Gen 9:26 This blessing of Shem is where we get the word Semite meaning "descended from Shem."
ReplyDeleteKind of strange hearing the word only as Semite since we normally only hear the word Anti-semite.
Abraham is a descendant of Shem (Luke 1:34) and therefore the Israelites were descendants of Shem.
