Curse of Canaan

The Curse of Canaan
Genesis 9:25: "And he said, Cursed be Canaan; a servant of servants shall he be unto his brethren,"

It is noteworthy that the curse was made by Noah, not by God. Some biblical scholars claim that when a curse is made by a man, it could only have been effective if God supports it, unlike the curse of Ham and his descendants, which was not confirmed by God[29] or, at least, it is not mentioned in the Bible that he had confirmed it.

The Curse of Canaan.
Knaanic (also called Canaanic, Leshon Knaan, Judaeo-Czech, or Judaeo-Slavic) is an extinct West Slavic Jewish language, formerly spoken in the lands of the Western Slavs, notably the Czech lands, but also the lands of modern Poland, Lusatia and other Sorbian regions. It became extinct in the Late Middle Ages.

The term Canaan was used by Jews in Europe for the Slavic people, as a punning reference to the so-called "curse of Canaan" (Genesis 9:25), that Canaan shall "be a slave".
