The souls that appeared from Noach to Israel became the roots of the seventy nations. They did not appear all at once, rather progressively. The enumeration below follows the kabbalistic counting, based on the following rules:
* Each time the verse names a child without further describing his progeny, that child was father of one of the seventy nations. These nations are named after their patriarch with the additional suffix ''-ite''. * Starting the children of Shem, the terms "sons and daughters" refers to progeny over and above what had been mentioned previously (except in the case of ''Ever''). This unamed progeny also refers to one of the seventy nations. These nations are named after their patriarch with the additional suffix ''-ian''.
* The last three nations are Ishmael, Esav and Israel.
They are numbered from 1 to 70 in order of appearance. Names marked in italics are represented by their children.
