Quote You don't call Babylon "Babel", because those two are the exact same word in Hebrew. Why don't you do this "correctly"? Because i distiguish Babel as 2240-2009 BC but Babylon as 1894-1594 BC.

The Bible does say Babel in Genesis and yet does say babylon destroyed king Zedekiah's Jerusalem.
That is a difference and to say the Bible isnt saying this difference is merely trying to carry a topic on by refuting all things said. I now see it. You will not get me frustrated when i can lock the topic.
what book what chapter and what verse of my defective translations says the city was confused and so called it was called babylon.
Babylon did not exist before 1894 BC.Read common literature.... it is called 1st dynasty.So it means first, not last, not middle,not preDynasty, not zero dynasty, not dynasty zero, not one-half dynasty, or one-quarter dynasty almost 1st.We need to reiterate within mere seconds of your starting a chronological list of kings who start rule at 1117 BC. Genesis ends with Joseph dying in 1767 BC as an exact 300 years before Israel declares borders in 1467 BC. This is still when the city is called Babylon from 1894-1594 BC where it falls the year Moses is born.Now because the name Babylon is born with its kingship on Nov 2 of 1894 BC, it is very simple to ask again (and again) where is your scripture that says the word Babylon in Genesis. My Bible says Babel (2240-1895 BC).And they called the city Babel because it was the start of Confusion. I bet you (anyone) can find that verse in Genesis now that I gave the clues. Happy hunting.
coolso its Babylon you claim is the word not usedit is all Babelit says Nebuchadnezzar of Babelgot it
