Great Harlot Revealed
- (Revelation 17:1-3) – “And one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls came, and spoke with me, Hither, I will point out to you the judgment of the great harlot, who sits upon many waters, with whom the kings of the earth committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth were made drunk with the wine of her fornication. And he carried me away into the wilderness in the spirit. And I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.”
- (Jeremiah 51:7-13) – “Babylon has been A GOLDEN CUP in Yahweh's HAND, that made all the earth drunk. THE NATIONS HAVE DRUNK OF HER WINE; therefore, the nations are mad. Babylon is suddenly fallen and destroyed: wail for her; take balm for her pain, if so be she may be healed… Yahweh has stirred up the spirit of the kings of the Medes; because his purpose is against Babylon, to destroy it: for it is the vengeance of Yahweh… O thou that DWELLEST UPON MANY WATERS, abundant in treasures, thine end is come, and the measure of thy covetousness.”
- (Revelation 17:3-6) – “And the woman was arrayed with purple and scarlet, and decked with gold and precious stone and pearls, having a cup of gold in her hand, full of abominations and the impurities of her fornication; and upon her forehead a name is written, a mystery, Babylon the Great, the mother of the harlots and of the abominations of the earth. And I saw the woman drunk with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the witnesses of Jesus. And I was astonished when I beheld her, with great astonishment.”
The “bride of the Lamb” was also identified as the “city” of New Jerusalem, which was made of pure gold with walls adorned with “precious stones,” and no “unclean or abominable thing” could enter it. In contrast, “Babylon” was “full of abominations and the unclean things of her fornication.”
“Mystery, Babylon the Great, the mother of harlots and of the abominations of the earth.” In the Greek sentence, “mystery” is set in apposition to “name.” It is not a part of the “name” inscribed on her forehead. The clause more accurately reads, “a name, a mystery, Babylon the Great.” The Greek term for “mystery” refers to something that is hidden or secret. The angel now unveils the “mystery.”
“On her forehead, a name was written.” The “harlot” is contrasted here with the “saints,” those who have the “name of his Father written on their foreheads.” They are the “servants of God” and follow Jesus. But the “Harlot” is the servant and ally of the “Dragon,” and that means on some level she also is a counterfeit to the church, just as “Jezebel” was active in seducing the congregation in Thyatira.
“Babylon the Great” is another link to the seventh “bowl of wrath,” where she was also called Babylon the Great.” Elsewhere, she is called the “Great City” - (Revelation 11:8, 14:8).
“Having a cup of gold full of abominations and the impurities of her fornication.” “Fornication” is used metaphorically for the sins of idolatry and compromise. Her “golden cup” full of “abominations” connects her to the “Dragon” who uses idolatry to deceive the nations - (Revelation 2:21, 9:21).
She is the “great city” that is responsible for the “blood of martyrs” (martur). Likewise, in the vision of the “two witnesses” (martur), the “great city” was responsible for their deaths, and before that, for the death of Jesus - (“Where their Lord was crucified”).
“The blood of saints.” Previously, the “beast from the sea” was authorized to wage war against the “saints,” who were identified as “they that keep the commandments of God and have the faith of Jesus.” And the first four bowls of wrath were poured out on the men who had the “mark of the beast” because “they had shed the blood of saints and prophets” - (Revelation 13:7-10, 14:12, 16:6).
Thus, the “Great Harlot” is linked inextricably to the violent deaths of the “saints” on account of their testimony for Jesus. That she is “drunk” with their blood indicates the great pleasure she takes in their deaths, going all the way back to the death of the first “faithful witness,” Jesus Christ.
“I was astonished with great astonishment.” Here, there is a wordplay between the verb “astonished” (thaumazo) and the noun “astonishment” (thauma). The same verb was used earlier when “the whole earth wondered after the beast from the sea” - (Revelation 13:3, 17:8).
John found her appearance “astonishing.” Her outward beauty and grandeur were so impressive that he was taken aback. Outwardly, at least, the “Great Harlot” was not repulsive, but attractive, even momentarily to John. There are reasons why she was so successful at deceiving humanity in general, and more ominously, some of the “saints.”
