Stay close to the prophet as the Lord is beginning to hasten His work.
After Noah came to the new world, God reaffirmed His commandments. Note that murder is punishable by death. Nimrod abandoned the priesthood culture and formed his own community called Babel. He convinced his followers to begin idolatry, astrology and fertility worship. To defy God, or avoid the punishments of God, he commenced the building of the tower of Babel.
After the confusion of tongues, the land divided and people began to spread across the world. The seed of Ham, or Hamites, settled in Egypt; the seed of Shem, or shemites, settled in the middle East and Mesopotamia with their capital in Salem (Jerusalem); the seed of Japeth settled north and east of the Mediterranean Sea clear to the areas of India and China.
Brother Skousen promises to get caught up to Abraham and Isaac in the next lecture.
