Studying prophecies in Isaiah can be challenging, but I think we can come to understand them better by recognizing how they can be fulfilled in multiple ways, and by considering their ancient Near Eastern context. In Isaiah 13, Isaiah prophesied that Babylon would ultimately be destroyed for their wickedness, but that prophecy may have been fulfilled in various ways by a couple different ancient empires: Persia and Assyria.
