[§302] Rev 18:17-19: Four Groups of Mariners Shall Cry and Weep

This podcast explains the imagery and symbolism used by John in Revelation 18:17-19 to describe how the mariners of modern Babylon will mourn and grieve when Babylon is destroyed, as follows: “For in one hour so great riches is come to nought. And every shipmaster, and all the company in ships, and sailors, and as many as trade by sea, stood afar off, And cried when they saw the smoke of her burning, saying, What [city is] like unto this great city! And they cast dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and wailing, saying, Alas, alas, that great city, wherein were made rich all that had ships in the sea by reason of her costliness! for in one hour is she made desolate.”    The Mariners are described in four different categories of seamen who grieve because their livelihood and excessive profits will be lost from transporting the goods of Babylon when the "great city" is destroyed in a single hour.   This podcast also describes the heavenly host in Revelation 18:20, who rejoices when Babylon falls physically. In fact, the voice of God the Father commands them to rejoice “over her, thou heaven, and ye holy apostles and prophets; for God hath avenged you on her.” -------------------------- Chapters 00:00 Welcome to Unveiling Jesus Christ 00:30 Introduction to Rev 18:17-20 01:58 Babylon falls in One Hour 08:50 The four Classes of Mariners in Babylon  15:17 The Symbolism of the Seamen 20:58 The Mariners Mourn (Rev 18:18-19) 27:53 The Heavens Rejoice Over Babylon’s Fall -------------------------- 🔗 Where to Find More from Unveiling Jesus Christ ► Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/UnveilingJesusChrist ► Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/unveilingjesuschrist/ ► Website: https://www.unveilingjesuschrist.com/
