The
question is, “Who is this harlot who sits on many waters?” The
answer starts to unfold if we ask, “What does ‘many waters’ mean?” The
answer to this last question is found in verse 15. There we are told
that the “waters” is a symbol and it refers to people,
multitudes, nations, and tongues. In verse 2 we are told that the
kings of the earth committed acts of immorality with her, and in
Revelation 14:8 we were told that the nations will be drunk with
the wine of her immorality. Together all of this means that the leaders
of the world and the people in their countries will be involved in
her immorality.
