Area of Gan EiꞋdën: Mesopotamia ("between the rivers"; in yellow), between the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers, and the Persian Gulf |
Because QaꞋyin committed murder, he was banished from EiꞋdën and forced to move East — to Persia (modern Iran).1 In order to be accepted there without being killed as an enemy, he had to be tattooed2 with the tribal mark that identified the peoples there; no longer identified, or identifiable, with the tribe of •dâmꞋ and Khaw•âhꞋ.
Then •dâmꞋ and Khaw•âhꞋ had another son, Sheit.
As generations passed and sons of ël•oh•imꞋ married daughters of the â•dâmꞋ, society and civilizations degenerated, morality eroded and mankind grew increasingly depraved to the point that those who conveyed the RuꞋakh of ä' Ël•oh•imꞋ found it was futile to advocate for His Din.
Nᵊphil•imꞋ, who were reputedly sons of ël•oh•imꞋ,1 married daughters of the â•dâmꞋ, producing heroic-warriors who, from antiquity, had been men of ha-SheimꞋ. So ä' consoled Himself for having made the â•dâmꞋ in hâ-ârꞋëtz and said, "I should blot out the â•dâmꞋ from the face of the a•dâm•âhꞋ; from â•dâmꞋ to beast to insects and birds."
NōꞋakh was an ish tza•diqꞋ, who was eugenically3 tâm•imꞋ and had three sons (Sheim, Khâm and Yâ•phëtꞋ); and NōꞋakh busied himself with the ël•oh•imꞋ.

Questions you might anticipate that your child might raise and be prepared to discuss:
Eugenics is an essentially racist belief that, by NōꞋakh's time, had certainly derived from the ancient Egyptian belief, tracing back to the First Dynasty – 700 years before NōꞋakh and the Ma•bulꞋ. Egyptian Par•ohꞋs were thought to be gods descended, by purity of family bloodline, from gods. Par•ohꞋ was thought to be the current Moses vessel of the divine bloodline. This god-incarnate claim of divine bloodline, with its assumed accompanying "divine right to rule," resurfaced 2500 years later in the form of Hellenizing Christian rulers of the Roman Empire laying the idolatrous – and racist – claim to be descended from the vessel of divine blood (namely, the Virgin Mary), encrypted as the "Holy Grail." Descendance from this "Holy Grail" was later claimed by European "royal" families of Europe and the Middle East and, according to some rumors, even the American presidency – each claiming to be the current "Holy Grail" of the "divine bloodline."
