Genesis 11:10 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 11:10

These are the generations of Shem
Or a genealogy of the posterity of Shem; not of all of them, only of those of the line which led to Abraham, by which might appear the true line in which the Messiah from Adam through Abraham sprung:

Shem was one hundred years old, and begat Arphexad two years after
the flood;
by which it is pretty plain that he was younger than Japheth; (See Gill on Genesis 10:21) of Arphaxad his son, (See Gill on Genesis 10:22).

9 et idcirco vocatum est nomen eius Babel quia ibi confusum est labium universae terrae et inde dispersit eos Dominus super faciem cunctarum regionum
10 hae generationes Sem Sem centum erat annorum quando genuit Arfaxad biennio post diluvium
11 vixitque Sem postquam genuit Arfaxad quingentos annos et genuit filios et filias
12 porro Arfaxad vixit triginta quinque annos et genuit Sale
