This article is a POV fork for theological claims about Babylon. The 'Book of Revelation' section should be merged into Whore of Babylon. The article name is not necessary as a redirect. Jeffro77 (talk) 22:50, 30 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Merge or redirect as others have suggested. Most of the content seems to be related to or inspired by the Revelation reference. The brief discussion of 1 Peter 5:13 probably need to be merged into the whore article, but the NT hisotrical references need to be merged to the NT section of Babylon, as does the reference to the Assyrian see. I recall that one version of the Talmud is described as Babylonian; if so, that needs to be covered in the article on Babylon. Peterkingiron (talk) 13:10, 6 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
