Ham, son of Noah - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Ham (חָם, Standard Hebrew Ḥam, Tiberian Hebrew Ḥām, Ḫām, Ge'ez Kam), according to the Genealogies of Genesis, was a son of Noah and the father of Cush, Mizraim, Phut, and Canaan. |
 | | Traditionally, it is held that Ham was one of the sons of Noah who moved southwest into Africa and parts of the near Middle East, and was the forefather of the nations there. |
 | | A few have used the curse of Canaan to justify slavery, and later discrimination against fls, arguing that Ham was the one who actually committed the sin, and that since he is the father of the fl race, all of his descendants (not just those of his son Canaan) were cursed. |
