In the dawn of human history, as recounted by ancient texts, the patriarch Noah apportioned the world among his three sons:
Shem, Ham, and Japheth. This seminal event did more than divide lands; it laid the foundation for future genealogies and civilization.
Dividing the Earth: Noah's Legacy" explores these ancient narratives, revealing the vast territories each son inherited, from the peaks of Rafa to the shores of the Egyptian Sea, from the fiery mountains of Africa to the vast terrains of Asia.
These divisions influenced the spread and establishment of nations, intertwining prophecies, blessings, and curses. The narrative delves into the enduring impact of these partitions, especially highlighting the misdeeds of C
ultural evolution. This book is a deep dive into an era where divine will and human aspirations intertwined
to shape the world's geographical and spiritual topography.
Over millennia, these ancient divisions have led to both marvels and miseries. Territories once assigned to the descendants of Shem, Ham, and Japheth witnessed the rise and fall of civilizations, conflicts, and the formation of mighty empires. Among these divisions, the Levantine territory stands out as one of the most enduring and contentious legacies, marked by the struggle between the Jews, descendants of Shem, and the Canaanites, descendants of Ham.
"Dividing the Earth: Noah's Legacy" chronicles the complex history of this region, particularly focusing on the establishment of Israel in 1948 and its profound implications. The book addresses the ongoing conflict, exploring the aspirations, challenges, and persistent questions over territorial rights. With a deep dive into history and present-day tensions, this book seeks to unravel the enduring quest to determine the rightful custodians of the land now named Palestine and to understand the ceaseless conflicts over this sacred and contested terrain.
