Bible Study Genesis Chapter 11
Vs: 1 And the whole earth was on language, and of one speech.
NOW; THIS EARTH IS AGAIN AN INHABITED AREA, and here were Adamites in large numbers.
Vs: 2 And it came to pass as they journeyed from the east that they found a plain in the land of Shinar, and they dwelt there. This plain of Shinar later became known as Babylonia.
Vs: 3 And they said one to another, “Go to, let us make brick and burn them thoroughly and they had brick for stone and slime had they for mortar.
Vs: 4 And they said: “Let us build us a city, and a tower, whose top may reach unto the heavens, and let us make us a name lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth.
Now; these Adamites, here the Shemites and Hamites especially, did build a great city, and they set out to build a great tower and it was in those days called a Zuggernot, and on top of that tower was to be an observatory from which they could watch the heavens, for they knew that in the sky would come this sign signifying that the time of the Messiah was drawing nigh. They knew they were Adamites and they knew the promises, and they wanted to stay close together until their restoration, did they not?
But to build this great tower it would take lots of workmen, thus they were bringing in people from the surrounding areas to work on the tower. To protect himself and his people the king declared that only language of the land, Chaldean could be spoken by all these working on the tower so that no conspiracy could be planned.
