The three sons of Noah were Shem, Ham, and Japheth. They were believed to be the ancestors of all the different nations and peoples in the world.
Noah. Genesis 6:9 This is the genealogy of Noah. Noah was a just man, perfect in his generations. Noah walked with God. Genesis 6:10 And Noah begot three sons: Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
1) Noah's wife (no name) 2) Shem, Noah's son 3) Shem's wife (no name) 4) Ham, Noah's son 5) Ham's wife (no name) 6) Japheth, Noah's son 7) Japheth's wife (no name)
they are the sons of noah:
The biblical brother of Ham and Shem was Japheth. They were the sons of Noah, who were said to be the ancestors of the three main races of humanity according to the Bible.
Genesis 6:10 - And Noah begot three sons: Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
Genesis 6:10 - And Noah begot three sons: Shem, Ham, and Japheth. [NKJV]
Noah, his wife, Shem, Ham, Japeth, and their wives. Eight total.
This is a difficulty. Noah's wife could not have three pregnancies all in Noah's 500th year. However, it is said that Noah was 600 when he went into the ark. His son, Shem begot Arphaxad when Shem was 100, two years after the flood. (Gen. 11: 10). This means Noah must have been 502, when Shem was born. Gen. 10: 21 calls Shem the "brother of Japheth the elder" in the NKJV. Some other translations say, “Shem the older brother of Japheth.” So, it is hard to determine the correct birth order. Gen. 9: 24 calls Ham, Noah’s “younger son” in the NKJV. Again, other translations call him the “youngest son.” This still doesn’t address the triplet question, though. Multiple births still emphasize birth order. A lot is made of Esau having the rights of the first-born, even though Jacob is his twin. What could be meant is that Noah was “about 500” when his three sons were born. But this seems a bit unsatisfactory, doesn’t it?
The Bible has the :-Gen 10:1-32 KJV Now these are the generations of the sons of Noah, Shem, Ham, and Japheth: and unto them were sons [ie Noah's grandsons] born after the flood. [v. 2] The sons of Japheth; Gomer, and Magog, and Madai, and Javan, and Tubal, and Meshech, and Tiras. [v. 3] ... [v. 6] And the sons of Ham; Cush, and Mizraim, and Phut, and Canaan. [v. 7] ... [v. 22] The children of Shem; Elam, and Asshur, and Arphaxad, and Lud, and Aram. ... [v. 32] These are the families of the sons of Noah, after their generations, in their nations: and by these were the nations divided in the earth after the flood.
Noah took his three sons (Shem, Ham, and Japheth) on the ark. See Genesis 7:13.
Some would say 'Ham' is the middle or second son between Shem and Japheth.
