Question¶

How do Revelation's major sequences (churches, seals, trumpets, bowls) relate to each other? Are they parallel recapitulating sequences spanning the same historical period? What structural evidence PROVES recapitulation rather than strict chronological sequence? And how does the 1844 date from Daniel 8:14 align with where the sequences place us in history?

I. THE SEVEN CHURCHES (Revelation 2-3)¶

Revelation 2 (Full Chapter)¶

2:1 Unto the angel of the church of Ephesus write; These things saith he that holdeth the seven stars in his right hand, who walketh in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks; 2:2 I know thy works, and thy labour, and thy patience, and how thou canst not bear them which are evil: and thou hast tried them which say they are apostles, and are not, and hast found them liars: 2:3 And hast borne, and hast patience, and for my name's sake hast laboured, and hast not fainted. 2:4 Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love. 2:5 Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent. 2:6 But this thou hast, that thou hatest the deeds of the Nicolaitans, which I also hate. 2:7 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God. 2:8 And unto the angel of the church in Smyrna write; These things saith the first and the last, which was dead, and is alive; 2:9 I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan. 2:10 Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days: be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life. 2:11 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; He that overcometh shall not be hurt of the second death. 2:12 And to the angel of the church in Pergamos write; These things saith he which hath the sharp sword with two edges; 2:13 I know thy works, and where thou dwellest, even where Satan's seat is: and thou holdest fast my name, and hast not denied my faith, even in those days wherein Antipas was my faithful martyr, who was slain among you, where Satan dwelleth. 2:14 But I have a few things against thee, because thou hast there them that hold the doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balac to cast a stumblingblock before the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed unto idols, and to commit fornication. 2:15 So hast thou also them that hold the doctrine of the Nicolaitans, which thing I hate. 2:16 Repent; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will fight against them with the sword of my mouth. 2:17 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden manna, and will give him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knoweth saving he that receiveth it. 2:18 And unto the angel of the church in Thyatira write; These things saith the Son of God, who hath his eyes like unto a flame of fire, and his feet are like fine brass; 2:19 I know thy works, and charity, and service, and faith, and thy patience, and thy works; and the last to be more than the first. 2:20 Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols. 2:21 And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she repented not. 2:22 Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, except they repent of their deeds. 2:23 And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I am he which searcheth the reins and hearts: and I will give unto every one of you according to your works. 2:24 But unto you I say, and unto the rest in Thyatira, as many as have not this doctrine, and which have not known the depths of Satan, as they speak; I will put upon you none other burden. 2:25 But that which ye have already hold fast till I come. 2:26 And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations: 2:27 And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers: even as I received of my Father. 2:28 And I will give him the morning star. 2:29 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.

Revelation 3 (Full Chapter)¶

3:1 And unto the angel of the church in Sardis write; These things saith he that hath the seven Spirits of God, and the seven stars; I know thy works, that thou hast a name that thou livest, and art dead. 3:2 Be watchful, and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die: for I have not found thy works perfect before God. 3:3 Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee. 3:4 Thou hast a few names even in Sardis which have not defiled their garments; and they shall walk with me in white: for they are worthy. 3:5 He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels. 3:6 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches. 3:7 And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write; These things saith he that is holy, he that is true, he that hath the key of David, he that openeth, and no man shutteth; and shutteth, and no man openeth; 3:8 I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name. 3:9 Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee. 3:10 Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth. 3:11 Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown. 3:12 Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name. 3:13 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches. 3:14 And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God; 3:15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. 3:16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth. 3:17 Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked: 3:18 I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see. 3:19 As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent. 3:20 Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me. 3:21 To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne. 3:22 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.

