    Deuteronomy 32:8 -9 When the High God gave the nations their stake,
    gave them their place on Earth,
    He put each of the peoples within boundaries
    under the care of divine guardians.
    But God himself took charge of his people,
    took Jacob on as his personal concern.
    The Message Bible

    The Book of Jasher Chapter 9

    32 And God said to the seventy angels who stood foremost before him, to those who were near to him, saying, Come let us descend and confuse their tongues, that one man shall not understand the language of his neighbor, and they did so unto them.

    33 And from that day following, they forgot each man his neighbor's tongue, and they could not understand to speak in one tongue, and when the builder took from the hands of his neighbor lime or stone which he did not order, the builder would cast it away and throw it upon his neighbor, that he would die.

    So much food for thought ...

    There is a Talmudic tradition that, based on Genesis chapter ten, seventy nations sprang from Noahm hence tbe seventy angels.

    What is the book of Jasher? I've never heard of it. It sounds like it must parallel the Bible?

    http://www.sacred-texts.com/chr/apo/jasher/index.htm

    It parallels and illuminates the first 5 books of the Bible.

    Oops!

    I should have placed a comma after Noah in the preceding post.

    That's what I get for hurrying and worrying.
