Episode Title: The Division of Nations: From Human Government to the Times of the Gentiles – Waiting for Grace and Truth Series: 2026 Through the Bible – Daily Readings in Genesis Episode Date: January 3, 2026 Reading: Genesis 8–10 (Focus on Genesis 10 – The Table of Nations)
Description:
Many of us skim the long lists of names in the Bible, wondering why God included them. But in Genesis 10—the Table of Nations—we find one of the most fundamental chapters for understanding the word of God dispensationally.
In this episode, we slow down and pay close attention to how God sovereignly divided mankind after the Flood into nations under the Dispensation of Human Government. Gentiles lived for centuries accountable only by conscience and the Noahic covenant—never under the Mosaic Law.
We trace God's plan: calling Israel out of those nations to be a kingdom of priests, meant to display His holiness and teach His perfect ways to the watching world. Yet Israel failed in that priestly witness, leading to divine judgment and the beginning of the prophetic "times of the Gentiles"—a period of Gentile dominion over Jerusalem that continues to this day.
The Gentile nations paid a heavy price for Israel's unfaithfulness, sinking deeper into darkness while waiting centuries for fuller light.
But praise God—the wait ended when grace and truth came by Jesus Christ. He is the true Light to the Gentiles and the fulfillment of everything Israel was called (but failed) to be.
Using only the Authorized Version 1611 (AV1611) and classic dispensational teaching, we rightly divide the word of truth, showing God's distinct dealings with Gentiles and Israel, magnifying the glory of grace in this Church Age, and looking forward to Israel's future restoration.
Whether you're new to dispensationalism or a longtime student, this episode will help you see Genesis 10 not as a dry list, but as the blueprint for God's sovereign plan that points ultimately to Christ.
