Chapter 63

1

Now I had heard while I dwelt in Haran that some of the seed of Eber had entered into Egypt and driven the seed of Ham to the south and taken possession of the land.

2

But these followed not after the God of their father Eber, but worshiped idol gods, even as did my father Terah, but they followed not after the abominations of Nimrod.

3

Now these Hebrews were of the seed of Hadoram, the son of Joktan, the son of Eber.

4

And Joktan was the brother of Peleg.

5

And Eber was the son of Salah, the son of Arphaxad, the son of Shem.

6

Wherefore, the Lord had sent me to preach the gospel unto these who had departed from the God of their fathers.
