Babel and Pentacost -- The Great Reversal

It has been often remarked by commentators on the Bible that the miracle on the Day of Pentacost (Acts 2), when people of all nations could understand the Apostles in their own language, is a sort of reversal of the  Tower of Babel story related in Genesis 11.  The assemblage below is an attempt to picture this contrast. The Genesis incident appears in the inside of the box and the events in Acts are shown inside the door.
