Land of Ararat

아라랏 땅

Named at 2 Kings 19:37 as the land into which Adrammelech and Sharezer escaped. 19:36–37 says, “So Sennacherib king of Assyria departed, went home, and lived at Nineveh. As he was worshiping in the house of Nisroch his god, Adrammelech and Sharezer struck him with the sword; and they escaped into the land of Ararat.” This collection keeps it apart from Ararat’s mountains of Genesis 8:4.

²⁷“Set up a standard in the land! Blow the trumpet among the nations! Prepare the nations against her! Call together against her the kingdoms of Ararat, Minni, and Ashkenaz! Appoint a marshal against her! Cause the horses to come up as the swarming locusts!
²⁸Prepare against her the nations, the kings of the Medes, its governors, and all its deputies, and all the land of their dominion!
²⁹The land trembles and is in pain; for the purposes of the LORD against Babylon stand, to make the land of Babylon a desolation, without inhabitant.
³⁰The mighty men of Babylon have stopped fighting, they remain in their strongholds. Their might has failed. They have become as women. Her dwelling places are set on fire. Her bars are broken.
³¹One runner will run to meet another, and one messenger to meet another, to show the king of Babylon that his city is taken on every quarter.
³²So the passages are seized. They have burned the reeds with fire. The men of war are frightened.”
³³For the LORD of Armies, the God of Israel says: “The daughter of Babylon is like a threshing floor at the time when it is trodden. Yet a little while, and the time of harvest comes for her.”
