Revelation 19:2for true and righteous are his judgments. For he has judged the great prostitute, who corrupted the earth with her sexual immorality, and he has avenged the blood of his servants at her hand."
The setting
Island of Patmos, Greece ~95 AD. John sees heaven's throne room celebrating final justice...
The emotion here: exiled and persecuted but overwhelmed by divine revelation
The original word
krisis (κρίσις) — judgment that separates truth from lies, not mere punishment
Why it matters
The 'great prostitute' likely represents Rome, which had just destroyed Jerusalem in 70 AD
