The Burden of Babylon
The record concerning Lucifer is part of a prophecy of the overthrow of Nebuchadnezzar’s dynasty by the Medes and Persians, commencing with the beginning of Isaiah 13., and ending at verse 27, inclusive of the next chapter. Lucifer is Belshazzar, who was so named 181 years before his fall, because he was the light-bearer, or sun, of the Chaldean heaven.

In Isaiah 13. the enemy to destroy Babylon was said to come from “the end of heaven,” that is, from beyond the bounds of the Babylonian heaven.

“Babylon, the glory of kingdoms, shall be as when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrha, (Isaiah chap. 13. verse 19). “As God overthrew Sodom and Gomortha, and the neighbour cities thereof, saith the Lord, so shall no man dwell there.” (Jer. 1:40).
