Tower of Babel

Interesting to know the biblical concept of Origin of the Language                                                                                                       
"Gate of God" (from bab "gate" + ilu "god"). Meaning "confused medley of sounds"  The name is a translation of Sumerian Ka-dingir.


"They are one people and have one language, and nothing will be withholden from them which they purpose to do."  
It is fun to learn how Bible explains about language. I've been thinking if only we all have only one language to share, how easy communication would be.
Amused by this phrase of the site.
God intentionally scattered mankind to retard their technological advancement by confusing their speech.
Even explained "This action effectively speciated humans into several groups allowing physical differences to develop."
