Revelation Chapter 17 Verse 5

Interpretation of Revelation Chapter 17 Verse 5

Revelation 17:5 refers to a woman who is described as “Mystery, Babylon the Great, the Mother of the Harlots and of the Abominations of the Earth.” This woman is described as a symbol of the great city of Babylon, a city that was full of idolatry, immorality, and wickedness. She is the source of all the spiritual and moral corruption that is found in the world. This woman is a symbol of the world’s rebellion against God and is a representation of the false religious systems of the world.
