Babylon in Revelation
by RS  admin@creationpie.org : 1024 x 640
1. Babylon in Revelation
The word "Babylon" is used in six verses in Revelation.

Revelation describes an end-time scenario about "Babylon" where a world economic leader, and perhaps the world economy, is effectively destroyed in within an hour. Could that actually happen?

No one is quite sure in this context what the name Babylon represents. Some verse parts appear to fit today. Others do not.
2. City
What great city would be a candidate for a modern day Babylon?

In Revelation, this great city, whatever it represents, comes to a quick and violent end.
3. Strongs - Babylon
4. Revelation 14:8 Requirements of Babylon
Revelation 14:8 And there followed another angel, saying, Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication. [kjv]
και αλλος δευτερος αγγελος ηκολουθησεν λεγων επεσεν επεσεν βαβυλων  η πολις   η μεγαλη  οτι   η εκ του οινου του θυμου της πορνειας αυτης πεποτικεν παντα τα εθνη [gnt]

Here are some requirements for Babylon.
5. Revelation 14:8
   Revelation 14:8 
 All 
KJV: And there followed another angel, saying, Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.
Greek: και αλλος δευτερος αγγελος ηκολουθησεν λεγων επεσεν επεσεν βαβυλων η πολις η μεγαλη οτι η εκ του οινου του θυμου της πορνειας αυτης πεποτικεν παντα τα εθνη
6. Strongs - wrath
7. Strongs - fornication
8. Put it together
TenPin 0
The great "city" of the "many" is of "three" "parts": These three parts appear to include everyone.

9. Revelation 16:19 Three parts
Revelation 16:19 And the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell: and great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath. [kjv]
και εγενετο η πολις η μεγαλη εις τρια μερη και αι πολεις των εθνων  επεσον  επεσαν και βαβυλων η μεγαλη εμνησθη ενωπιον του θεου δουναι αυτη το ποτηριον του οινου του θυμου της οργης αυτου [gnt]

10. Mystery
The "mystery" is that of "Babylon". The next verse appears to indicate more clearly that the word "Babylon" is a code word for some worldly organization - city, people, nation, etc.
11. Revelation 17:5
   Revelation 17:5 
 All 
KJV: And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.
Greek: και επι το μετωπον αυτης ονομα γεγραμμενον μυστηριον βαβυλων η μεγαλη η μητηρ των πορνων και των βδελυγματων της γης
12. Revelation 18:1-24 Cagey birds and the end of Babylon
Revelation 18:2 And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird. [kjv]
και εκραξεν εν  ισχυι   ισχυρα φωνη  μεγαλη   λεγων επεσεν επεσεν βαβυλων η μεγαλη και εγενετο κατοικητηριον  δαιμονων   δαιμονιων και φυλακη παντος πνευματος ακαθαρτου και φυλακη παντος ορνεου ακαθαρτου και μεμισημενου [gnt]

Cage Sphere
In Revelation 18, "Babylon" the "great" is described as a "hold" or ""cage" or "watch" or "prison" of every "unclean" "spirit" and of every "unclean" and "hateful" type of "bird".
In Matthew 7, the house built on sand will be "cut off" will have a "great" "fall" (same exact Greek words).
