The Bible explains the origin of the thousands of languages spoken today. You see, after the flood, Noah’s descendants refused to spread around the world.

So God confused their language, so they were forced to fill the earth.

But how many languages did God create? Well, if we look at the genealogies in Genesis, it appears God created less than one hundred new languages.

Language analysts say all the thousands of languages today came from less than one hundred original languages. Over time, these language families have changed into new languages that still bear similarity to one another.

Like always, science confirms God’s Word . . . from the very beginning.
