Notes
The record of Noah’s descendants shows Abraham’s place in history. The ethnic background of the seventy nations gives context to Israel’s history (compare Genesis 10).
The Chronicler starts by showing Israel's place among the nations. He traces their ancestry from Adam to Jacob, using information from Genesis.
