		For writing "The Crisis of Faith," and extraordinary efforts that set some patterns which are followed still today in Hell's government of the Habbalah, Lucifer gave Joktan a Word: "The Loyal Opposition." For centuries, Joktan has exemplified and promoted his Word with skill and fervor.
		Therefore do not restrain yourselves in any way from seeking the rhythm which is uniquely yours, for to do so is to attempt to thwart His will in the Universe, and you will be scourged, and His object will be completed regardless when imperfection is exposed, in you.

		Though we should suppose that Joktan was born, when Eber was only 20 years of age and that Joktan's oldest son was born to him when he was likewise 20 years old, yet still it appears, that the oldest son of Joktan must be 6 years younger than Peleg.
		So that at least the youngest of those 13 sons of Joktan, namely, Jobab and 3 other brothers of his are mentioned before him must be younger still.

		We are told that the clan of Joktan, Peleg's brother, moved to the east (Gen. 10:30).
		In terms of the theology of Genesis, the call of Abram occurs in the aftermath of the judgment on the nations at the tower of Babel.
		Since Peleg's brother Joktan was involved in the apostasy at Babel, and it seems that his involvement came after he had begotten many sons, it is likely that the Babel incident happened in the middle or later part of Peleg's life.
