Talk:Tower of Babel

Ba'al or Bel is Babylonian for Lord, meaning, in this case, Dingir Marduk. There is no Sumerian God namend Bel. The interpretation Bab elum as Gate of God is most probably a Neo-Babylonian learned speculation. --Yak 15:15, Apr 10, 2004 (UTC)
Joseph?
deleted this:
- Others draw upon the Hamiltonian source sighting its reference to 'yosef', that is 'Joseph' in English.
sighting should probably read citing, but I still don't get it (what's "the Hamiltonian source"?) dab 07:53, 15 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Should this be merged with Babel?
