Jehovah confronts problems in Babel

CHAPTER 8

Now that it was plainly seen that Jehovah does act against his enemies, there was a marked increase in the level of worship of him, especially now that there was no physical demonic presence on earth any more, just a visible one.
After many hundreds of years had passed, the population again expanded, consequentially vast crowds of people started to congregate together in the Babel area, creating an early form of urban life.
They even built a large tower, to inspire the city dwellers to stay within its view and not be dispersed, to benefit from the cities amenities and protection.
The sun baked mud bricks provided the natural resource for this building frenzy which took place, as hut led onto hut, street onto street, till there was a general bustle about the place.
People were drawn to trade there, from the out lying regions because of its demands for produce and so even more folk were influenced to reside there permanently.
All the population spoke the same language, so there wasnt to many constraints to prevent the small town from becoming the first megopolis.
This turn of events brought on a show of the Most Highs displeasure at one of situation update meetings.
"This grouping together of the population into an urban mass, doesnt look good, Gabriel. I know were this can lead to.
I was only saying to Michael, the other day, that left to their own devices, man in a few centuries could consolidate their developing knowledge, towards the creation of a market led industrial state, with the poential spinoff of applied technology being able to build extraordinary machines, harmful to the environment, even possibly breaking into the secrets of atomic structures with its fearful ramifications".
"And what did Michael say, sir seeing that Im afraid I dont have a clue what you mean".
"It means, Gabriel that, somehow Im going to have to step in andprevent them from urbanising too early. Any ideas, Gabriel, how I can acheive that"?
"Im not sure sir, that I can think of any solution that wouldnt lead them to just resite the city somewhere else, such as cutting off their present water supply".
"Michael, what do you think. I need some input here.
Are you feeling alright Michael. You seem distracted withdrawn. Can we help"? Jehovah quized
"Its not really a problem, father, Michael said. Im just a bit confused. Ive just bumped into the human Enoch, up here, wandering around outside in the Temple complex".
"Oh that. Its alright Michael. I had him brought up here, and Noah too. Ive given them spiritual bodies, and I intend to bring even more up here, another 22 of them in fact.
Good loyal solid humans, who arent afraid to speak the truth, to advise us from the human perpective, as a council of 24 elders.
And it wont do any harm to our cause, to see twentyfour humans rewarded and up here.
They will be useful to you, Michael, especially when they have been identified down there,before they reeive their heavenly reward. You can use them to promote and inform the humans of your eventual mission. Anyhow we can talk of them later. For now though how are we to stop or slow down this concentration of humans in towns and cities".
