Commentary on Isaiah 47:7
Theological / DevotionalA lady for ever. In boastful confidence Babylon thought she would always be the chief city and mistress of the world. Rome similarly considered herself the “eternal city.” In the last days mystical Babylon would also regard herself a queen destined to “see no sorrow” (Rev. 18:7).
Remember the latter end. In her hour of prosperity and glory Babylon failed to consider the result of her evil course and her arrogant pride. Happy are those today who remember that “Whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap” (Gal. 6:7), and that paths of wrong are “ways of death” (Prov. 14:12).
