Revelation 17:16-17…"They shall eat her flesh and burn her with fire." (Are they going to eat her first and then burn her?)

You mor_n, 2,270,971 were killed by g_d passion (not including, at least in some cases, women, children and unborn babies). Then g_d sent J___s secretly to “repair” his name. Everything was well-planned.
857 verses are outdated, and almost all are expired. Why you still referring to the outdated stuff??

This whore is MYSTERY BABYLON, or Religion.

It is all symbolic.

And shall eat her flesh - Shall completely destroy her - as if her flesh were consumed. Perhaps the image is taken from the practice of cannibals eating the flesh of their enemies slain in battle. If so, nothing could give a more impressive idea of the utter destruction of this formidable power, or of the feelings of those by whom its end would be brought about.
And burn her with fire - Another image of total destruction. Perhaps the meaning may be, that after her flesh was eaten, such parts of her as remained would be thrown into the fire and consumed. If this be the meaning, the image is a very impressive one to denote absolute and total destruction.

Rev 17:16 And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire.
Rev 17:17 For God hath put in their hearts to fulfill his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled.

The verse should not be translated in its literal meaning.
This verse is in reference to the fall of the great city which is Babylon representing a church which is not a true church of God. This church will be reign by the satan.
The flesh of the human body will be eaten by the worms but the soul at the judgement time will be burn to the lake of fire to be eaten by the snake who enticed Eve to commit a sin by eating the tree of knowledge. which was prohibited by God to eat.

This know that in the last days perilous times shall come , for men shall be lovers of themselves , covetous ,
boasters , proud , blasphemers , disobedient to parents , unthankful , unholy , without natural affection ,
trucebreakers , false accusers , incontinent , fierce , despisers of those that are good , traitors , heady ,
high-minded , lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God , having a form of godliness but denying the power
of it ; from such turn away . For this of this sort are they who creep into houses and lead captive silly women
laden with sins , led away with various lusts , ever learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth
