Yeah, I think they mean something else by (((merchants))).
This is a verse about the destruction of the whore of babylon. The mother of all whores. Set in a city with seven hills (Jerusalem). She gets a double portion of what she dished out.
Rome also sits on 7 hills.
Consider the wine of her fornication to be false doctrine and the waters she sits on to be many peoples and souls. The most powerful and popular religion in the world is centered in Rome.
In the context of the bible this is clearly about jerusalem and not rome.
plural noun: merchants
1.
a person or company involved in wholesale trade, especially one dealing with foreign countries or supplying merchandise to a particular trade.
When the Bible was written, who were the happy traveling merchants?
