In this episode of Luke21, Steve Wood explores Revelation 17 and the mysterious figure of Babylon the Great Harlot. Who is the woman riding the scarlet beast, and what is the “great city” that dominates the kings of the earth?
Steve explains why Babylon represents first-century Rome, while also pointing beyond Rome to the recurring pattern of godless world empires that culminate in the final Antichrist. Drawing on Scripture, biblical history, and the Catechism of the Catholic Church (CCC 675–677), this episode highlights the prophetic tension between past fulfillment and end-times reality.
A clear and compelling Catholic guide to understanding Babylon, Revelation, and the Church’s final trial.
