Historically, Babylon was a center of pagan worship and moral corruption. The call to "come out" echoes the exodus motif, where God called the Israelites out of Egypt. It also parallels <a href="/revelation/18-4.htm">Revelation 18:4</a>, where believers are urged to leave Babylon, representing the world's corrupt systems. This separation is not just physical but spiritual, urging believers to live holy lives distinct from worldly influences.<p><b>Save your lives, each of you,</b><br>The emphasis on individual responsibility highlights the personal nature of salvation. In the context of Jeremiah, this was a literal call to flee the impending destruction of Babylon. Spiritually, it underscores the necessity for each person to respond to God's call for repentance and salvation. This aligns with the biblical theme that salvation is a personal decision, as seen in <a href="/philippians/2-12.htm">Philippians 2:12</a>, where believers are encouraged to "work out your own salvation with fear and trembling."<p><b>from the fierce anger of the LORD.</b><br>This phrase refers to God's righteous judgment against sin and rebellion. In Jeremiah's time, it was a warning of the impending judgment on Babylon due to its idolatry and oppression. The "fierce anger" of the LORD is a recurring theme in the Old Testament, illustrating God's holiness and justice. It serves as a reminder of the consequences of sin and the urgency of repentance. This concept is also seen in the New Testament, where God's wrath is revealed against all ungodliness (<a href="/romans/1-18.htm">Romans 1:18</a>), yet through Christ, believers are saved from this wrath (<a href="/1_thessalonians/1-10.htm">1 Thessalonians 1:10</a>).<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/j/jeremiah.htm">Jeremiah</a></b><br>A major prophet in the Old Testament, known for his prophecies concerning the judgment and restoration of Israel and the surrounding nations.<br><br>2. <b><a href="/topical/b/babylon.htm">Babylon</a></b><br>The empire and city that symbolizes human pride and opposition to God.
