The Babel story illustrates humanity's ambition without God’s guidance, demonstrating that pride leads to ruin. True purpose is glorifying God, not seeking personal greatness.
The People of Babel: Ambition Without God
Man’s Self-Worship & God’s Hope
In Genesis 11, amidst humanity's unfaithfulness, God works to fulfill His redemptive plan. He opposes self-worship and scatters those who seek to glorify themselves. Despite man's failings, God chooses Shem and Abraham's lineage for His salvation plan, demonstrating his ability to bring hope in desperate situations. We are called to honor God's plan, despite human unfaithfulness.
