Och barn föddes även åt Sem, Jafets äldre bror, som blev stamfar till alla Ebers barn.
SKB
Till Shem föddes också barn. Shem var förfader till alla Evers barn [fyra generationer framåt, se vers 24-25, ordet betyder ”gå över” och har gett upphov till ordet ”hebré”] och Jafets bror den äldre. [Ordagrant avslutas den hebreiska meningen med ”broder Jafet äldre”. Det går att tolka det hebreiska adjektivet hagadol så betydelsen blir: ”Jafet var den äldre brodern”. Så gör den grekiska översättningen Septuaginta och många judiska rabbiner. Andra tolkar frasen som ”Jafets äldre broder” och att det är Shem som är Jafets äldre broder. Liknande formulering finns i Dom 1:13 där Kenas är Kalebs yngre bror. Den syriska, latinska och många moderna översättningar väljer denna tolkning. Kärnbibeln lutar sig mot 1 Mos 11:10 och 1 Mos 11:26 där det verkar som om Jafet är äldst, se även vers 1.]
