Short Class Video about chapters 46-47 (Week of Sept. 19, sixth to listen to)

In this short class video Kerry explains the symbolism behind the Mesopotamian gods Bel and Marduk. He then addresses why Babylon is punished, and does a big overview of these chapters. He also covers verses in 47:7-9 about Babylon thinking they will be a lady forever, and contrasting that with Isaiah 52, since that contrast is crucial for understanding that famous chapter.
