1a	2 Ne. 23: 1 (1-22) 1 ^aThe burden of ^bBabylon, which Isaiah the son of Amoz did see.
b	‘Burden’ as used in Isaiah is a message of doom ‘lifted up’ against a people. Isa. 14: 28. 28 In the ^ayear that king ^bAhaz died was this ^cburden.
c	The historic destruction of wicked Babylon, prophesied in Isa. 13 and 14, is made typical of the ultimate destruction of the whole wicked world. D&C 133: 14 (5, 7, 14) 14 Go ye ^aout from among the nations, even from ^bBabylon, from the midst of ^cwickedness, which is spiritual Babylon.
