Revelation 17:1-2 tells us, “Then one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls came and talked with me, saying to me, ‘Come, I will show you the judgment of the great harlot who sits on 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.’
Revelation 17:5 goes on to say,
“And on her forehead a name was written: MYSTERY, BABYLON THE
GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.”
Who is this “whore of Babylon” and what is “mystery Babylon”?
Revelation 17:3 gives this description:
“Then the angel carried me away in the Spirit into a desert. There
I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast that was covered with
blasphemous names and had seven heads and ten horns.”
The beast mentioned in this verse is the same beast as in Revelation chapter 13:1, “And I saw a beast coming out of the sea. He had ten horns and seven heads, with ten crowns on his horns, and on each head a blasphemous name.”
The beast in Revelation chapter 13 is understood to refer to the
Antichrist, the man of lawlessness (2 Thessalonians 2:3-4; Daniel 9:27). So, the whore of Babylon, whoever it
is, is closely affiliated with the end-times Antichrist.
