Biblical History from Outside the Bible

Ancient Sources Outside the Bible

Here's ancient literature from outside the bible that comfirm the biblical account.

"When all men were of one language, some of them built a high tower, as if they would thereby ascend up to heaven; but the gods sent storms of wind and overthrew the tower, and gave everyone his peculiar language; and for this reason it was that the city was called Babylon....After this they were dispersed abroad, on account of their languages, and went out by colonies everywhere; and each colony took possession of that land which they lighted upon, and unto which God led them; so that the whole continent was filled with them, both the inland and maritime countries. There were some also who passed over the sea in ships, and inhabited the islands; and some of these nations do still retain the names which were given to them by their first founders; but some also have lost them"

- The Sybil (Josephus. Antiq. i. 5.)

2 Peter 3:5-6

"For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water: Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished..."

Ignorance to the evidence of a worldwide flood and to the Biblical account is the dumbest thing anyone can do.
