Genesis 10:25

וּ לְ עֵבֶר יֻלַּד שְׁנֵי בָנִים שֵׁם הָ אֶחָד פֶּלֶג כִּי בְ יָמָיו נִפְלְגָה הָ אָרֶץ וְ שֵׁם אָחִיו יָקְטָן
And to Beyond have two builders been born; the name of the One is Division for in his days the Earth has been divided,412 and his brother’s name is Small.413
412

in his days has the Earth been divided. Another cryptic allusion to Jesus, and more so the consummation of everything. Divided (Strong’s #6385) is from palag meaning to split up.

Swallow up, Master, divide [palag] their tongues, for I have seen violence and dispute in the City. Psalm 55:9 literal

a whole queen having been divided upon herself is made desolate, and a house is falling upon a house.” Luke 11:17 literal

See the participle also in Acts 14:4-5, and “those dividing tongues” Acts 2:3.
