Recently, I looked up one of my favorite articles of theirs,\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/creation.com\/the-sixteen-grandsons-of-noah#r14\" target=\"_blank\">The sixteen grandsons of Noah<\/a>. The authors present evidence of these men, listed in\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.biblegateway.com\/passage\/?search=Genesis+10&amp;version=NIV\" target=\"_blank\">Genesis 10<\/a>, that can be recognized through thousands of years even to today. I decided to make a chart for you (based on the article, plus a little research) to have a quick glance; for the details, though,\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/creation.com\/the-sixteen-grandsons-of-noah#r14\" target=\"_blank\">read the article<\/a>. I recommend it!<\/p>\n<p>In the chart, I list the grandsons under each of Noah\u2019s sons, Japheth, Ham, and Shem.
