In episode 55, Sam Francart continues the study in the book of Revelation, with a focus on Revelation 18:1-24. Last episode we studied chapter 17, which described Babylon. This chapter describes the destruction - how it occurred and how it affected the people. First, in verses 1-8, an angel proclaimed judgment on Babylon. Then, in verses 9-10, the rulers of the world lament the destruction of the city, then in verses 11-16 the merchants lament and finally, in verses 18-20 the ship owners lament. The chapter ends with praise, and we’ll dig into why that is in this episode!
