Shem
The name "Shem" is derived from the Hebrew root "שֵׁם" (Shem), meaning "name" or "renown." Shem is one of the three sons of Noah, and his lineage is significant as it leads to the Semitic peoples, including the Israelites. In a broader theological context, Shem's line is blessed by God, as seen in Genesis 9:26, where Noah declares, "Blessed be the LORD, the God of Shem!" This blessing is foundational for understanding the covenantal relationship God establishes with the descendants of Shem, ultimately leading to the coming of the Messiah. Shem's role in the genealogical record underscores the importance of divine election and the unfolding of God's redemptive plan through specific lineages.

Arphaxad
The name "Arphaxad" is of uncertain etymology, but it is often associated with the Hebrew root "אַרְפַּכְשַׁד" (Arpakhshad). Arphaxad is a descendant of Shem and is significant in the genealogical line leading to Abraham. Historically, Arphaxad is believed to have settled in the region that would later be known as Chaldea, contributing to the development of early Mesopotamian civilizations. The mention of Arphaxad in the genealogical record highlights the continuity of God's promise through successive generations, emphasizing the faithfulness of God in preserving the line through which He would bring about His purposes.

Shelah
The name "Shelah" comes from the Hebrew "שֶׁלַח" (Shelach), which can mean "sent" or "branch." Shelah is the son of Arphaxad and continues the genealogical line that leads to Eber, the ancestor of the Hebrews. The inclusion of Shelah in this lineage is crucial for understanding the development of the Hebrew identity and the eventual emergence of the Israelite nation. In a spiritual sense, Shelah represents the idea of being "sent" as part of God's divine mission, a theme that resonates throughout Scripture as God sends His chosen people to fulfill His purposes on earth.

TEN GENERATIONS FROM SHEM TO ABRAHAM; AN ABSTRACT OF Genesis 11:10-26, OMITTING ALL HISTORIC NOTICES (1Chronicles 1:24-27).

Between Arphaxad aud Shelah the LXX., at Genesis 11:12, insert ?????? = Heb. Kenan (1Chronicles 1:2, above). The name is not contained in our present Hebrew text of Genesis. Kenan may have been dropped originally, in order to make Abraham the tenth from Shem, as Noah is tenth from Adam. The artificial symmetry of these ancient lists is evidently designed. Comp. the thrice fourteen generations in the genealogy of our Lord (Matthew 1).

1Chronicles 1:28-42 enumerate a second series of seventy tribes or peoples, derived from Abraham through the three representative names of Ishmael, Keturah, and Isaac; just as the seventy peoples of the former series are derived from Noah through Shem, Ham, and Japheth. And as, in the former list, the sons of Japheth and Ham were treated of before the Semitic stocks, so, in the present instance, the sons of Ishmael and Keturah precede Isaac, and of Isaac's sons Esau precedes Israel (35, seq.); because the writer wishes to lead up to Israel as the climax of his presentation. . . .
