[@stevedyches4635]

@@davidlonhol8016 Not that I'm aware of. It is my understanding that Nimrod means "to fall away", "to rebel". In modern American English terms, fool or jerk. Here's a bit more about the name according to Metaphysical interpretation. Metaphysical meaning of Nimrod (mbd) Nimrod, nim-rod (Heb.)--self-ruling will; arbitrary sway; fallen from allegiance; insubordination; rebellion; revolution; anarchy; despotism; misrule; impiety. a Son of Cush. "He was a mighty hunter before Jehovah" (Gen. 10:8, 9). b The land of Nimrod (Mic. 5:6). Meta. Nimrod ("a mighty one in the earth," also, "a mighty hunter before Jehovah," and meaning self-ruling will, arbitrary sway, rebellion, despotism, misrule) pertains to the rule of personal will in the animal forces of the organism; also to a material belief in courage and might. The adverse phase of the ruling personal will of man is under the observation of Jehovah, the true Christ self of the individual, since the will, in the process of unfoldment spiritually, must be cleansed of its adverseness and be made subject to and unified with the divine will. Nimrod brought forth in the material, as is evidenced by Genesis 10:10: "And the beginning of his kingdom was Babel, and Erech, and Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar." (See the metaphysical interpretations of these names.)

Believe it or not, the tower of Babel incident was between two Anunnaki factions. The same two which have caused all the wars in history. And yes they were building to heaven, in the sense of rocket ships to Nibiru. I know it sounds crazy but the bible is full of amazing mysteries that gods wants us to discover. Read the lost book of Enki by Zachary Sitchen, it's on youtube, it's full of old testament stories and the possible truth behind them. The book is supposedly translated from ancient sumerian text, from the first civilization after the flood. Making it much closer to the source than the possible corrupted or purposeful altered versions we see in the bible today.

[@edwardbrown7571]

The Tower of Babel was part of a much greater rebellion against the Creating God, which happens often down through history over and over. Semiramis was Nimrod's mother, who killed her husband hoping to gain his self-proclaimed kingly authority. She ruled until Nimrod became of age. Then she started an Oedipus relationship with her son, and eventually married her son in order to retain some of her old authority. Semiramis proclaimed they were earthly gods, and the people bought into it like sheep. The ziggurat was a stepped pyramid like structure, which Nimrod promised higher levels of protection against another flood if you showed your loyalty to him and his mother by being boot lickers and ass kissers. The more loyalty you showed the earthly gods, the higher up the ziggurat you could stand on, if another flood should come. Eber, Abraham's great great great grandfather refused to bow to Nimrod and his murderous power hungry mother, usurping divinity and claiming to be human gods. This loyalty to God shown by Eber caught God's attention. People were living to be 900 plus years old, so Abraham knew his spiritual, God following, great grandfather Eber. Semramis started the first extreme misandrious male hating philosophy that we see repeating it self again with Jezebel in scriptures, and we now see being reproduced so prevalent in modern America. Eber walked away from faux hope on a string earthly promises, and followed his spiritual unctions concerning God, and this was eventually blessed through Abraham's blessings, which started the Hebraic faith, not Judaism. Judaism would not occur for hundreds of years later long after Judah was born. This four generations later blessing, which was bestowed on Eber's great grand child should be an awe inspiring thought for modern grandparents in a time when globalists are hell bent on destroying the most basic primordial family unit... Or... Maybe not... Never take what I write at face value unless you can prove it to yourself... But are you acting in unselfish ways that cause God to watch and ponder over your family all the way down to your grandchildren... Or... Not...

