"Curious then that the verses immediately following the disemb-ark-ation appear to describe appalling behaviour on the part of Noah and his family. Or is enslaving grandchildren for minor (non-existent?) offences OK in God's book?"

Well I guess we get the picture of what happens when one drinks too much.

Yes, when you drink too much you order the enslavement of your grandchildren. Bad form.

LOL! You are the one who keeps bring up the "original" and you don't know what is said in those verses? Pick up a copy of the Talmud and read what those closest to the event think was the "minor offense". Yes, the "original" as you put it, tells the story, but like many who have grasped at that straw for too long, their preconceived ideas evade the account in the "original" language. Just a suggestion: put down your "Strongs" and learn the language before you start speaking of things you do not understand.
