But, Revelation itself teaches that Babylon is the great city (Revelation 18:10) upon whom wrath was to come. The Great City Babylon is clearly identified as Jerusalem (Revelation 11:8)! Further, purple and scarlet are the colors of the ritual dress of the high priest (Exodus 28:5-6; 39:1-2). So, the evidence supports the view that Revelation is about Gods judgment on Old Covenant Israel.
You lost me there. Jerusalem definitely is not Babylon, never was, and never will be. Lambasting Lindsey for his errors, this author suffers the same affliction.
Babylon means confusion.
Our world is very confused.
Revelation ch. 11 doesn’t mention Jerusalem at all. Yet it’s “clearly identified as Jerusalem” by 11:8?
Semaj, Revelation 18:10 identifies Babylon as “the great city.” The first time “the great city” is mentioned in Revelation is 11:8, where she is clearly identified as “the city where the Lord was slain.” Pretty simple, actually.
