The Psalm 83 War has already just begun part three

The ancient background of both Edom and the Ismaelites were presented in part two. Moab will be covered in part three. Where did Moab come from? The Moabities are race that was conceived by incense. Both of his daughters got their elderly father drunk with wine and each conceived one son by him. Lot's elder daughter named her son Moab and he is the father of the Moabities. The name Moab means "from my father," and he is the founder of the Kingdom of Moab, the modern nation of Jordan, which is frequent disagreement with the nation of Israel today, and who will become an active participant of the Psalm 83 War. Whereas his younger daughter's named her son, Ben-Amni and he is the father of the Kingdom of Ammon today and the Amonities are also a race race that was conceived by incense. The nation of Ammon is located east of the Jordan river and is also part of the modern nation of Jordan... Abram, was a Hebrew name, meaning 'exalted father, was instructed by GOD, to leave behind all of his relatives in the land of UR of the Chaldean's (the ancestors' of the Babylonians.) However, the founding Patriarch of the Hebrew nation, Abram, disobeyed GOD when he brought his nephew Lot along. The name Lot means 'veil' or 'hidden." When the two angels from the LORD warned Lot to leave Sodom behind because they were about to destroy it 'because the cry of their wickedness' was great before the LORD GOD. Lot left with his two unmarried daughters and his wife. His wife, was a Sodomite, and her heart was still in Sodom. When she disobeyed the angels by 'turning back' she became a pillar of salt. Lot and his two surviving daughters fled to a small mountain. His daughters believed the whole earth was destroyed and the three of them were the only remaining survivors left. The elder daughter wanted to preserve their elder's father Lot's linage cause there were no men left alive to marry them. Thus the elder daughter got her father drunk with wine on one night and the younger daughter got him drunk on the second night. Ruth came from the land of Moab and returned to the land of Judah with her mother-in law- Naomi. And she married her kinsman redeemer, Boaz, who's son was Obed, whose son was Jessie, whose youngest of seven sons, his sheppard David. He became King of Israel from the City of Jerusalem! God promised King David, the Messiah would be a descendant of his house! Roxanne Lea Dubarry Roxy Lea 1954 December 31, 2023

Nice narrative Roxanne. Ever wondered why LORD is in all caps in some modern Bibles?