LAMENTATIONS Dear Rabbi Manis Friedman I thought that only enemies of the Torah would seek to cause confusion in those who praise. I read in the Book of Psalms by Ohel Yossef Yitschak, that BELONGS the Holy Scriptures that after MASHIACH forgive the sins of the people, that is, IN THE FUTURE, the only sacrifice that will exist and that of thanksgiving. then I OBSERVED something that makes this statement compatible. Instead of him saying Hallelujah, come with me that I'm getting rid of TORAH. And what was my observation? Question from N.1 If the word "VIVÍ" used in (I lived) in Hebrew "GARTI" has Numeric Value VN = 613 and, as VIVÍ is not referred to the future, but to the past, it means that in the future it will no longer be the 613 commandments of the Torah fulfilled?

Then might the confusion start the wandering of Terah and his son?

[@Grandliseur]

You need to contemplate scripture more, meditate on the matters said. God told us why he confused their languages! Gen 11:6-8 ASV 6 And Jehovah said, Behold, they are one people, and they have all one language; and this is what they begin to do: and now nothing will be withholden from them, which they purpose to do. 7. ... 8 So Jehovah scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off building the city. If mankind stayed in one location having one single language, nothing would be impossible for them. What this tells us is that their technological avances would take them to where we are today in perhaps a very short time. There would be no march of nations, no separation into nations, Jews, Chinese, Japanese, Germans, Africans and all of what that implies. Their actions were not sinful as such; rather, these were going against God's purposes, his plans for mankind. Without national groups developing into nations and races, there would be no people of God, no Abraham to select, and no Israel - which would mean no Messianic redemption as promised in the prophecy of Genesis 3:14, 15. This circumvention of God's plan could not be tolerated; this is why God dispersed them all over the world, and to get them to disperse they had to feel separate from their fellow humans. The giving them different tongues did that. No longer being able to communicate with other families, their only choice was for each family to go their own way.

This leads to them not living up to there potential. You can ascribe this similar theory in marriage that is supposed to be a union, and how a simple disagreement sows the seeds of doubt, your mind can race off into so many thoughts about a single event and each thought is essentially creating more smaller thoughts until you eventually dissolve the union.

M’Berashet Katov.... "Come, let us build ourselves a city, with a tower that reaches to the heavens, so that we may make a name for ourselves” This sentence is spoken in high levels of Pride...

I liked it! Lol. From my understanding, just to put it in different words, everyone was in total agreement that they didn’t need God. They were also totally in sync with each other, working together, to show that they didn’t need God. Building the tower was not necessarily the wrong, but the idea of they can accomplish anything on their own, was the wrong. (Even though, who knows, stopping them from building the tower was mercy towards them, and us all, for by breaking them up and scattering them, gave them a chance to be in need of help. It was a chance for them to look to God for help). I’ve also surmised that Nimrod was a part of this endeavor, perhaps a leader of sorts. He was quoted to have said he wanted to climb to the top and shoot God with his bow and arrow. I suppose at one time the name Nimrod was associated with being a great hunter, fighter, and very smart. Isn’t it ironic (and fitting) that we associate that name now with being a numbskull and a fool.

[@SaintRegime]

Nimrod became an insult because Bugs Bunny sarcastically mocked Elmer Fudd by calling him the name of the great hunter. In similar vein, people think Rabbits like carrots.

Would you be an asshole if you pushed someone who cannot swim, into the deep end of a pool, just to save them? 100% breeding is an egregious crime against the born. Because breeders don’t have consent and they’re handing out a death sentence. At the very least, that makes intentional breeding tantamount to kidnapping and murder. Breeding is the harm that entails all other harm. It is to unnecessarily open the door to every conceivable pain, anguish and horror, for no good reason. To breed is to cater to the lowest rung within physical reality. It is an appeal to the lowest most vain nature in animals and an affront to the highest principles of logic and reason. It is a futile egoic pursuit of evolutionary perfection, which marks a grave reflection upon the soul in need of forging another profane representation in response to its origins of deprivation and subsequently its continuum. Where do breeders get the “right” to impose unnecessary risk, suffering and death without consent? “To force non-consenting humans into this world is to bring wood into a burning building.” Breeders are the root of all evil.

