---It was from the 8 in the Ark that generations after the Flood originated.

---There were probably slight genetic fluctuations for the purpose of creating a separation between humans and humans.

---It was not the plan that all of them should be unified or stayed unified.

---Dispersion and migrating was the purpose of the Divine.

---But, post-Flood humans wished to stay together.

---As long as sin is around, it is not good to stick at one place.

---There was a kerugmatic reason also. They are to spread the Messages of God and Plan of God for the future of this earth.

---It was not God's plan that they live forever on this earth.

---The length of their lifespan drastically declined after the Flood.

---It was still hundreds of years for some, but deterioration took place.

---The Truth about God was the main purpose to keep them going.

---It appears that they moved from the Mountains of Ararat in Turkey through the plains of Sumer to the Caucus regions on higher grounds.

---Then they moved back again to the plains of Sumer and Akkad between the Tigirs and Euphrates and elsewhere and was concerned about another possible coming Flood 2?

---Thus their goal was to prepare for that hypothetical Flood by building a Tower.

---Against God's expressed communication to them.

---The Bible does not say, but in all likelihood Noah and truth followers told them it is not necessary to build a Tower, but they did not want to listen.

---Dispersing humanity was thus a combination of language and slight genetic variants in the chromosomes.

---Pluralism and dispersion goes together. Similarity and sticking together does also.

--There are many communications of God through the truthful to all peoples of those days that is not recorded by Moses in his excerpts from Noah's records. Scanty references remain.

---Our reconstruction of the history of those days are thus based on "scanty data".

---Evolution was not part of the early thoughts of humanity. It is a late invention. 

Dr. Doukhan in these lessons brings out the "now" of God in small nuances packed into the biblical "suitcase" specially for all, including us. For every generation.
