And the books were opened series continues with the book of the generations of Ishmael (or Ismael)
Genesis 25:12-13 KJV
[12] Now these are the generations of Ishmael, Abram’s son, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sara’s handmaid, bare unto Abram: [13] And these are the names of the sons of Ismael, by their names, according to their generations: the firstborn of Ishmael, Nebajoth; and Kedar, and Adbeel, and Mibsam,
[14] And Mishma, and Dumah, and Massa, [15] Hadar, and Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah: [16] These are the sons of Ishmael, and these are their names, by their towns, and by their castles; twelve princes according to their nations.
[17] And these are the years of the life of Ismael, an hundred and thirty and seven years: and he gave up the ghost and died, and was gathered unto his people. [18] They dwelt from Havilah unto Shur, that is before Egypt, as thou goest toward Assyria: and he died in the presence of all his brethren.
There is not a Book of the Generations of Abram.
It goes from Tera, Abram’s father, to his sons. This son, Ismael is his firstborn. Ismael came by way of Abram’s secondary wife, Hagar. Ismael today is said to be the father of the religion known as Islam. At least his descendants are said to have proclaimed the Islamic faith.
In our modern terminology, Ismael would be biracial. His father Abram is Shemetic (Semitic), while his mother is an Egyptian. She would be from the family of Mizraim, son of Japheth. Ismael’s father is from Shem, and his mother is from Japheth (previously thought to be Ham), but both Shem and Japheth are from Noa.
The last note on the generations of Ismael is that he also had twelve sons, the twelve princes, as is noted in the Bible. They lived in castles. They lived from Havilah to Egypt, like one going towards Assyria (which is Western Africa, see ATLOS, Africa the Land of Shem). This is Ismael ladies and gentlemen.
