  • Japeth was the son of Noah and the brother of Ham and Shem. Japeth is traditionally considered to be the ancestor of various Indoeuropean nations.
  • Japheth, sometimes referred to as Japhet or Japeth Cappadocius, was the faithful childe of Cappadocius. He warned his sire never to embrace the necromancer Augustus Giovanni. Supposedly, Japheth was diablerised by Claudius Giovanni - although he might be the mysterious figure known as the Capuchin.
  • Japheth was the oldest of the three sons of Noah . Born about 100 years before the Great Flood , he would take a wife to bring upon the ark sometime before the doors were closed . They would have seven children after the flood . Some time after the flood, when his father had become a farmer, his younger brother Ham came to him and Shem , speaking evil of their father. Taking Ham at his word, his brothers devised a way of covering their naked father without having to look upon his unclothed body. Based on the names of his sons and other descendants, his people migrated north away from Babel after the confusion of tongues. Theirs would be what would become known as the Indo-European languages . Ancient "genealogy" tables portend to list names going back to his descendants, the founders of eastern European nations, as well as verifiable migrants from those nations (such as the Scottish tribes). Biblical descendants of Japheth would be the Greeks (Javan) , the Medes (Madai) , and the Romans.
  • Japheth is often regarded as the youngest son, though some traditions regard him as the eldest. They are listed in the order Shem, Ham, and Japheth in Genesis 5:32 and 9:18, but treated in the reverse order in chapter 10. Genesis 10:21 refers to relative ages of Japheth and his brother Shem, but with sufficient ambiguity to have given rise to different translations. The verse is translated in the KJV as follows, "Unto Shem also, the father of all the children of Eber, the brother of Japheth the elder, even to him were children born". However, the Revised Standard Version reads, "To Shem also, the father of all the children of Eber, the elder brother of Japheth, children were born." The differing interpretations depend on whether the Hebrew word ha-gadol ("the elder") is taken as grammatically referring to Japheth, or Shem. Genesis 5:32 states that Noah had three sons when he was five hundred years old. Genesis 11:10 records that Shem was one hundred years old when his son Arphaxad was born, two years after the Flood. If Noah was six hundred years old (Genesis 7:13), then Shem was ninety-eight years old at the Flood. Ham is further implied to be the middle son in Gen. 9:24 (which says Noah realized what his "younger son" had done to him.) The Book of Jubilees indicates in 4:33 that Shem was born in the year of the world (after creation) 1205, Ham in 1209, and Japheth in 1211.
