Bible Question: hi why did God confuse these people's language? wouldn't it have been better to have had one language through out the world. thanks |
Bible Answer: Paz63: Your questions presumably refer to the tower of Babel. You ask, "Why did God confuse these people's language?" Because He did! [And we weren't around at the time to advise Him!] ...... You ask further, "Wouldn't it have been better to have had one language throughout the world?" What? And put translators out of a job? :-) Seriously, friend, who are we to suggest a better course to God? "For My thoughts are not your thoughts, nor are your ways My ways," declares the Lord." [Isaiah 55:8] --Hank |
