Genesis 9:25–27: Who Was Cursed, and Why Not Ham
Noah's pronouncement in Genesis 9:25–27 falls on Canaan, and the passage never mentions skin, race, or Africa. The curse concerns servitude among Noah's descendants, and reading it as a curse on black skin adds something the text does not say.
Genesis 9:20–27: Who Was Cursed, and Was It Skin?
People have used Genesis 9 to claim Scripture curses a race with dark skin. The passage itself curses Canaan, Ham's son, and never mentions skin color at all.
