Ham the father of Canaan uncovered the nakedness his father Noah,

and then he decides to call his brothers (Japhet and Shem) to also come and be entertained by their father’s naked body as in Genesis 9:21-22

And Thus it is written; Leviticus 18:7

The nakedness of your father or the nakedness of your mother you shall not uncover.

She is your mother; you shall not uncover her nakedness.

To uncover one’s nakedness refers to the act of having sexual intercourse…. 


Leviticus 20:17; A brother seeing his sister’s nakedness was considered to be a wicked thing…

When Noah was drunk and lying naked in his tent (Genesis 9:20-23), his younger son called “Ham” used his father’s weakness to entertain his craving immoral sexual desires. 


He saw the nakedness of his father and also uncovered his father’s nakedness.

Ham abused his father sexually by performing the acts of sodomy (known as homosexuality) upon his own father, some comentary says; he even castrated him.

When his father woke up from his drunkenness, and found out what his son had done, he decide to curse the act of sodomy which became a practiced ritual and custom among the canaanites.

Read also Genesis 9:24-27.

Genesis 9:24-27;
New King James Version (NKJV)
24 So Noah awoke from his wine, and knew what his younger son had done to him.

25 Then he said:

“Cursed be Canaan; A servant of servants He shall be to his brethren.

” 26 And he said: “Blessed be the Lord, The God of Shem, And may Canaan be his servant. 27 May God enlarge Japheth, And may he dwell in the tents of Shem; And may Canaan be his servant.”
