Genesis 10:5

By these were the isles of the Gentiles divided in their lands; every one after his tongue, after their families, in their nations.

The dividing of the isles of the Gentiles in their lands belongs to the Genesis 10:1-32 account that gives the authentic, indeed the only authentic, origin of nations and history of the human race, unsullied by human pride or prejudice. It belongs to the most ancient and the most comprehensive history that men possess, come fresh from the Fountain of eternal truth. Throughout the ages a divine hand has preserved its purity. It lights up the far-distant past where human research seeks in vain to penetrate.

As part of the Holy Scriptures it makes the Bible without a rival as an educator. It stands together with the revelation of the power that laid the foundations of the earth and stretched out the heavens.
