Summary

The Tower of Babel was built after Noah’s Great Flood. Yahweh had told Noah and his sons to go out and multiply on the Earth and they did have children and multiply, but they disobeyed when it came to dispersing. They stayed in one area and shared one language and they decided to build themselves a city with a great tower to the heavens. What exactly was this tower and why did Yahweh decide to spread many languages and confuse their efforts? What were these men creating? Clearly, this stone tower didn’t rise to the heights of our modern-day skyscrapers. And who exactly was Nimrod who seems to have led these efforts? Did the men of Babel create a portal for the gods to come through?
