Most of us were taught that the Tower of Babel is a story about pride. People got arrogant, they built a tower, God didn't like that so He shut it down. But that's not actually what the text is telling us!

Babel isn't about skyscrapers or technology. It's about authority.

And by the end of this video, you're going to see that God did not INTERVENE because humans were TOO capable — He intervened because they were about to steal an authority that would have destroyed them.
