“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.”
'Fallen! Fallen is Babylon the Great! She has become a dwelling for demons and a haunt for every impure spirit, a haunt for every unclean bird and every unclean animal' - the cry echoes Isaiah 21:9 and Jeremiah 51. Babylon's fall is absolute; what was a center of human power becomes a refuge for demons and all that is spiritually unclean.
