In this video, Dominic Enyart dives into one of the Bible’s most misunderstood and bizarre stories. You’ll learn:
-What “seeing the nakedness of his father” really means,
-How Hebrew figures of speech change the entire meaning,
-Why Canaan's birth was the result of incest—and how that explains centuries of conflict,
-The biblical, moral, and historical implications of this tragic account,
-How this story shaped the Jewish view of the Canaanites,
-Why understanding this story helps make Genesis a rational, historical book—not a myth.
This isn’t a strange tale about a drunk Noah and a misunderstood curse. It’s a clear and sobering look at sin, consequence, and the tragic fallout of rebellion.
