Since this burden came during the reign of King Ahaz (Ch 14,) long before the fall of Babylon, I am having difficulty following your reasoning.
For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light: the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, and the moon shall not cause her light to shine . . . Therefore I will shake the heavens, and the earth shall remove out of her place, in the wrath of the Lord of hosts, and in the day of his fierce anger." (Isa 13:10,13 KJV)
Well, are you claiming a literal interpretation then?? Because that will go worse for you.
I am simply pointing out that if the txt above is not literal, then it must be allegorical. If it is to be taken as allegory, then what it is necessarily speaking of IS the Babylonian Mystery Religion, which was based upon the sun, the moon, and a division of the heavens into gods, as signified by constellations (our zodiac today).
