About this listen

What happens when the entire world unites... for the wrong purpose? In this episode, Rabbi Bentzi Epstein takes you on a tour of the Tower of Babel and humanity's coordinated attempt to wage war against G-d Himself.


Learn the fascinating details, such as how they planned to escape gravity and "float up" to fight the Almighty. Rabbi Epstein reveals the deeper meaning behind Lashon HaKodesh (the Holy Tongue) and how G-d’s response of creating multiple languages was the birth of tribalism, nationalism, and identity politics that still divide us 3,789 years later.


You'll also discover that Abraham was 48 years old during these events, living through this global uprising before his own revolutionary mission would begin to heal what Babel broke. This episode connects ancient wisdom to modern headlines, showing how the Tower of Babel's lesson about unity versus rebellion echoes through every generation—including our own.
