Genesis 11:4: 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." In the days of Noah, a just man who walked with God, he then begat three sons, Shem, Ham, and Ja’-pheth. The Lord then said unto Noah, “The end of all flesh is come before me, for the earth is filled with violence through them; and behold, I will destroy them with the earth. (Gen 6:9-10,13) Make thee an ark of go’-pher wood, and I will establish my covenant, and thou shalt come into the ark, thou and thy sons, and thy wife and the sons' wives with thee." (Gen 6:14,18) Noah’s son Ham and his son Cush, and his wife’s, who were brought with them, who then bore children, begat Nimrod, who began to be a mighty one on the earth. The beginning of their kingdom was Babel, E’-rech, Ac’-cad and Cal’-neh, in the land of Shi’-nar. (Gen 10:6,8,10) In the land of Shi’-nar, they found a plain in the land and said, “Let us build us a city and a tower (Pyramid) whose top may reach unto heaven, lest we be scattered on the face of the whole earth.” (Gen 11:2-4) This building of the tower, whose top may reach to heaven, which is similar to a pyramid, having footsteps to climb, was for the sons of God’s children who were born and wanted to go back to heaven. The Lord came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men built, knowing nothing would be restrained from them, what they imagined doing. The Lord confounded their language and scattered them upon the face of the earth. (Gen 11:5-8/John 11:52) As they were scattered, their language was confounded, Ham’s son Miz’-ra-im, in Hebrew, Egypt, where then in this land of Egypt. (Gen 10:6/11:7/Psa 78:51/105:23) The generation of Miz’-ra-im, who then had Pharaoh who ruled over Egypt, where the children of A’-nak, giants who had towers which were and are, the pyramids where the constructions were done in this land. (Gen 12:15/Num 13:22) Noah’s son Japheth and his son Madai, who were scattered, migrated to a land that was named after him, that is, the Medes, today, Media, which is in Persia. These mighty hunters were the ones who built the Ancient Structures, bearing the spirit of the fallen angels of God who took the daughters of man to ascend back to heaven. (1 Chro 1:5/Dan 5:28) Noah’s son Japheth and his son Madai (Gen 10:1-2), who were scattered to the land that was named after him, the Medes, today, Media, which is in Persia. These are the tribes who were scattered on the face of the whole earth, who built towers, having idols of their forefathers, worshiping them. Noah’s son Japheth and his son, Ma’-gog, who went up to the north, was and are today the chief prince of Gog, the land of Ma’-gog, the prince of Rosh, that is, Russia today. (Gen 10:2/Eze 38:2-3) As the scattered tribes ruled over nations, Media, which is in Persia, A-has-u-e’-rus reigned from India even unto E-thi-o-pia. (Est 1:1-3/Ezr 4:5-6) Isaiah 14:12-13: How art thou fallen from heaven, O Li’-ci-fer, son of the morning! How art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! For thou hast said in thine heart, "I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north."
