Genesis 5:32

Genesis 5:32
This is an article on the births of Shem, Ham, and Japheth mentioned in Genesis 5:32. It is clear from Genesis 11 that not all of these three sons were born in Noah’s 500th year. This is because Shem had a son at age 100, two years after the Flood. Since Noah was 603 at the time Shem would have been born when Noah was 503. The most likely possibility is that Ham, or Japheth was actually the oldest born when Noah was 500.
