Revelation 14:8
There followed another angel, saying, Babylon is fallen. As a
result of the great gospel revival shown in Revelation 14:6, the city
of sin, here called Babylon, but called spiritually "Sodom and Egypt,
where also our Lord was crucified" (Revelation 11:8) shall fall.
Because she made all nations drink of the wine of wrath. So
called either because her wrath was manifested in persecution against
those who refused to drink, or because the wine of God's wrath shall be
poured on her. See Revelation 14:10.
Of her fornication. This Babylon was a city of fornication, of
unholy alliance with the world, wedded to the prince of this world
instead of to Christ, and made the nations sin with her, or drink her
wine.
