Summary

Genesis 11:13 lists the descendants of Shem, one of Noah's sons, tracing his lineage through the generations. This genealogy serves to establish the historical background leading up to the introduction of Abram (later known as Abraham) in the following verses. It highlights the continuity of God's plan and the fulfillment of His promises through the generations. This verse sets the stage for the unfolding narrative of God's covenant with Abraham and the establishment of the nation of Israel as part of God's redemptive plan for humanity.
