to Nimrod as told in Genesis 10:9 and 10. Nimrod was indeed the “mighty hunter against
Jahwah."
Continuing on with Jeremiah 50 and this thing called “desolation”:
For a nation shall come up against her from the north, which shall maker her land DESO-
LATE (Shammah), and none shall dwell in it. They shall flee, they shall go, both man
and beast.
“In those days, at that time,” declares Jahwah, “the people of Israel and the people of Ju-
dah together will go in tears to seek Jahwah their Elohim.
They will ask the way to Zion and turn their faces toward it. They will come and bind
themselves to Jahwah in an everlasting covenant that will not be forgotten.
“My people have been lost sheep; their SHEPHERDS HAVE LED THEM ASTRAY
AND CAUSED THEM TO ROAM ON THE MOUNTAINS.
Remember in Jer. 51:25, Babel is described as the “Destroying Mountain.” See also
Revelation 17:9 -- the Babylonian whore sits on seven mountains.
They wandered over mountain and hill and FORGOT THEIR OWN RESTING PLACE.
What did they forget? They forgot their own place of rest – The SEVENTH DAY of Crea-
tion, which was sanctified and set apart – THE WEEKLY SABBATH of rest kept by the Moon.
Whoever found them devoured them; their enemies said, ‘We are not guilty, for they
sinned against Jahwah, their true pasture – Jahwah, the hope of their fathers.’
“Flee from Babel, leave the land of the Chaldeans (astrologers), be like the rams at the
head of the flock.
For I will stir up and bring against Babel an alliance of great nations from the land of the
north. They will take up their positions against her, and from the north she will be cap-
tured. Their arrows will be like skilled warriors who do not return empty handed.
Thus Chaldea will be plundered; all who plunder her will have their fill,” declares
Jahwah….
Because of Jahwah's anger she will not be inhabited but will be completely DESOLATE
(Shemamah). All who pass Babylon will be horrified and scoff because of all her
WOUNDS.
This verse relates that Babel is WOUNDED. Can this refer again to the Beast of Revela-
tion 13: Verse 3 “And I saw one of his HEADS as it were WOUNDED to death; and his
DEADLY WOUND was healed; and all the WORLD WONDERED AFTER THE BEAST.”
