of servants shall he be to his brothers.'" Descendants and Nations: Ham is traditionally considered the progenitor of several ancient peoples and nations. <a href="/bsb/genesis/10.htm">Genesis 10</a>, often referred to as the Table of Nations, lists the descendants of Ham as Cush, Mizraim, Put, and Canaan. These names are associated with regions and peoples in Africa and the Near East. · Cush is often linked to regions in Africa, particularly Ethiopia and Sudan. · Mizraim is the Hebrew name for Egypt, indicating that Ham's descendants settled in this region. · Put is associated with Libya and parts of North Africa. · Canaan is linked to the land of Canaan, which later became the Promised Land for the Israelites. Theological Implications: The account of Ham and the curse on Canaan has been the subject of much theological and historical discussion. Some interpretations have historically misused this narrative to justify racial discrimination, although such views are not supported by a careful reading of the text. The curse was specifically directed at Canaan, not all of Ham's descendants, and should be understood within its historical and cultural context. Cultural and Historical Context: In the ancient Near Eastern context, the actions of Ham and the subsequent curse on Canaan reflect the importance of family honor and the severe consequences of dishonoring one's parents. The narrative underscores the biblical theme of the consequences of sin and the importance of respecting familial and societal norms. Conclusion: The account of Ham in the Bible serves as a foundational narrative for understanding the origins of several ancient civilizations and their interactions with the people of Israel. His account is a reminder of the complexities of human behavior and the far-reaching effects of actions within a family and society.<a name="hit" id="hit"></a><div class="vheading2">Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary</div>Hamhot; heat; brown<a name="smi" id="smi"></a><div class="vheading2">Smith's Bible Dictionary</div>Ham(hot; sunburnt). <ol> <li>The name of one of the three sons of Noah, apparently the second in age.

The curse pronounced by Noah against Ham, properly against Canaan his fourth son, was accomplished when the Jews subsequently exterminated the Canaanites.One of the most important facts recorded in <a href="/context/genesis/10.htm">Genesis 10</a> is the foundation of the earliest monarchy in Babylonia by Nimrod the grandson of Ham (6, 8, 10). The primitive Babylonian empire was thus Hamitic, and of a cognate race with the primitive inhabitants of Arabia and of Ethiopia. (see <a href="../a/accad.htm">ACCAD</a>.)The race of Ham were the most energetic of all the descendants of Noah in the early times of the post-diluvian world. <a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.

The Youngest Son of Noah: The youngest son of Noah, from whom sprang the western and southwestern nations known to the Hebrews. His name first occurs in <a href="/genesis/5-32.htm">Genesis 5:32</a>, where, as in 6:10 and elsewhere, it occupies the second place. In <a href="/genesis/9-18.htm">Genesis 9:18</a> Ham is described as "the father of Canaan," to prepare the reader for 9:25-27, where Noah, cursing Ham for having told Shem and Japheth of his nakedness, refers to him as Canaan. On account of this, it has been suggested that "Canaan" stood originally in all the passages where the three brothers are spoken of, and that this was later changed to "Ham," except in the verses containing the curse. It seems more likely, however, that the name "Canaan" is inserted prophetically, as Noah would not desire to curse his son, but only one branch of that son's descendants, who were later the principal adversaries of the Hebrews. 2. Ham as a Nationality: The name given, in <a href="/psalms/105-23.htm">Psalm 105:23, 17</a>; <a href="/psalms/106-22.htm">Psalm 106:22</a> (compare 78:51), to Egypt as a descendant of Ham, son of Noah. As Shem means "dusky," or the like, and Japheth "fair," it has been supposed that Ham meant, as is not improbable, "black." This is supported by the evidence of Hebrew and Arabic, in which the word chamam means "to be hot" and "to be black," the latter signification being derived from the former. 3. Meaning of the Word: That Ham is connected with the native name of Egypt, Kem, or, in full pa ta' en Kem, "the land of Egypt," in Bashmurian Coptic Kheme, is unlikely, as this form is probably of a much later date than the composition of Genesis, and, moreover, as the Arabic shows, the guttural is not a true kh, but the hard breathing h, which are both represented by the Hebrew cheth. 4. The Nations Descending from Ham: Of the nationalities regarded as descending from Ham, none can be described as really black. First on the list, as being the darkest, is Cush or Ethiopia (<a href="/genesis/10-6.htm">Genesis 10:6</a>), after which comes Mitsrayim, or Egypt, then PuT or Libyia, and Canaan last. The sons or descendants of each of these are then taken in turn, and it is noteworthy that some of them, like the Ethiopians and the Canaanites, spoke Semitic, and not Hamitic, languages-Seba (if connected with the Sabeans), Havilah (Yemen), and Sheba, whose queen visited Solomon. Professor Sayce, moreover, has pointed out that Caphtor is the original home of the Phoenicians, who spoke a Semitic language. The explanation of this probably is that other tongues were forced upon these nationalities in consequence of their migrations, or because they fell under the dominion of nationalities alien to them. The non-Sem Babylonians, described as descendants of Nimrod (Merodach), as is welI known, spoke Sumerian, and adopted Semitic Babylonian only on account of mingling with the Semites whom they found there. Another explanation is that the nationalities described as Hamitic-a parallel to those of the Semitic section-were so called because they fell under Egyptian dominion. This would make the original Hamitic race to have been Egyptian and account for Ham as a (poetical) designation of that nationality. Professor F. L. Griffith has pointed out that the Egyptian Priapic god of Panopolis (Akhmim), sometimes called Menu, but also apparently known as Khem, may have been identified with the ancestor of the Hamitic race-he was worshipped from the coast of the Red Sea to Coptos, and must have been well known to Egypt's eastern neighbors. He regards the characteristics of Menu as being in accord with the shamelessness of Ham as recorded in <a href="/genesis/9-20.htm">Genesis 9:20</a>. See <a href="../j/japheth.htm">JAPHETH</a>; <a href="../s/shem.htm">SHEM</a>; TABLE OF NATIONS. T. G. PinchesHAM (2)(ham): (1) A place East of the Jordan named between Ashteroth-karnaim and Shaveh-kiriathaim, in which Chedorlaomer smote the Zu-zim (<a href="/genesis/14-5.htm">Genesis 14:5</a>). No name resembling this has been recovered. Septuagint reads bahem "with them," instead of beham, "in Ham." Some have thought that "Ham" may be a corruption from "Ammon"; or that it may be the ancient name of Rabbath-ammon itself. (2) A poetical appellation of Egypt: "the land of Ham" (<a href="/psalms/105-23.htm">Psalm 105:23</a>, etc.) is the land of Jacob's sojourning, i.e. Egypt; "the tents of Ham" (<a href="/psalms/78-51.htm">Psalm 78:51</a>) are the dwellings of the Egyptians. It may be derived from the native name of Egypt, Kemi, or Khemi. See <a href="../m/mizraim.htm">MIZRAIM</a>; <a href="../s/shem.htm">SHEM</a>. W.
