Don’t Steal the Glory of God
Chapter 10-11 explain the origin of
nations after the flood. Beginning
with Noah and his three sons,
God repopulates the world. But
since the root of sin has not been

disobedient actions. God deals
with human failure by scrambling
the languages, causing humanity
to disperse over the face of the
earth as God originally commanded

tower whose top is in the heavens;
let us make a name for ourselves…
And the Lord said… let’s confuse
their language, that they may not
understand one another’s speech.