This view very untruthful and wrong. The biggest pyramids were built to collect water. Their surface were made total smoothly covered. Since in that time rain very rarely fallen and to get water from the ground had to dig 60 m deep. The shape of the pyramid helped to collect the dew which accumulated up on its surface during the night and the angle helped to collect the waterdrops together and they flow downwards. That is why the Gizeh plato has a stone surface, because there were the water collected, and from that height they could drive down to the city next to it the water into every household. They weren't selfish with their knowledge, because pyramids were built in Bosnia-Herzegovina, in China, in Spain and in South America as well, so who wanted to use the same technic, they could use, there weren't copyright for it. Maybe some other nation used for plantation, I don't know, since I am not really at home with the rest of the pyramids. So, blaming Egyptians with such an accusation what you said, it is rather reflect a mind of people, who were unable to read or write, they heard or seen something and started to gossip before the masterpiece were done just based on their ununderstanding or their jealousy. They didn't need to reach the Heaven, because their God lived and walked with them, the Heaven surrounded them from every angle. You all so proud of yourself, thinking you took away from us, but no.

I’m Christian but I think hearing the Jewish accounts of this are so cool . I love hearing about this stuff .

[@joseluisalcantarasanchez269]

So...in order to deal with the purpose of the tower as stated in scripture, one has to concede that those people were really technologically advanced, able to build a space ship?! Right from the start: were they able to build anything to reach God, be it a tower or a space ship? Was God to be afraid of men reaching to him? I think the asumptions made in this video are far too compromised. About the story of that tower....the place where it was being build, exactly the area where DNA haplogroups diversified, the place where the diferent ethnic groups were born. What is more distinctive of any ethnic group than its language?

Not afraid but as a tool because really I moved America no one knew I did languages with left hand while the right hand I moved America and south America a thousand miles in ,5 minutes they felt it because i moved rhem 500 hundred the other way and America 500 the other way so they thoughts we all died and my paradise was America

[@samwilson3d]

God is so poor a story teller, that the Bible needs this guy to explain it by adding things it doesn't say. Makes sense.

[@kpeezy776]

Why does this guy work so hard to make scripture so convoluted? You are literallydoing the opposite of this title.

[@yvonne530]

Giuseppe Catapano: "Atlantida which disappeared 12,000 years ago, was the land of the Pelasgians (ancestors of Albanians), who escaped the flood of Atlantis and began new civilizations on all continents, especially in Europe, Africa and small Asia". THOTH spoke Albanian! Thot means "to say" in Albanian Language. The Albanian Language is a proto Indo-European language, the Babel language indeed. Science Magazine 2023 declared Albanian Language older than 8000 years old.

Genesis actually gives us the reasoning in the scriptures, in both cases. For the Flood: 6 When human beings began to increase in number on the earth and daughters were born to them, *2 the sons of God saw that the daughters of humans were beautiful, and they married any of them they chose. 3 Then the Lord said, “My Spirit will not contend with humans forever,* for they are mortal; their days will be a hundred and twenty years.” 4 *The Nephilim were on the earth in those days-and also afterward-when the sons of God went to the daughters of humans and had children by them. They were the heroes of old, men of renown.* 5 *The Lord saw how great the wickedness of the human race had become on the earth, and that every inclination of the thoughts of the human heart was only evil all the time. 6 The Lord regretted that he had made human beings on the earth, and his heart was deeply troubled.* 7 So the Lord said, “I will wipe from the face of the earth the human race I have created-and with them the animals, the birds and the creatures that move along the ground-for I regret that I have made them.” 8 But Noah found favor in the eyes of the Lord. - And for the Tower: Now the whole world had one language and a common speech. 2 As people moved eastward,[a] they found a plain in Shinar[b] and settled there. 3 They said to each other, “Come, let’s make bricks and bake them thoroughly.” They used brick instead of stone, and tar for mortar. 4 *Then they said, “Come, let us build ourselves a city, with a tower that reaches to the heavens, so that we may make a name for ourselves; otherwise we will be scattered over the face of the whole earth.”* 5 But the Lord came down to see the city and the tower the people were building. 6 The Lord said, *“If as one people speaking the same language they have begun to do this, then nothing they plan to do will be impossible for them.* 7 Come, let us go down and confuse their language so they will not understand each other.”

