What was Accomplished at Babel?

Therefore is the name of it called Babel; 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. 

Genesis 11:9

"The Tower of Babel was a post-Flood rebellion against God by
Noah’s descendants. 

 

God judged them by 

---dividing the single language into multiple language families. 

---As these groups spread out and became isolated, certain features (e.g. skin shade, eye shape) became dominant in certain groups.

---God stepped in to prevent the human race from falling under the sway of a single, absolute tyrant over all the earth." AIG
