yeah except the actual intention and or even divine intent of the text is kind of irrelevant. The actual translation and depiction of it has been popularized as “god was scared of strong people together” and that’s what people now believe the story is about: The hubris of those who think they can stand up to God is bad and leads to punishment, even if that hubris is sourced from cooperation
Are you saying that, because the popular conception and depictions of babel are the later tower-focused version etc, there's no point discussing the original context in the comm created for such discussion about the religion and its development?
Nah you’re right that it’s worth talking about and your points are both good and insightful, I’m just saying that the original post also has value as a subversion of the popular narrative