[@DennisCNolasco]

Thank you for your explanation rabbi.

[@TheBrianjsharp]

Gen 11:4-6 …4 “Come,” they said, “let us build for ourselves a city with a tower that reaches to the heavens, that we may make a name for ourselves and not be scattered over the face of all the earth.” 5 Then the LORD came down to see the city and the tower that the sons of men were building. 6 And the LORD said, “If they have begun to do this as one people speaking the same language, then nothing they devise will be beyond them.… no moon mentioned. just read as is , this god is afraid of human possibilities.. my God is the God of ACTS 17:24-30 The Creator of the entire universe and all things...

[@rameezilyas9747]

It's my earnestly request to you sir please make a Video on Genesis 6. Thank you

[@jeanjaz]

Noach was saved from the flood because he was the most righteous of his generation. His generation was destroyed because their thoughts were evil. This is found written in Genesis. When you listen to teachers, make sure you read, and study, for yourself. Only take to heart those teachings that line up with the Torah. The rest, set aside - don't automatically trash it. It is possible you will see it differently later in life.

[@mdmonroe82]

That is a wild interpretation but interesting on some points. The humans in the first time period were described as "wicked" so he destroyed them. The second group became more enamored with themselves and what they could do. Man wanted to make their own way to Heaven and be on God's level. He did everyone a favor and dispersed man amd over time, each culture developed their own language. We all know a change in just language drives us apart. Humans are a wild card with free will, thus we are uncontrollable. He has to refine his product like any business does. The first iteration rarely stays unchanged because of unknown variables. The crap about going to the moon is downright outrageous. I'm not sure why you think humans then were so stupid. They knew why the stars existed (timing/seasons), they were capable of building grand objectd with precision. You honestly believe that they thought they were building to the moon? God knew humans were arrogant and the building would eventually fall killing thousands. He saved them from themselves.

[@jrYoutube1]

They would’ve been very smart in those times because they weren’t that far in genealogy from the first man which the Creator made perfect. We over time have most probably just diluted less and less smart. Sometimes we have a genius come into the world but it’s rare. But men lack wisdom of YHWH which is most important because we replace it with our ego.. because wisdom starts with YHWH and most men don’t want to start with YHWH so they rely on their smarts (understanding)which glorifies themselves. Proverbs 1:1~10 to fear YHWH is the beginning of knowledge but fools despise wisdom and instruction (this being knowledge and instruction of YHWH which leads to understanding then true wisdom).

[@yahusephlellock]

Those first twin towers of Babel up to the twin towers of 9/11. Hebrew order Isaiah 9:11 told what would happen if continued in money, murder and death, "the Arameans before[first tower] and the Pelishtites behind[second tower]...and His hand is still stretched out..." From the pair of sISTER towers that Rome built which to this day still poke out of the heart of the earth in a testament to the child murders therein on Herne Bay to almost every city in the world with their own sets of twin towers. It's all a blood bath and that cup of wrath will soon be met with the wrath of the Day of Yahueh. Taking care of all the peoples babblings of hISTORies mYSTERies as well, burning rESTORation down and returning a clean lip unto the peoples that they all call on the name of Yahueh, to serve Him with one shoulder, Zeph. 3 9. I was born 3/9/82 and Yahueh formed me in the womb to be a prophet unto the nations. I was 19 on 9/11. Repent, put down the sun Hanukkah candles and stop burning strange fire and burning incense to Ba'al God. Do not do the abomination which Yahueh hates, stop the morning matinee for Purim's Queen twin Ester 's morning star and be spared twISTER. Do not celebrate the d(ESTE)oyer/Easter but rejoice being Passed Over by applying the blood of the Lamb to your daily walk before it is no longer day.

