Purple dye was expensive and difficult to produce, making it a symbol of high status and power. Scarlet, similarly, was a color worn by the elite. In the context of Revelation, these colors may symbolize the seductive allure and deceptive power of the woman, representing a corrupt system or entity that appears attractive and authoritative but is ultimately sinful and opposed to God. and adorned with gold and precious stones and pearls The adornment with gold, precious stones, and pearls signifies opulence and material wealth. In biblical symbolism, such wealth can indicate both blessing and corruption, depending on the context. Here, it suggests the woman's seductive and deceptive nature, using wealth and beauty to entice and lead astray. This imagery echoes the description of Babylon in the Old Testament, a city known for its wealth and idolatry, and serves as a warning against the dangers of materialism and idolatry. She held in her hand a golden cup full of abominations and the impurities of her sexual immorality The golden cup represents something that appears valuable and desirable but is filled with abominations and impurities. In biblical terms, abominations often refer to idolatry and practices detestable to God. The impurities of her sexual immorality symbolize spiritual unfaithfulness and corruption. This imagery is reminiscent ofJeremiah 51:7, where Babylon is described as a golden cup in the Lord's hand, making the nations drunk with her wine. The cup's contents highlight the deceptive nature of sin, appearing attractive but leading to spiritual ruin. Persons / Places / Events 1. The WomanSymbolizes a corrupt and idolatrous system, often interpreted as representing a false religious or political power that opposes God. 2. Purple and ScarletColors associated with royalty, wealth, and luxury, indicating the woman's allure and deceptive grandeur. 3. Gold, Precious Stones, and PearlsSymbols of wealth and opulence, suggesting the seductive nature of the woman's influence. 4.

Abominations and ImpuritiesRefers to the moral and spiritual corruption associated with idolatry and immorality. Teaching Points The Danger of Worldly AllureThe woman's opulent appearance serves as a warning against being seduced by the world's wealth and power, which can lead to spiritual compromise. The Deceptive Nature of SinJust as the golden cup appears attractive but is filled with abominations, sin often appears enticing but leads to destruction. Spiritual DiscernmentBelievers are called to discern the true nature of influences in their lives, recognizing that not all that glitters is godly. The Call to HolinessIn contrast to the impurities of the woman, Christians are called to live lives of purity and devotion to God. The Consequences of IdolatryThe passage serves as a reminder of the severe consequences of idolatry and immorality, urging believers to remain faithful to God.

14.Exodus 37:1-9: How could ancient desert nomads craft such detailed cherubim from pure gold with the tools and resources supposedly available?What Does Revelation 17:4 Mean Dressed in purple and scarlet“The woman was dressed in purple and scarlet” (Revelation 17:4). Purple and scarlet were costly dyes in the ancient world, signaling power, wealth, and royal pretension. Yet here the colors are worn by the harlot Babylon, not a faithful queen. •Revelation 18:16 shows the same colors tied to Babylon’s opulent fall. •Daniel 5:7 gives purple to a pagan ruler;John 19:2 cloaks the mocked Christ in scarlet—both scenes expose counterfeit authority. •Isaiah 1:18 contrasts scarlet sin with cleansing; the woman prefers the stain. Together these texts reveal a dazzling exterior masking rebellion against God. Adorned with gold, precious stones, and pearls“…and adorned with gold and precious stones and pearls.” The lavish jewelry deepens the picture of seductive splendor. •Exodus 28:17–21 arrays Israel’s high priest with gems to serve God; Babylon hijacks that imagery for self-glory. •Revelation 18:12 inventories treasures the city hoarded before judgment. •1 Peter 3:3 warns believers not to rely on external adornment. •Matthew 13:45–46 values a single pearl over all else—here, pearls serve empty vanity. The woman’s riches invite admiration even while they spotlight her spiritual bankruptcy. Holding a golden cup full of abominations“She held in her hand a golden cup full of abominations…” A gold vessel suggests purity and worship (Numbers 7:84–85), but its contents betray its bearer. •Jeremiah 51:7 calls Babylon “a golden cup in the hand of the Lord” that intoxicated nations. •Luke 11:39;Matthew 23:27 illustrate clean exteriors hiding corruption—Jesus’ critique of the Pharisees mirrors this scene. •Revelation 18:6 says God will make her “drink” double judgment from the same cup she mixed. Evil is packaged attractively, luring kings and peoples to share in defilement. The impurities of her sexual immorality“…and the impurities of her sexual immorality.” Scripture often links sexual sin with idolatry—physical acts picture spiritual unfaithfulness. •Hosea 1–3 portrays Israel’s adultery against the Lord. •James 4:4 calls friendship with the world “adultery.” •Revelation 14:8 and 17:2 show nations “drunk” on Babylon’s immorality. Babylon forges alliances—political, economic, religious—that seduce humanity away from Christ, producing moral and spiritual pollution. summaryRevelation 17:4 paints Babylon as dazzling, wealthy, and religiously persuasive, yet utterly corrupt. Her royal colors and costly jewels mimic legitimacy; her golden cup appears sacred; but every symbol is inverted, brimming with idolatry and immorality. The verse warns that what captivates the eyes can poison the soul, urging believers to discern true holiness beneath outward splendor and to resist any allegiance that rivals devotion to the Lamb. (4) And the woman was arrayed . . .--Better, arrayed (or, clad) in purple (the colour of the robe which was in mockery put on our Lord-- John 19:2) and scarlet, gilded (not "decked") with gold,&c. Her appearance is one of imperial splendour. (Comp. the description of Tyre in Ezekiel 28:13.) Having a golden cup in her hand . . .--Translate,Having a golden cup in her hand teeming with abominations and with the unclean things of the fornication of the earth. Jeremiah (Jeremiah 51:7) called Babylon a "golden cup in the hand of the Lord." The cup had made all the earth drunken; the cup of intoxication, splendid and attractive, was full of an evil power, which robbed men's senses and degraded them. The great city of the world ever holds out such a glittering cup, which "Most do taste through fond intemperate desire. Soon as the potion works, their human countenance, Th' express resemblance of the gods, is changed Into some brutish form. . . . . . . . . . Verse 4. - And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour. These words, taken in connection with those that follow, seem to signify the worldly magnificence which may be the portion of the faithless Christian. Some writers see an allusion to the purple robe of Christ. (On the meaning of "scarlet," see on ver. 3.) And decked with gold and precious stones and pearls;gilded with, etc. Similar descriptions are given in Ezekiel 16:13 and Ezekiel 28:13. Compare the description in Revelation 21:11. This account is sufficiently characteristic of the world's attractions to need no comment. Having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication;full of abominations, even the unclean things of, etc. (Revised Version), the Authorized Version reading being placed in the margin. Another reference to Jeremiah 51:7 (cf. also Revelation 14:10). Abominations are all things that are displeasing to God. (On "fornication," see on Revelation 14:8 and Revelation 17:1, 2; it signifies unfaithfulness towards God.)
