One of the most evil and ancient hatred that exists in the world is antisemitism. This despicible bias was most obvious in the Twentieth Century with the Nazis, but it has been going on for a long, long time. Many of our common words in English have their roots in antisemitism, although the meanings have changed over the years. Words like "ghetto" and "cabal", while meaning something totally different now, had their origins describing a walled area in which Jews were confined or a secret occult society of Jews trying to take over the world. Now those words just mean a poor section of town or a conspiracy group. But what of the word "antisemitism" itself? Where does that come from? Why isn't the word for this insane hatred called anti-hebrewism" or "anti-judaism"? Of course, it is just as evil, no matter what it's called, but Today's Passage from Genesis gives us a clue to this mystery.

After the riveting stories of Noah's Ark and The Tower of Babel, we run smack into another Genealogy. This one is of particular interest, as it traces the line from Noah's son Shem to a man named Abram (Avram) who lived in Mesopotamia in a city named Ur. This is in modern-day Iraq, and there are still ruins of that Ancient City. It had a huge Ziggurat, which was like a tower of Babel, and many gods were worshipped there. People were still very clannish and married close relatives, and Abram was no exception. He was no better or worse than anyone else, but this was the man who would be called out by The One True God to be the Father of Many Nations, most notably, the Hebrews. Since there was a clear line on Abram's family tree going back to Noah's son Shem, his people were called "Shemites" or "Semites". The funny thing is, all people who claim descendacy from Abraham are also in the lineage of Shem, so the people who claim to be "Sons of Ishmael" are Semites as well. That includes their Languages, Hebrew, Aramaic, and Arabic, which are called "Semitic Languages." And so, words have meaning. Semites who are antisemitic are just hating themselves and The God that made them.

Come and Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem, For Our FRiends in Need, For Persecuted Believers, and For Our Beloved Nation.

"He was delivered up for our trespasses and raised for our justification." (Romans 4:25)

I might add that the "cabal" was a mythical secret society. It didn't exist, but the anti-semites claimed it did.

Psalm 11

To the leader. Of David.

1 In the Lord I take refuge; how can you say to me,
‘Flee like a bird to the mountains;*
2 for look, the wicked bend the bow,
they have fitted their arrow to the string,
to shoot in the dark at the upright in heart.
3 If the foundations are destroyed,
what can the righteous do?’

4 The Lord is in his holy temple;
the Lord’s throne is in heaven.
His eyes behold, his gaze examines humankind.
5 The Lord tests the righteous and the wicked,
and his soul hates the lover of violence.
6 On the wicked he will rain coals of fire and sulphur;
a scorching wind shall be the portion of their cup.
7 For the Lord is righteous;
he loves righteous deeds;
the upright shall behold his face.

As an aside, the Jewish Ghetto in Rome is considered the oldest in the world outside the Middle East.

Joining in prayer. God bless.

Indeed. And there is even an incident described in the Book of Acts when the antisemitic Emperor Claudius expelled all the Jews from Rome.
