St. Jerome: Babylon Refers To Rome
In his work Against Jovinianus (Book 2), St. Jerome identifies Rome as the great harlot (Babylon the Great) whose name was written on her forehead. Note that he refers to the city of Rome (not the Catholic Church) as the great harlot.
St. Jerome, Against Jovinianus, Book 2: “But I will now address myself to you, great Rome, who with the confession of Christ have blotted out the blasphemy written on your forehead [Apoc. 17:5]. Mighty city, mistress-city of the world, city of the Apostle's praises, show the meaning of your name... let virtue lift you up on high, let not voluptuousness bring you low. By repentance, as the history of Nineveh proves, you may escape the curse wherewith the Savior threatened you in the Apocalypse.”
Pagan Rome was replaced by Christian Rome, but returns in the last days during the Great Apostasy (which we are living through).
Apocalypse 17:5- “And on her forehead was written a name of mystery: ‘Babylon the great, mother of harlots and of earth’s abominations.’”
