In 1971, Led Zeppelin released a song titled Stairway to Heaven possibly getting the name from the ladder Jacob saw leading to heaven in Genesis 28:12. However, the original stairway to heaven occurs in Genesis 11:1-9 and is widely known as the Tower of Babel.
According to Genesis, the people of the ancient times decided to ignore God’s command to “fill the earth and subdue it” but instead they all gathered in the land of Shinar, also known as Mesopotamia. They decided to make a tower to heaven to make a name for themselves and God disagreed.
