More on the idiom.

I got word from a friend who did some research on this passage on Noah and his nakedness. She sent word to me which that confirms that Biblical scholars disagree on the meaning of this passage. But I shared with her something that I failed to post earlier. No matter what happened between Ham and Noah, Ham had over-stepped his bounds in his efforts to pridefully advance himself beyond his rightful place. This was his sin and for this he was punished.
