[0] Babel - Strong's OT#894 / Bâbel, baw-bel'; from H1101; confusion; Babel (i.e. Babylon), including Babylonia and the Babylonian empire:—Babel, Babylon.]
a. History of Babylon - Scripture represents the "beginning of the kingdom" as belonging to the time of Nimrod / son of Cush / son of Ham who was cursed (Genesis.9:18-25; 10:6-10, 1Chron.1:10). b. The early annals of Babylon are filled by Berosus, the native historian, with three dynasties: one of 49 Chaldean kings, who reigned 458 years; another of 9 Arab kings, who reigned 245 years; and a third of 49 Assyrian monarchs, who held dominion for 526 years. c. The line of Babylonian kings becomes exactly known to us from B.C. 747. The "Canon of Ptolemy" gives us the succession of Babylonian monarchs from B.C. 747 to B.C. 331, when the last Persian king was dethroned by Alexander. c. On the fall of Nineveh, B.C. 625, Babylon became not only an independent kingdom, but an empire. d. The city was taken by surprise B.C. 539, as Jeremiah had prophesied (Jeremiah 51:31) by Cyrus, under Darius, Daniel 5, as intimated 170 years earlier by Isaiah (Isaiah 21:1-9) and, as Jeremiah had also fore‐ shown (Jeremiah.51:39) during a festival. e. With the conquest of Cyrus commenced the decay of Babylon, which has since been a quarry from which all the tribes in the vicinity have derived the bricks with which they have built their cities. The "great city" has thus emphatically "become heaps." (Jeremiah 51:37). "Dictionaries - Babel." Blue Letter Bible.

[0] Babylon (Babel) is seen through out scripture as opposing God and His Redemptive Plan (Josh.7:20, 2Kings.17:21-34; 20:12-17; 24:1-20; 25:1-28, 2Chron.36:1-22, Rev.17-18)
[0] From the east - An interesting note that the garden of God was placed eastward in Eden (Gen.2:8)
[0] Copied - Lucifer (old serpent, the Devil, and Satan, who is also seen as the great (red) dragon Rev.12:9, Isa,14:11-14, Eze.28:19-28) said "I will be like the most High." This purpose is seen throughout the Bible from Genesis to Revelation. (2Cor.11:1-15, Gen.3:1-)
[0] To bring confusion - There is a "decently and in order" when functioning in the gits of the Spirit. This is the the theme / context of this a verse. (1Cor.14:33)
[0] Jesus Christ, and him crucified - Which was "foreordained before the foundation of the World) i.e. The Word made flesh and dwelling amongst us (1Peter.1:18-20, Eph.2:1-22; 3:1-12, John.1:1-14)
[0] Thou (you) Tyrus (King of Babylon) - Obviously "king Tyrus" was not in the garden (Eze.28:13) There were only God, Adam and Eve and the serpent in the garden. (Gen.3:1-24) This connection between Ezekiel and Isaiah is the "old serpent." Now that this connection is made we can see what Lucifer's position was and why he fell. a. Thou art fallen from heaven Lucifer (Isa.14:12) Cut down to the ground (Isa.14:12) b. For thou (you) have said...
