Gill's Notes on the Bible
Deliver thyself, O Zion,.... Or make thy escape, you that belong to Mount Zion, the city of the living God, and ought to have your abode there, and not in Babylon: flee from thence,
that dwelleth [with] the daughter of Babylon; in any of the antichristian states, who are the daughters of Babylon, the mother of harlots, Revelation 17:5 so it may be rendered, "that inhabits the daughter of Babylon" k; dwells in any of the cities, towns, and villages, belonging to it.
k יושבת בת בבל, οι κατοικουντες θυγατερα βαβυλωνος, Sept.; "habitatrix filiae Babel", Pagninus, Montanus, Drusius; "[vel] inhabitans filiam Babel", De Dieu.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Dwellest with the daughter of Babylon - The unusual idiom is perhaps chosen as expressive of God’s tenderness, even to the people who were to be destroyed, from which Israel was to escape.
