Was the Tower of Babel constructed in the Plain of Shinar?
A:The story of the Tower of Babel was added to Genesis quite late in Jewish history, during the Babylonian Exile. The exiled Jews, who had never before seen a great cosmopolitan city like Babylon, were in awe of the great ziggurut, a pyramid-like tower, and at the same time surprised to meet people who spoke so many different languages. They associated the tower, which seemed to reach the heavens, and the many strange languages, and so developed the story of the Tower of Babel. If we accept the mythology of the Tower of Babel, we can place it in the Plain of Shinar, but the real tower was in the city of Babylon.
How old was Abraham when the Tower of Babel was completed?
That is difficult to estimate, but here are some considerations... The tower of Babel was built somewhere between 2247 BC and 952 BC. [1] Abraham was born and died between: approx 2000 B.C. and 1500 B.C. [2] At age 175, Abraham dies and is buried in Macpelah [2] so... to ballpark it... If the Tower of Babel was finished being built in 1600 BC and If Abraham was born in 1750 BC and died in 1575 BC then... Abraham would have been 150 years old when the Tower of Babel was finished.
