Revelation 18:2




And he cried mightily with a loud voice, saying, “Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and has become a dwelling place of demons, a prison for every foul spirit, and a cage for every unclean and hated bird!


  • ·        This angel publishes the fall of Babylon, as a thing already come to pass (MH)

  • ·        He announces that Babylon is fallen, fallen; the phrase is “repeated like a solemn dirge of the damned.” (Robertson)

Isaiah 13:19  And Babylon, the glory of kingdoms, the beauty of the Chaldeans’ pride, will be as when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah.

Jeremiah 50:39  Therefore the wild desert beasts shall dwell there with the jackals, and the ostriches shall dwell in it.  It shall be inhabited no more forever; nor shall it be dwelt in from generation to generation.
