Genesis 10

Another genealogy.  This one is pretty interesting because it's all about how Noah's sons (who are supposed to be the only people left) populated the world--like, these guy's descendants became the coast people, this one's became the Philistines, and so on.  I wonder what "a mighty hunter before the Lord" means (about Nimrod, 10:9).  He was the first to be "a mighty man".  I wonder what he did to earn that title.  I bet it's a really interesting story.  What a tantalizing hint!  Then again, I wouldn't be all that excited about the story if it had been in the Bible the whole time.
