Midweek Devotional: Genesis 5 - 11
GENESIS 11
\nThe Tower of Babel
\n1 Now the whole world had one language and a common speech.\xa02 As people moved eastward,\xa0they found a plain in Shinar\xa0and settled there. 3 They said to each other, \u201cCome, let\u2019s make bricks and bake them thoroughly.\u201d They used brick instead of stone, and tar for mortar.\xa04 Then they said, \u201cCome, let us build ourselves a city, with a tower that reaches to the heavens, so that we may make a name for ourselves; otherwise we will be scattered over the face of the whole earth.\u201d
\n5 But the\xa0Lord\xa0came down to see the city and the tower the people were building.\xa06 The\xa0Lord\xa0said, \u201cIf as one people speaking the same language they have begun to do this, then nothing they plan to do will be impossible for them.\xa07 Come, let us go down and confuse their language so they will not understand each other.\u201d 8 So the\xa0Lord\xa0scattered them from there over all the earth, and they stopped building the city.\xa09 That is why it was called Babel\u2014because there the\xa0Lord\xa0confused the language of the whole world. From there the\xa0Lord\xa0scattered them over the face of the whole earth.
