Genesis 10-11 (Who are these people ? ) Why is it important to know who they are? While installing a new music CD on my laptop, I came across a strange file in my music library. It was titled: Skip Heirtzig Genesis 10-11. When I tried to play it, the file was no longer available. Well, why was it still listed as a file? The date on it was 2009. So, I went online to search for it. BINGO!! Skip’s Teachings > 01 Genesis - 2009 > Genesis 10-11 Very interesting information, which helps us understand where we came from. Also Biblical history of the sons of Noah which affects international relations today, leading to the End Times spoken of in Daniel. (Just for other information, he is a Billy Graham Baptist.) But, this segment is strictly from the Bible. Here it is: http://skipheitzig.com/teachings_view.asp?ServiceID=753&q=high
It was really interesting listen to that speech. I noted nothing that contradicts the basic teaching of the Bible or the beliefs of Jw.
1854 brings more memories of war. When I attended High School, I was introduced to a poem by Alfred Lord Tennyson. I was given this poem as an assignment, to learn, memorize, and report. It was titled: Charge Of The Light Brigade. As I learned about it, I realized it was not just a poem, but a true story. The charge took place on 25 October 1854,, near the city of Balaclava in Crimea. (Now known as Yalta, Sevastopol. Just south of Ukraine, on the Black Sea. The Light Brigade was English. The Crimean peninsula was held, at the time, by Russian troops. It was known as the Crimean War. What makes this site and event so interesting today? The Yalta Conference was held February 4-11, 1945, and was the second wartime meeting of leaders from the United States, Great Britain, and the Soviet Union. Upon arriving at the Crimean resort of Yalta, Allied leaders [Churchill, Roosevelt, & Stalin] hoped to define the post-World War II peace and set the stage for rebuilding Europe. In the pictures of that conference, Stalin is the only one wearing a soldier’s uniform. Of course, the other two leaders were politicos. Stalin was a murderous oligarc. After the conference, Stalin broke his promises regarding Eastern Europe. It should not be surprising that Russia is still fighting to control Crimea/Ukraine. In the bible they are called rosh. They were from the sons of Japheth. ( 1 Chr 1:5, Eze 38:2 ) And, they are associated with Gog and Magog. ( Rev 20:8 )They were well known for their horsemanship. They could ride and shoot arrows from their bows accurately. https://www.history.com/news/the-charge-of-the-light-brigade-160-years-ago
