Leibig card depicting a bible scene: The tower of Babel

Leibig card depicting a bible scene: The tower of Babel. The Tower of Babel is meant to explain why the world's peoples speak different languages. According to the story, a united humanity in the generations following the Great Flood, speaking a single language and migrating eastward, comes to the land of Shinar to build a city and a tower tall enough to reach heaven. God, observing their city and tower, confounds their speech so that they can no longer understand each other, and scatters them around the world..
