“Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she has made all
nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.”

“Prophetically,
‘Babylon’ sometimes refers to a literal city, sometimes to a religious system,
sometimes to a political system, all stemming from the evil character of
historic Babylon.” (Walvoord)
Isaiah 21:9 And look, here comes a chariot of men with a
pair of horsemen!” Then he answered and
said, ‘Babylon is fallen, is fallen! And
all the carved images of her gods He has broken to the ground.”
Jeremiah 51:7 Babylon was a golden cup in the LORD’S hand,
that made all the earth drunk. The
nations drank her wine; therefore the nations are deranged.
