Genesis 11:1-9 KJV

[1] And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech. [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. [3] And they said one to another, Go to, let us make brick, and burn them throughly. And they had brick for stone, and slime had they for morter. [4] And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth. [5] And the Lord came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men builded. [6] And the Lord said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do. [7] Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another’s speech. [8] So the Lord scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off to build the city. [9] Therefore is the name of it called Babel; because the Lord did there confound the language of all the earth: and from thence did the Lord scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth.

They were all on one language. They knew and could understand one another. They wanted to reach God by building a tower. The Tower of Babel is what it is called now because it is where the Lord confounded their language. This place was not called Babel before this time. It was a plain in the land of Shinar. That is all we know as of now. Where is this land? Can one go to this tower today and see how far these men got that we’re building this tower? I can not say for sure but I believe this tower is gone. There is no tourist attraction where you can go to see it. There are no news casts stating how men have joined together again and going to build this tower to heaven. It is not there but what is interesting here is how God, confused their language, scattered them abroad, and was still able to move the languages together. For instance, the French speaking people went together. The English were together, the Japanese were together, and so on. I’m not saying that is what each language was called but that is how they are known now.

Romans 8:28 KJV

[28] And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.
