Micah 5:10
And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the LORD, that I will cut off thy horses out of the midst of thee, and I will destroy thy chariots: And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the LORD, that I will cut off thy horses out of the midst of thee, and I will destroy thy chariots:
Micah 5 is to be read together with Micah 4 and with the birth of the man-child in Revelation 12. Taken together they show that Babylon is the very beginning of the seven-headed beast system of Revelation 17. That system is church-and-state government in union. Its beginning came when the kingdom was taken away from Israel at the time Judah went into captivity to Babylon.
