Marduk, chief god of Babylon (proper name of Babylonian deity)
Marduk (Hebrew Merodach) was the chief god of Babylon, especially prominent during Nebuchadnezzar's era. The name appears in Jeremiah 50:2 in an oracle against Babylon: 'Bel is put to shame; Marduk is dismayed'. The prophecy declares the humiliation of Babylon's patron deity, signaling the empire's fall. In Akkadian, Marduk was the supreme god who defeated chaos and created order. The Hebrew rendering preserves the divine name while announcing its impotence before Yahweh. The theophoric element appears in royal names like Merodach-baladan.
Sentidos
1. sense 1 — Marduk, the chief god of Babylon and patron deity of that empire. Jeremiah's oracle declares this powerful god will be shattered along with Bel (another name for Marduk or a related deity). The prophecy asserts Yahweh's supremacy over even Babylon's mightiest divine protector. The name preserves Akkadian Marduk, rendered into Hebrew script. Ancient readers would recognize the claim: Israel's God defeats Babylon's god. 1×
