Tracing Your Ancestors Through History: The Table of Nations Genesis 10

Off to the movies again! Professor William Albright, Dean of Biblical Archaeology, (1955:4,) a man highly respected in his field had this to say about Genesis 10: "It stands absolutely alone in ancient literature with no remote parallel even among the Greeks...The Table of Nations remains an astonishingly accurate document...it shows such remarkable 'modern' understanding of the ethnic and linguistic situation in the modern world, in spite of all its complexity, that scholars never fail to be impressed with the author's knowledge of the subject."
