Bible Question:
In Genesis 11:6,7 why was God upset with the people? Was it because they wanted to make a name for themselves, or because they thought they could reach Heaven? |
Bible Answer: Mainly it was their rebellion. God had told them to go and fill the earth (to spread out and populate creation) Gen 9:1. They however decided they knew better and decided to build a city in defiance of God. Under the leadership of Nimrod they entered into open rebellion to God’s command therefore God reacted as He did.
