  • Babel (with 1st letter capitalized) is a city in Shina where the building of a tower is held in Genesis to have been halted by the confusion of tongues. Bible scholars think the Tower of Babel refers to a ziggurat, the ancient pagan temple tower of the Babylonians. Babylon was located on the Euphrates River about 30 miles (49 km) from the modern city of Baghdad in Iraq. The Babylonians bragged that their tower reached up to the heavens.
  • Babel (with first letter not capitalized) means a confusion of sounds or voices
