the birth of three

[DxCx]

"The seventh had seven descendants
The seventh was then divided into three"

like i know, the three was Shem, Ham and Jepeth.
so it means that Noah was the Seventh.. or something like that..
but Noah was the 10th generation..
Enoch was the Seventh..
and i can't find how Enoch is connected to all of this.
can i get a real explanation of the seventh, the seven descendats, and the three?

Hey, warmly welcome to the community.

Hm, I'm not very familiar with the subject, however I assume this may also be related to Iron Maiden's "Seventh Son Of The Seventh Son" (http://www.lyricsfreak.com/i/iron+maiden/seventh+son+of+a+seventh+son_20068052.html), and originally the following ancient belief http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seventh_son_of_a_seventh_son

thnx for welcomin me..
no, i didn't ment that..
i know the seventh son of the seventh son "legend"

i ment in orphaned-land's song.."Birth Of The Three (The Unification)"
thou im not sure if there is any connection at all between those two.. or there is?

all i know is no matter how i did count it,
it does not make any sence hehe..
so i want a bit light on that subject ;P

Well, I'm not too sure but IMO its just the legend alone and not in relation with any particular biblical character as I wasn't able to derive anything specific. Maybe its that the three and the powers mentioned and their origins are substantiated by the seventh son of a seventh son 'legend'.

DxCx, Im sure that when you look around for older threads in this forum, your question will be answered. I recall this topic from the early days of Mabool. Seek and thy shall find. And also welcome in (-:

only 2 results came, 1 was some birthday..
and the other was daily lyrics of the song..
no explanation :S