[@TreadmillMixes01]

Sorry your explanation doesn’t make sense. Due to tribal conflict, early humans realised that most conflict was due to differences, mainly language. If there is a all knowing all controlling creator then this is by design whichever way you look at it, albeit a ‘demon’ doing the deed, it was permitted for a reason. To understand the moral of the story, the question you must ask is why does difference in language cause people to fight amongst each other. Good luck in your journey finding this answer out oh ye who are most tribalistic, I can’t put the answer on KZbin but it’s in everyone anyway

[@robertwilson8604]

Is it possible the tower of babel was a communications tower and after it was destroyed they could no longer communicate and had to disperse???

[@mikehalmajan7283]

For a supposed Jewish Rabbi, you have some really strange and unorthodox explanations of Genesis. This is what happens when you try and mix Biblical history with modern secularist thought. Stay true to the text and stop trying to please the atheists! The atheists will never accept you and your God either way because they simply reject God! When you conform and try to placate the Bible deniers, all you are doing is weakening your own faith! Stay true to the text and let God be God. 🙏

[@Mickmcdonagh28]

They should have known that the moon is a luminary

[@davidlonhol8016]

STOP talking about the Egyptian pyramids like it's only them who constructed it(btw, the Sphinx was there BEFORE the pyramids let that sink in). Ps: EVERY continent has a pyramid!

[@fivemjs]

Plus….before the flood there were a bunch of weird creatures running around since the fallen angels slept with human women. Sin was rampant. All types of sexual sins, mud ears, sacrifices etc. God was like…..nah.

[@GotAerialllc]

So you dont believe they built it as a direct affront to GOD, because that is what the bible says.. it dosent mention anything about going to the moon..

[@justmy2cents_]

C'mon ppl do we really believe God actually believed man could built a tower that could actually reach heaven when he supposedly gave man the knowledge or understanding to create such a structure?? God is omnipotent and omnipresent right??? So this story has to be metaphoric an allegory! Man can't even build one today that could reach over 2,716.5 ft but we're to believe in those days they could without the technology or machines that we have today! Ohh they used flying elephants to accomplish this magnificent feat I'm guessing! One born every minute!!

[@truthbetold2354]

The tower is means of being immortal. It's a spiral to point to the last attempt at this in the 21st century of DNA strand altering. This guy is teaching milk without the Holy Spirit to give spiritual revelation.

DNA serpent infiltrators through women. building a dark living temple. Most High is also building His. We are all living stones. Blessed be the name of the Most High and the LEVIticle lamb that was slain for us. His mercy endures forever!

[@quetzelmichaels1637]

It is a backwards story. The world will one day all speak the same language. The flood story tells us there will be waters above the dome of the sky. The fiery sword is the day of vengeance as judgment. Jacob is gripping the heel of Esau like the Shining One (Snake or Morning Star) grasping at the heel of Adam begging to quench his thirst. Noah treads the winepress of wrath and an end is put to all mortals on earth. The first creation story is about the new heaven and new earth. Light and vegetation are created before the sun and moon.

[@Outspoken.Humanist]

What nonsense. The tower of Babel story , like the rest of Genesis, is clearly a myth to explain differing languages. After the 5 miles deep waters of the flood disappeared (to where?) from the cleansed the earth, there was somehow enough food for animals and men to proliferate and Noah's sons found wives (from where?). The three of them had offspring which (in just 400 years) became the people of earth (but only the nations and regions known to the authors in the middle east, because they knew nothing of China or south America, or Britain or Australia). Then the people built a mud brick tower (except mud bricks do not have the compression strength to be used to built something tall). And the all-powerful God was somehow threatened by this? But now the rabbi seeks to explain this nonsense with more nonsense which he has invented without even referencing the Bible? I think all of it is a fairy story but if people wish to believe it, that is their right. But what gives this rabbi the authority to invent his own version? They didn't believe the flood was God's work. They wanted to ensure the heavens didn't fall down? Or they wanted to go to the moon. WHAT?!

