lesson 4 

Hello! Its Rosalia again!  Again, NOBODY tried to guess the next story!  But anyway, this lesson is about the Tower of Babel.  This is the story after Noah and the flood.   

At this time, everyone spoke the same language, and every one on the whole earth understood each other. And they settled in a place called Shinar,  (Pronounced SHI-naar.  Click HERE to listen to the pronunciation) even though GOD told them to spread out on the earth.  They made bricks, and burned them throughly.  They said, "let us build for ourselves a city, and a tower that reaches the heavens."  They wanted a name, and they wanted to be famous around the world.  The LORD came to see the tower which they had built.  The LORD was angry with them because they were being prideful, so He confused their languages so that they could not understand each other, and they had to spread out on the earth.   


I think our 'take-away' from this lesson is to not be prideful.  Can you get a different 'take-away' from this lesson?  If you can, thats great!  Also, if you can think of one, type it in on the question section.  If I pick YOUR 'take-away', then YOUR name will be in the answers page!   See you next Saturday!   Rosalia. 



Read it in Genesis chapter 11!
