Babel: A City in the Plain of Shinar--Tower Built, and Tongues Confused At

Source: Nav

Genesis 11:1–9 Now the whole world had one language and a common form of speech. / And as people journeyed eastward, they found a plain in the land of Shinar and settled there. / And they said to one another, “Come, let us make bricks and bake them thoroughly.” So they used brick instead of stone, and tar instead of mortar.