[@vincentsimon4037]

Yahweh was not God. Never was a God. No more than an egotistical but very advanced being from the heavens. Nor "heaven", but from the stars!! Understand this FACT!!

This has got to be the worst explanation of Babyl... worst... I'm disappointed with HIS view.. there is more to it than that folks. Lot of talk, very VERY little substance

[@clay5418]

Yet another completely incorrect take on biblical events and history. Pretty amazing. If he is going to call himself a Rabbi, he should teach G'd's Word, and not his own....

[@tjrizzo1619]

It says God changed their languages. It doesn’t say God changed their race. So how are we white black Chinese Indian Spanish and so on? Myself and a few friends took DNA tests. There’s nothing that matches us to one another. I’m mostly Italian with a little African. One of my friends is Greek and Scottish. Shouldn’t we have some DNA that matches if we all originate from the same place?

[@z-generation3058]

please my dear throughout the series of your videos I came across is worldly being interpreted. This results in misleading God's children.

[@MJAYJR]

I don’t know about this explanation, all I know is, whatever there were doing worries God to a point where he has to come down and divided them, and later on he want them to unify, it’s just absurd.

[@Daygard1]

Is there any real proof any of this even really happened? Kinda like Noah's ark? Like most of the stories in the Bible. No real proof, god just decided to keep all proof from us. Lol. We need to just go on faith and don't forget to donate, :)7

[@Lmg897]

There sin was against earth not against heaven? This is false! There is no such thing as sin against earth. All sin is against God, that’s why it’s sin. Furthermore, the Bible says, “every imagination d of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.” And it says, “the earth was filled with violence, and all flesh had corrupted his way upon the earth.”

[@i8nm3gp]

The idols having equivalents across different people around the world indicates they speaking the same language. Indigenous americans also had sacrificial idols.

[@mathgod]

Hardly balanced, definitely delightful.

[@defenestratefalsehoods]

The story still make no sense. It would take thousands of people to even start the tower of babel. Where did all the people come from 100 years after Noah's flood? You started with 4 women and 100 years later there is thousands of people to build a huge tower.

[@jonathanandtrishavlogs6874]

You say their sin was against earth but they were ok with YHWH? No, David said "Against you and only you have I said, oh YHWH". "Sinning against the earth" is sinning against the Most High, since He created earth and all that is therin.

[@bert7651]

Nah. Its just because Noah pleased God and pleaded for his descendants never to be destroyed. Dispersion is too good for Babylon, God was just being gracious and merciful.

[@josephfisher6595]

Or is the story a metaphor for trying to censor mankind to maintain a narrative. Gods gift of discretion is a requirement for freedom of thought to exist. Trying to force someone to believe the works of men (same language) when they contravene God’s laws is a state of sin aka a Tower of Babel.

[@olkensavril5703]

Maybe the devil flood the earth and destroyed the towel of babel for not wanting us to be like our Father's. If our Father's created us in His likeness and His image i don't see 😤 anything wrong of trying to be like Him, now If you think you better than him that too much pride and if you also go against His rules that's rebellion.

[@Ratselmeister]

Is it possible that the tower of babylon actually refers to the pyramids the pyramids the jews saw in the egypt exile? The where be build by a nation, who led by people, the pharoes who literally thaught they are gods, the were build to reach the stars, and their culture was totally smashed and the dynasty in the time of the exile egypt was only shadows of their selves and their former knowlage.

[@miguelrosado7649]

Read the Tower of Babel story, like many other stories in the Bible, it makes clear the ignorance of the people that wrote them. The god they are taking about is so stupid that does not understand that would be impossible for them to build such a tower. I wonder how we have people who read those stories and believe them.

[@LeonidSaykin]

Is that because of jealousy? Some people were jealous of the ancient Babylonian tower that had been built by the people who could speak multiple languages.
