Daughter Babylon = United States of America + Destroyed = Israel AND Judah return home
Jeremiah 50 is the key to unlocking the climatic time of when 10-Israel (the House of Joseph) AND Judah (the Jews) will return together to Tsiyon (Zion). Zechariah 12:7 predicted/foretold that a remnant of Judah would return first to the Land of Promise and such has already happened, but they (the Jews) still have a very large population remaining in one empire in particular, that is: Daughter Babylon, otherwise known as the United States of America. See the article: Daughter Babylon = United States of America (USA).
According to Jeremiah 50, Daughter Babylon is destroyed and her Mother is humiliated (verse 12) and thus enters the answer to our primary question: When will 10-Israel and Jew-dah return to Zion? The answer is simple. "AT THAT TIME" (verse 4) of Daughter Babylon's destruction, the children of Israel AND Judah will come weeping and seeking Zion (verse 5) together. One must wonder WHY they are weeping! Is it not obvious? Their modern homeland(s) will become an uninhabitable ruin (verse 13) and only a remnant of their people survive (verse 20). Jeremiah 30:11 promised that they would be justly punished and all nations where they are scattered would be destroyed.
The following passage is too important to quote out of context, so please persevere and read carefully. Text in bold and bold red for emphasis. Text in [brackets] is mine.
Jeremiah 50:1-20
(1) The word that יהוה spoke concerning Bab'el, concerning the land of the Chaldeans by Jeremiah the prophet.
(2) “Declare among the nations, and let it be heard. And lift up a banner, let it be heard, and do not conceal it. Say, ‘Bab'el shall be taken, Bel shall be put to shame, Merodak shall be broken, her images shall be put to shame, her idols shall be broken.’
(3) For a nation shall come up against her from the north [Russia?], which shall make her land waste, and none shall dwell in it. They shall flee, they shall go, both man and beast.
(4) “In those days and at that time,” declares יהוה, “the children of Israel shall come, they and the children of Judah together, weeping as they come, and seek יהוה their Elohim.
(5) “They shall ask the way to Zion, their faces toward it, ‘Come and let us join ourselves to יהוה, in an everlasting covenant, never to be forgotten.’
(6) “My people have been wandering [lost, perishing] sheep. Their shepherds [pastors, priest, rabbis] have led them astray, turning them away on the mountains. They have gone from mountain to hill, they have forgotten their resting place.
(7) “All who found them have devoured them. And their adversaries have said, ‘We are not guilty, because they have sinned against יהוה, the Home of righteousness, and the Expectation of their fathers: יהוהl.’
(8) “Flee from the midst of Bab'el, come out of the land of the Chaldeans. And be as rams before a flock.
(9) “For look, I am stirring up and bringing up against Bab'el an assembly of great nations [peoples] from a land of the north, and they shall array themselves against her. From there she shall be captured – their arrows are like those of a mighty skilled man, not returning empty-handed.
(10) “And Chaldea shall become plunder, all who plunder her shall satisfy themselves,” declares יהוהl.
(11) “Because you were glad, because you rejoiced, you who plunder My inheritance, because you have grown fat like a heifer threshing grain, and you neigh like stallions,
(12) your mother shall be greatly ashamed. She who bore you shall be humiliated. Look, the last of the nations, a wilderness, a dry land and a desert.
(13) “Because of the wrath of יהוה she shall not be inhabited, but she shall be deserted – all of it. Everyone passing by Bab'el shall be astonished and whistle [hiss] at all her plagues.
(14) “Set yourselves in array against Bab'el all around, all you who bend the bow. Shoot at her, spare no arrows, for she has sinned against יהוהl.
(15) “Shout against her all around. She has given her hand, her foundations have fallen, her walls are thrown down, for it is the vengeance of יהוה. Take vengeance on her. As she has done, so do to her.
(16) “Cut off the sower from Bab'el, and him who handles the sickle at harvest time. From before the sword of the oppressor each one turns to his own people, and each one flees to his own land [not only Israel and Judah, but also the mixed multitude in her mix].
(17) “Israel is a scattered sheep, the lions have driven him away. First the sovereign of Ashshur devoured him, and now, at last, this Nebukadretstsar sovereign of Bab'el has broken his bones.”
(18) Therefore thus said יהוה of hosts, the Elohim of Israel, “See, I am punishing the sovereign of Bab'el and his land, as I have punished the sovereign of Ashshur.
(19) “And I shall bring back Israel to his pasture, and he shall feed on Karmel and Bashan. And his being shall be satisfied on Mount Ephrayim and Gilad.
(20) “In those days and at that time,” declares יהוה, “the crookedness of Israel shall be searched for, but there shall be none; and the sin of Judah, but none shall be found. For I shall pardon those whom I leave as a remnant.
Parting Thoughts and Questions
Of course, the USA is not the only habitation for 10-Israel (a multitude of peoples) and Jew-dah, but at the time of the destruction of Daughter Babylon, the entire world will be unsafe for all the righteous remnants of Jacob... which will be the needed catalyst for 10-Israel and the rest of Judah to return to their original Promise Land between the Nile and Euphrates. 10-Israel and Judah are told to 'come out' of Babylon (likely Mother and Daughter), so that should be a clue for those skeptics who think 10-Israel is lost or unidentifiable in our time, the Last Days. Locate the Jews of Judah and you'll have the key to locating and identifying both Mystery Babylons and the children of the Lost Ten Tribes of Israel.
Eventually, Mother Babylon will be destroyed also, but not by the Bear of Russia and his company of nations, but instead by the Messiah, Son of David! His remnant from Ephraim's "multitudes" will have already been gathered with Judah, "at that time" of Daughter Babylon's destruction, and it will be at their climatic defense that Messiah destroys Mother Babylon.
When will the army from the North destroy Daughter Babylon, as verse 9 suggests? And is it wise for us to leave Daughter Babylon before the destruction? How do we know the best time to leave if we don't know the exact time of the destruction?
