The line narrows: Shem

Genesis 9:26–27

The first narrowing — blessing is spoken over the tents of Shem. Each toledoth of Genesis will narrow the field again.

26And he said, Blessed be Jehovah, the God of Shem; And let Canaan be his servant. 27God enlarge Japheth, And let him dwell in the tents of Shem; And let Canaan be his servant.
