YouTube Description
as posted by the channelWe review the historicity of the Tower of Babel and how the story is written into the Book of Mormon and directly leads to the stones that Joseph Smith claims were buried with the gold plates.
The video discusses the Tower of Babel story in Genesis, its problems, and its impact on the Book of Mormon. Mike points out issues with the numbers in the story, its similarities to earlier myths, and argues that it was likely a polemic against ziggurat worship. The speaker then discusses the Book of Mormon's stance on the Tower of Babel being a literal historical event and its consequences for the faith if it is not. The speaker also discusses apologetic responses from the Mormon Church and the problems that arise without a literal interpretation of the story.
