Babylonians [1]
bab -i -lō´ni -anz : The inhabitants of Babylonia (which see). They were among the colonists planted in Samaria by the Assyrians ( Ezra 4:9 ). "The likeness of the Babylonians in Chaldea" ( Ezekiel 23:15 ) refers to the pictures which were common on the walls of Babylonian palaces, and the reports of them being heard in Jerusalem, or copies of them seen there, awakened the nation's desire for these unknown lovers, which Judah had ample occasion to repent of ( Ezekiel 23:17 , Ezekiel 23:23; compare 2 Ki 24).
