  • Summary

  • In Revelation, Babylon is a code word for Rome and serves as a parable for understanding the oppression of empire in all times and places. This episode, my final one on the book of Revelation, explores the image of Babylon, why its fall is good news, and how we might apply these Scriptures today.
