Genesis Nine - Uncovering Nakedness


"And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brothers outside. But Shem and Japheth took a garment, laid it on both their shoulders, and went backward and covered the nakedness of their father. Their faces were turned away, and they did not see their father’s nakedness," Genesis 9:22-23, NKJV. #UncoveringNakedness
Exposing the nakedness of relatives who are near of kin is highly frowned upon by God and considered a sin; when the scripture speaks of this humiliating act, it is directly related to shame, and most often deals with uncovering women.
Leviticus 18:6-19, 1 Samuel 20:30-31 and Revelation 3:18.
