Reading Notes: Noah Part B


For Part B I would like to look at one story, the Tower of Babel.

Plot: Men wanting to reach heaven built a giant structure that reached up into the skies. Men would spend their lives building it brick by brick. God being displeased by these men’s arrogance scattered them and made them all to speak differing languages. That was not all those that wanted to set up idols and worship other gods in heaven were transformed into creatures. The men suffered all these fates because of the hate these men had for each other. God reserved Hebrew for his chosen people.

Significant Characters: God- Creator of the universe and Lord of heaven. Men- Those trying to reach heaven.

Bibliography: Louis Ginzberg, The Legends of the Jews
