And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication:
Esta mujer estaba vestida lujosamente con púrpura y escarlata, adornada con oro, piedras preciosas y perlas. Pero tenía en su mano una copa de oro llena de abominaciones y de las inmundicias de su prostitución.
La mujer aparenta riqueza y belleza exterior, pero sostiene una copa llena de corrupción espiritual.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the book of Revelation, written by the apostle John during his exile on the island of Patmos amid Roman persecution of Christians, this verse depicts a vision of a woman symbolizing Babylon, which represents corrupt empires and false religions that oppose God. Historically, purple and scarlet were colors associated with Roman royalty and wealth, while the golden cup filled with abominations highlights the moral corruption and idolatry of ancient pagan societies. This imagery draws from Old Testament prophecies about Babylon's judgment, serving as a warning about the dangers of worldly allure.
