And the sons of Midian; Ephah, and Epher, and Hanoch, and Abidah, and Eldaah. All these were the children of Keturah.

-- Gen. 25:4 (KJV)

This verse details the lineage of Midian. All of these sons lived in what is now known as Saudi Arabia. In Book I, Chapter 15 of the classic by Flavius Josephus called "Antiquities," Ephah defeated the Libyans in battle and took the land. After he took the land, he renamed it Africa after his name. If the Bible is false, then Saudi Arabia and Africa would not exist. Coincidentally, the name Ephah means darkness.

Numerical Analysis: The numerical pattern for this verse is 7,4,2,5. (7) Be perfected by God in order to bear fruit. (4) The name Ephah means "darkness." Stay in God's Word to be free from wickedness. (2) The name Epher means "young deer or calf." Walk in God's kingdom in order to retain your youth and vitality as you grow older. (5) The name Hanoch means "dedicated." To stay in God's presence, remain dedicated to Him.
