Language began with God’s own voice. In this episode, Scott Mitchell welcomes Jeff Dodson back to the Bible Mysteries studio to discuss how the very first words spoken by the Creator still shape our understanding of Scripture today.

Drawing from Richard Lederer’s book The Miracle of Language and years of Hebrew study, Jeff explains why Hebrew is likely the original language of creation and how it was later confounded at Babel. He and Scott highlight why grasping Hebrew terms—beyond English translations—helps believers rightly divide the Word of truth and appreciate the full depth of God’s message.

Key Scriptures (KJV)

• John 1:1 – In the beginning was the Word…
• 2 Timothy 2:15 – Study to shew thyself approved unto God…
• Hebrews 11:6 – He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

• How God’s spoken Word brought creation into being
• Why Hebrew may preserve echoes of that original speech
• How translation and transliteration affect Bible understanding
• The importance of diligent study to recover the richness of Scripture

What if the first city ever built was not for progress, but for rebellion? In this episode of Bible Mysteries Podcast, Scott Mitchell and John Potts discuss the spiritual roots of urban centers and how their influence has shaped human history from Cain to Mystery Babylon.

The Bible tells us that Cain, after murdering Abel, built the first city and named it after his son (Genesis 4:16–17). This act was more than survival—it was a deliberate move to establish a legacy outside of God’s presence. From that point forward, cities often became hubs of corruption, false religion, and rebellion against the Creator.

Scott examines how ancient cities like Babel (Genesis 11:1–9) and Sodom (Genesis 13:12–13; 18:20–22) illustrate the concentration of wickedness, and how these examples point toward the prophetic Mystery Babylon of Revelation (Revelation 17:3–6, 18).

Key Scriptures

• Genesis 4:16–17 – Cain builds the first city after slaying Abel.
• 1 John 3:12 – Cain identified as “of that wicked one.”
• Jude 1:11 – The warning of going in “the way of Cain.”
• Genesis 11:1–9 – The rebellion of Babel and the scattering of nations.
• Genesis 13:12–13; 18:20–22 – The wickedness of Sodom.
• 2 Peter 2:6–8; Jude 1:6–7 – God’s judgment on Sodom and Gomorrah.
• Hebrews 11:8–10 – Abraham seeking the city built by God.
• Revelation 17:3–6, 18; Revelation 21:9–12 – Mystery Babylon contrasted with the New Jerusalem.

• Cain’s Rebellion Through City-Building: The origin of urban centers as the first organized defiance against God.
• The Lineages of Cain and Seth: How Satan counterfeits true wisdom with false advancements.
• Ancient Cities as Spiritual Strongholds: Babel, Sodom, and others as concentrations of wickedness.
• Modern Cities as Echoes of Babylon: Washington, D.C., New York, London, and beyond as heirs of spiritual corruption.
• The Heavenly City: Abraham’s faith pointed not to man’s cities, but to the eternal New Jerusalem built by God.
