Inhaltsangabe

Excerpt from The Prophecies of the Captivity (Isaiah XL LXVI): Explained According to the Revised Version

This is the popular form of the name, as it is given in the Second Book of Kings. The more correct form - Nebuchadrezzar - is regularly used by Ezekiel and sometimes by Jeremiah. It signifies Nebo, protect the crown.' Nebo was one of the most important deities of Babylon, the 'prophet god,' the 'wise,' the creator of peace,' the 'opener' and 'enlarger of the ear.' His father had joined with the Medes in overthrowing the power of Assyria, and for nearly three-quarters of a century (605 - 538) the Babylonian empire was the ruling force in Western Asia.
