    3. In the beginning
    4. In the beginning was the Word , and the Word was with God , and the Word was God . The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made . In him was life; and the life was the light of men. And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not. (John 1:1-5)

    32. Genesis 11:1-9
      • And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech.
      • And it came to pass, as they journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar; and they dwelt there.
      • And they said one to another, Go to, let us make brick, and burn them thoroughly. And they had brick for stone, and slime had they for mortar.
      • And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth.
      • And the Lord came down to see the city and the tower, which the children builded.
      • And the Lord said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do.
      • Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another's speech.
      • So the Lord scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off to build the city.
      • Therefore is the name of it called Babel (confusion); because the Lord did there confound the language of all the earth: and from thence did the Lord scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth.
    33. Genesis 11:1-9
      • And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech.
      • And the Lord said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language ; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do .
