2 Nephi 23

The destruction of Babylon is the focus of this chapter and these verses are in dualism so they are also descriptive of the destruction at the second coming. The one interesting thing to me is that Isaiah prophecies that once it is destroyed, Babylon which had been a great and beautiful city, will never be inhabited again. They know now where Bablyon was, but it basically disappeared just like Sodom and Gomorrah and just like Isaiah said it would. The signs of destruction in this chapter are not very pleasant and I would not want to be counted among the wicked at that time.
