Zechariah. Wickedness Banned. 5:5-11. 26 January 2025
Zec 5:5 The angel who was talking to me appeared and said to me,
'Raise your eyes, and see what this is, going along.'
6 I said, 'What is it?'
He said, 'It is a bushel measure going along.'
He went on, 'This is their guilt throughout the country.'
7 At this, a disc of lead was raised,
and I saw a woman sitting inside the barrel.
8 He said, 'This is Wickedness.'
And he rammed her back into the barrel
and jammed its mouth shut with the mass of lead.
9 I raised my eyes, and there were two women appearing.
The wind caught their wings
-- they had wings like a stork's;
they raised the barrel midway between earth and heaven.
10 I then said to the angel who was talking to me,
'Where are they taking the barrel?'
11 He replied,
'To build a temple for it in the land of Shinar
and make a pedestal on which to put it.'

Wickedness Locked Up
It appears that the Wickedness of Babel was captured.
Wickedness Temple Babel
Two angel-like women transported Wickedness to build a temple in Babel (Shinnar.)
I realized with reading this scripture that the Jews had been banned to this place too. It may have been almost the location of the lost and locked paradise.
Prayer
Jesus, what is the place where I have been 'banned' to? What temples of evil are present in my country? And where is the promised land?
