The REAL Reason Noah CURSED Canaan NOT Ham | Michael Heiser

Heiser argues that Genesis 9 has been badly misused to support racism, especially the claim that black skin is a curse from God. He explains that the passage is not about skin color at all, but about an ancient Hebrew idiom involving “seeing nakedness,” which in biblical language refers to sexual intercourse rather than simple visual exposure. In his reading, Ham’s offense was a sexual violation involving Noah’s wife, and Noah’s curse fell not on Ham but on Canaan, meaning the text is about a family/patriarchal power issue rather than race. He says later interpreters wrongly connected Ham with the African peoples descended from Cush, Egypt, and Put, then projected ideas of racial superiority and inferiority onto the Bible. His conclusion is that Genesis 9 provides no biblical basis for racism and should not be used to claim that black people are cursed. #jesus #gospel #christ #michaelheiser #baptism #jerusalem #satan What "They" Don't Want You To Know About The Alien Abduction Phenomenon:    • What "They" Don't Want You To Know About T...   Are Aliens Demons?
