Revelation 18:20–24 answers Babylon’s splendor with final silence. A mighty angel casts a millstone into the sea as a sign of the city’s irreversible fall, and music, craft, commerce, light, and wedding celebration disappear. The closing charge explains the judgment: Babylon deceived the nations and was found responsible for the blood of prophets and saints.
