“Therefore her plagues will come in
one day – death and mourning and famine.
And she will be utterly burned with fire, for strong is the Lord God who
judges her.
- · The destruction of commercial Babylon will come suddenly, and with completeness (utterly burned with fire). (DG)
- · When destruction comes on a people suddenly, the surprise is a great aggravation of their misery (MH)
Ezekiel 28:2….Because
your heart is lifted up, and you say, ‘I am a god, I sit in the seat of
gods. In the midst of the seas,” Yet you are a man, and not a god, though you
set your heart as the heart of a god.
Zephaniah 2:15 This is the rejoicing city that dwelt
securely that said in her heart, ‘I am it, and there is none besides me.” How has she become a desolation, a place for
beasts to lie down! Everyone who passes
by her shall hiss and shake his fist.
