Contextual Overview

¹ This is what the Lord says: "I will stir up a destroyer against Babylon and the people of Babylonia. ² Foreigners will come and winnow her, blowing her away as chaff. They will come from every side to rise against her in her day of trouble. ³ Don't let the archers put on their armor or draw their bows. Don't spare even her best soldiers! Let her army be completely destroyed. ⁴ They will fall dead in the land of the Babylonians, slashed to death in her streets. ⁵ For the Lord of Heaven's Armies has not abandoned Israel and Judah. He is still their God, even though their land was filled with sin against the Holy One of Israel." ⁶ Flee from Babylon! Save yourselves! Don't get trapped in her punishment! It is the Lord 's time for vengeance; he will repay her in full. ⁷ Babylon has been a gold cup in the Lord 's hands, a cup that made the whole earth drunk. The nations drank Babylon's wine, and it drove them all mad. ⁸ But suddenly Babylon, too, has fallen. Weep for her. Give her medicine. Perhaps she can yet be healed. ⁹ We would have helped her if we could, but nothing can save her now. Let her go; abandon her. Return now to your own land. For her punishment reaches to the heavens; it is so great it cannot be measured. ¹⁰ The Lord has vindicated us. Come, let us announce in Jerusalem everything the Lord our God has done.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

My people, go ye out of the midst of her,.... This is a call of the Jews to go out of Babylon, not before the taking of the city by Cyrus; but when he should issue out a proclamation, giving them liberty to return to their own land; which many of them, being well settled in Babylon, would not be ready to accept of, but choose to continue there; wherefore they are urged to depart from thence, because of the danger they would be exposed unto; for though the city was not destroyed by Cyrus upon his taking it, yet it was by Darius Hystaspes some time after. The same call is given to the people of God to come out of mystical Babylon, Revelation 18:4;

and deliver ye every man his soul from the fierce anger of the Lord; shown in the destruction of Babylon; Revelation 18:4- :.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The fierce anger of the Lord - i. e., against Babylon. The people of God are to flee away that they may not be involved in the miseries of Babylon. See the Jeremiah 50:8 note.
