The Tower of Babel narrative is well known even in modern pop culture, but do you know the details of the story? "Babel" in Babylon means "gate of God", in the Hebrew context of the Old Testament it means "to mix" or "confuse", but in English we use babel to mean "confused noise". Our English understanding of the word most likely comes from this passage in Genesis 11, but did you know that this narrative also has a connection to the surrounding genealogy passages?
