The distinction between the sons of God and the sons of men now appeared again, when men began to multiply. We have in this chapter,
( 1,) The dispersion of the sons of men at Babel, Genesis 11:1-9, where we have, 1, Their presumptuous design, to build a city and a tower, Genesis 11:1-4; Genesis 11:2, The righteous judgment of God upon them in disappointing their design, by confounding their language, and so scattering them, Genesis 11:5-9.
(2,) The pedigree of the sons of God down to Abraham, 10-26, with a general account of his family, and removal out of his native country, Genesis 11:27-32.
