I. D- What Does the Bible; Teach About Race? (Gen.10:1-5)

D- What Does the Bible; Teach About Race? (Gen.10:1-5)

“From these the coastland peoples of the Gentiles separated into their lands”(v.5). The gradual spread of humanity over the globe, and its division into race, is shown in its major parts by the Bible. Other questions remain for us to reach out. Through the centuries some persons have uttered both unbiblical and frequently hate-filled declarations on racial issues. The believer must, however, seek the light of Christ and the Bible as his or her guide, and reject the false pronouncements of all others.

1). All mankind originated from a single God-created pair. “Eve… was the mother of all living” (Gen.3:20). Some anthropologists today, although not Bible-believers, acknowledge that all humans are derived from an original pair. The Bible clearly states that this is so. Man did not evolve originally on different continents from separated, related human couples, thus producing the races, neither did the races, originate by interbreeding between human and animal. No, all people, according to the Scriptures, came from our first parents.

2). Early men lived long lives and had many children. (Genesis 5 and 11) supply the early genealogy lists, which very likely are purposely abbreviated, as is the genealogy in Matthew 1:11; “Jesus Christ, the Son of David [1000 B.C.], the Son of Abraham [2000 B.C.].” Note that in Genesis 5 from Adam to the Flood, many men were commonly living 900 years. In Genesis 11, after the Flood, until Abraham (2000B.C.), life spans are shown declining steadily from 600 to 150 years.

3). After the Flood, migrations populated the world. “For in his days the earth was divided” (Gen.10:25). The above verse may speak of a period of great human migration, or of a period of geologic-type changes on the land masses of the earth. If all humans could descend from one original pair, then they could also descend after the Flood from three pairs-the sons of Noah and their wives. Genesis 10 and 11 record these early migrations.   

D. बाइबल जाति के बारे में क्या सिखाती है? (Gen.10:1-5)

"इनसे अन्यजातियों के तट के लोग अपनी भूमि में अलग हो गए" (v.5)। दुनिया जलप्रलय में मानवता का क्रमिक प्रसार और जाति में इसका विभाजन, बाइबल द्वारा इसके प्रमुख भागों में दिखाया गया है। अन्य प्रश्न हमारे लिए बाहर तक पहुँचने के लिए बने हुए हैं। सदियों के माध्यम से कुछ लोगों ने नस्लीय और अक्सर नस्लीय मुद्दों पर घृणा से भरे घोषणाओं को बोला है। हालाँकि, आस्तिक को अपने मार्गदर्शक के रूप में मसीह और बाइबिल के प्रकाश की तलाश करनी चाहिए, और अन्य सभी के झूठे उच्चारण को अस्वीकार करना चाहिए।

1)। सभी मानव जाति एक ही परमेश्‍वर-निर्मित जोड़ी से उत्पन्न हुई। "हव्वा ... सभी जीवितों की माँ थी" (Gen.3:20)। आज कुछ मानवविज्ञानी, हालाँकि बाइबल-विश्वासी नहीं, स्वीकार करते हैं कि सभी मनुष्य एक मूल जोड़ी से बने हैं। बाइबल स्पष्ट रूप से बताती है कि ऐसा है। मनुष्य मूल रूप से अलग-अलग, संबंधित मानव जोड़ों से अलग-अलग महाद्वीपों पर विकसित नहीं हुआ, इस प्रकार जाति का उत्पादन किया गया, न ही जाति, मानव और जानवर के बीच संवाद द्वारा उत्पन्न हुई। नहीं, सभी लोग, शास्त्र के अनुसार, हमारे पहले माता-पिता से आए थे।

2)। आदि में मानव लंबे जीवन जीते थे और उनके कई बच्चे थे। (उत्पत्ति ५ और ११) आदि में वंशावली सूचियों की आपूर्ति करते हैं, जो बहुत संभावित रूप से संक्षिप्त रूप से प्रकट होती हैं, जैसा कि Matthew 1:11 में वंशावली है; "यीशु मसीह, डेविड का बेटा [1000 ईसा पूर्व], अब्राहम का पुत्र [2000 ईसा पूर्व]।" ध्यान दें कि एडम से जलप्रलय तक में उत्पत्ति 5 में, कई मानव आमतौर पर 900 साल जीवित थे। उत्पत्ति 11 में, बाढ़ के बाद, अब्राहम (2000B.C) तक, जीवन काल 600 से 150 वर्षों तक लगातार गिरते हुए दिखाया गया है।

3)। जलप्रलय के बाद, प्रवासियों ने दुनिया को आबाद किया। "उनके दिनों के लिए पृथ्वी विभाजित थी" (Gen.10:25)। उपरोक्त पद्य महान मानव प्रवास की अवधि, या पृथ्वी के भूमि द्रव्यमान पर भूगर्भिक-प्रकार के परिवर्तनों की अवधि की बात कर सकती है। यदि सभी मनुष्य एक मूल जोड़ी से उतर सकते हैं, तो वे तीन जोड़े नोह के पुत्रों और उनकी पत्नियों से जलप्रलय के बाद भी उतर सकते हैं। उत्पत्ति 10 और 11 इन प्रारंभिक प्रवासों को रिकॉर्ड करते हैं।
