The old distinction between the sons of God and the sons of men (professors and profane) survived the flood, and now appeared again, when men began to multiply: according to this distinction we have, in this chapter,
I. The dispersion of the sons of men at Babel (v. 1-9), where we have,
1. Their presumptuous provoking design, which was to build a city and a tower (v. 1-4).
2. The righteous judgment of God upon them in disappointing their design, by confounding their language, and so scattering them (v. 5-9).
II. The pedigree of the sons of God down to Abraham (v. 10-26), with a general account of his family, and removal out of his native country (v. 27, etc.).
