The Fall of Babylon the Great (Revelation 18:1).

The connections between Revelation 18 and Jeremiah 50, 51 stress that the essential nature of the prostitute parallels Babylon. Compare Jeremiah 51:25 with Revelation 18:8; Jeremiah 50:8; Jeremiah 51:6; Jeremiah 51:45 with Revelation 18:4; Jeremiah 51:9 with Revelation 18:5; Jeremiah 17:18; Jeremiah 50:15; Jeremiah 50:29; Jeremiah 51:24 with Revelation 18:6; Jeremiah 51:8 with Revelation 18:2; Jeremiah 51:63 with Revelation 18:21. She shares the essential nature and destiny of Babylon. Of all the nations that will drink of the cup of God's wrath, Babylon will be the last (Jeremiah 25:26). (Sheshach is a cypher for Babel).
