1. Babylon would be attacked from the north (1:3, 9, 41) by the “king of the Medes” (51:11, 28).
2. The city would be well provisioned (51:26).
3. The city would trust in its enormous walls, towers, and high gates (51:53, 58).
4. The city would be taken by a clever strategy; it would be “caught in a snare.”
5. The successful strategy would be linked to the city’s water supply. Specifically, God would dry up her “fountain” (51:36).
6. The scheme would be connected with the flow of the Euphrates through Babylon. The “passages” would be taken by surprise, and the reeds would be set on fire (51:32).
7. At the critical time, a feast would be in progress at which all of the nobles and notables would be in attendance.
8. The drunkenness of these people would lead to their slaughter (51:57).
