Ham's Influnce: From Babel to Spiritual Babylon

"It took only three generations after the flood to lay the cornerstone of the great apostasy so deep and tenacious it would endure until
the end of time.
Ham, one of Noah's three sons who was saved in the ark, seems to have learned little from his experience.
The descendants of Ham are notorious for their depravity. His son Canaan was the father of Israel's implacable enemy, the Canaanites. His grandson was Nimrod, and Nimrod was "a mighty one in the earth" (Genesis 10:8) who became the founder and first mayor of Babylon. It was this city that was destined to become "BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH" (Revelation 17:5)."
