Ham's descendants had their own languages, tribes, and land. They were Ethiopia, Egypt, Put, and Canaan. Cush was the ancestor of Seba, Havilah, Sabtah, Raamah, and Sabteca. Raamah was the ancestor of Sheba and Dedan. Cush was also the ancestor of Nimrod, a mighty warrior whose strength came from the Lord . Nimrod is the reason for the saying, "You hunt like Nimrod with the strength of the Lord !" Nimrod first ruled in Babylon, Erech, and Accad, all of which were in Babylonia. From there Nimrod went to Assyria and built the great city of Nineveh. He also built Rehoboth-Ir and Calah, as well as Resen, which is between Nineveh and Calah. Egypt was the ancestor of Ludim, Anamim, Lehabim, Naphtuhim, Pathrusim, Casluhim, and Caphtorim, the ancestor of the Philistines. Canaan's sons were Sidon and Heth. He was also the ancestor of the Jebusites, the Amorites, the Girgashites, the Hivites, the Arkites, the Sinites, the Arvadites, the Zemarites, and the Hamathites. Later the Canaanites spread from the territory of Sidon and went as far as Gaza in the direction of Gerar. They also went as far as Lasha in the direction of Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboiim.
Shem's descendants had their own languages, tribes, and land. He was the older brother of Japheth and the ancestor of the tribes of Eber. Shem was the ancestor of Elam, Asshur, Arpachshad, Lud, and Aram. Aram was the ancestor of Uz, Hul, Gether, and Mash. Arpachshad was the father of Shelah and the grandfather of Eber, whose first son was named Peleg, because it was during his time that tribes divided up the earth. Eber's second son was Joktan. Joktan was the ancestor of Almodad, Sheleph, Hazarmaveth, Jerah, Hadoram, Uzal, Diklah, Obal, Abimael, Sheba, Ophir, Havilah, and Jobab. Their land reached from Mesha in the direction of Sephar, the hill country in the east.
Because Noah had faith, he was warned about something that had not yet happened. He obeyed and built a boat that saved him and his family. In this way the people of the world were judged, and Noah was given the blessings that come to everyone who pleases God.
Gill's Notes on the Bible
But prophesy not again any more at Bethel,.... He might prophesy any where, if he did not there, for what the priest cared, that so his honour and interest were not hurt. The reasons he gave were,
for it [is] the king's chapel; or "sanctuary" i; where a temple was built for the idol calf, and where the king worshipped it, and attended all other religious service:
and it [is] the king's court; or "the house of the kingdom" k; the seat of it, where the king had a royal palace, and sometimes resided here, and kept his court, as well as at Samaria; often coming hither to worship, it being nearer to him than Dan, where the other calf was placed; intimating hereby that the king would never suffer such a troublesome man as he to be so near him; and by prophesying to interrupt him, either in his religious or civil affairs; and therefore advises him by all means to depart, if he had any regard to his life or peace.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
It is the kingâs chapel - Better, as in the English margin, âsanctuary.â It is the name for âthe sanctuaryâ of God. âLet them make Me a sanctuary, that I may dwell among themâ Exodus 25:8. âYe shall reverence My sanctuary: I am the Lordâ Leviticus 19:30; Leviticus 26:2. It is most often spoken of as, âThe sanctuaryâ ; elsewhere, but always with emphasis, of reverence, sanctity, devotion, protection, it is called âHis sanctuary; My sanctuary; Thy sanctuary; the sanctuary of the Lord of God, of his God ; whence God Himself is called âa sanctuaryâ Isaiah 8:14; Ezekiel 11:16, as a place of refuge. In three places only, is it called the sanctuary of Israel; âher sanctuary.â God, in His threat to cast them off, says, âI will bring your sanctuaries to desolationâ Leviticus 26:31; Jeremiah laments, âthe pagan have entered into her sanctuaryâ Lamentations 1:10; he says, âthe place of our sanctuary is a glorious high throne from the beginningâ Jeremiah 17:12, inasmuch as God was enthroned there.
In this case too it is âthe sanctuary forâ Israel, not a mere property of Israel. âThe sanctuary of Godâ could not he called the sanctuary of any man. One man could not so appropriate âthe sanctuary.â God had ordained it for Himself. His presence had sanctified it. Heresy, in unconsciousness, lets out more truth than it means. A high priest at Jerusalem could not have said this. He knew that âthe templeâ was the âsanctuaryâ of God, and could not have called it the âkingâs sanctuary.â The sanctuary at Bethel had no other sanction, than what it had from the king. Jeroboam I consecrated it and its priests 1 Kings 12:31-33; and from him it and they had their authority. Amaziah wished to use a popular plea to rid himself of Amos. Bethel was âthe kingâs sanctuary and the house,â not of God, but âof the kingdom,â that is, âthe house,â which had the whole royal sanction, which with its Worship was the creature of royal authority, bound up in one with the kingdom, and belonging to it.
Or it may be, âa royal house,â (not a palace, or court, for the kingâs palace was at Samaria, but) âa royal temple,â the state-Church. So the Arians betrayed their worldliness by dating one of their Creeds from the Roman Consuls of the year, its month and dayâ , thereby to show all thinking people, that their faith dates, not of old but now.â Their faith was of yesterday. âThey are accustomed to say,â says Jerome, âthe Emperor communicates with us, and, if anyone resists them, immediately they calumniate. âActest thou against the Emperor? Despisest thou the Emperorâs mandate?â And yet we may think, that many Christian kings who have persecuted the Church of God, and essayed to establish the Arian impiety in the whole world, surpass in guilt Jeroboam king of Israel. He despised the message of a false priest, nor would he make any answer to his suggestions. But these, with their many Amaziahpriests, have slain Amos the prophet and the priest of the Lord by hunger and penury, dungeons and exile.â
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Amos 7:13. But prophesy not - at Beth-el — He must not speak against idolatry, because that was the king's religion; and he who speaks against the king's religion must be an enemy to the state. This was the doctrine held in England by popish James II. and his insidious Jesuit hireling priests, till God in his mercy put this pitiful tyrant down, and with him his false prophets, and the degrading superstition which they endeavoured to establish in these lands.