II. THE SEVEN SEALS (Revelation 4-8:1)¶

Revelation 4 (Full Chapter — Throne Room Prologue)¶

4:1 After this I looked, and, behold, a door was opened in heaven: and the first voice which I heard was as it were of a trumpet talking with me; which said, Come up hither, and I will shew thee things which must be hereafter. 4:2 And immediately I was in the spirit: and, behold, a throne was set in heaven, and one sat on the throne. 4:3 And he that sat was to look upon like a jasper and a sardine stone: and there was a rainbow round about the throne, in sight like unto an emerald. 4:4 And round about the throne were four and twenty seats: and upon the seats I saw four and twenty elders sitting, clothed in white raiment; and they had on their heads crowns of gold. 4:5 And out of the throne proceeded lightnings and thunderings and voices: and there were seven lamps of fire burning before the throne, which are the seven Spirits of God. 4:6 And before the throne there was a sea of glass like unto crystal: and in the midst of the throne, and round about the throne, were four beasts full of eyes before and behind. 4:7 And the first beast was like a lion, and the second beast like a calf, and the third beast had a face as a man, and the fourth beast was like a flying eagle. 4:8 And the four beasts had each of them six wings about him; and they were full of eyes within: and they rest not day and night, saying, Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, which was, and is, and is to come. 4:9-11 [Worship of the Creator by 24 elders]

Revelation 5 (Full Chapter — Lamb Takes Book)¶

5:1 And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a book written within and on the backside, sealed with seven seals. 5:2 And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof? 5:3-4 No man found worthy — John weeps. 5:5 And one of the elders saith unto me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Juda, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof. 5:6-14 Lamb takes the book; universal worship.

Revelation 6 (Full Chapter — Six Seals)¶

6:1 And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see. 6:2 And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer. 6:3-4 Second seal: red horse — peace taken from earth, great sword. 6:5-6 Third seal: black horse — balance/famine, "hurt not the oil and the wine." 6:7-8 Fourth seal: pale horse — Death and Hell — "power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth" [tetarton G5067] 6:9 And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held: 6:10 And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth? 6:11 And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled. 6:12 And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood; 6:13 And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind. 6:14 And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places. [ekinethisan — aorist passive of kineo G2795] 6:15 And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains; 6:16 And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath [orge G3709] of the Lamb: 6:17 For the great day of his wrath [orge G3709] is come [elthen — aorist of erchomai G2064]; and who shall be able to stand?

Revelation 7 (Interlude — Sealing and Great Multitude)¶

7:1-8 Sealing of 144,000 — "Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God" 7:9-17 Great multitude from great tribulation — before the throne, white robes, Lamb feeds them

Revelation 8:1 (Seventh Seal)¶

8:1 And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence [sige G4602] in heaven about the space of half an hour. [egeneto — aorist of ginomai G1096]

III. THE SEVEN TRUMPETS (Revelation 8:2-11:19)¶

Revelation 8 (Full Chapter — Trumpets 1-4)¶

8:1 [Seventh seal — see above] 8:2 And I saw the seven angels which stood before God; and to them were given seven trumpets. 8:3 And another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer; and there was given unto him much incense, that he should offer it with the prayers of all saints upon the golden altar which was before the throne. 8:4 And the smoke of the incense, which came with the prayers of the saints, ascended up before God out of the angel's hand. 8:5 And the angel took the censer, and filled it with fire of the altar, and cast it into the earth: and there were voices, and thunderings, and lightnings, and an earthquake. [THEOPHANY #2: 4 elements] 8:6 And the seven angels which had the seven trumpets prepared themselves to sound. 8:7 The first angel sounded, and there followed hail and fire mingled with blood, and they were cast upon the earth: and the third part [tritos G5154] of trees was burnt up, and all green grass was burnt up. 8:8 And the second angel sounded, and as it were a great mountain burning with fire was cast into the sea: and the third part of the sea became blood; 8:9 And the third part of the creatures which were in the sea, and had life, died; and the third part of the ships were destroyed. 8:10 And the third angel sounded, and there fell a great star from heaven, burning as it were a lamp, and it fell upon the third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains of waters; 8:11 And the name of the star is called Wormwood: and the third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died of the waters, because they were made bitter. 8:12 And the fourth angel sounded, and the third part of the sun was smitten, and the third part of the moon, and the third part of the stars; so as the third part of them was darkened, and the day shone not for a third part of it, and the night likewise. 8:13 And I beheld, and heard an angel flying through the midst of heaven, saying with a loud voice, Woe, woe, woe, to the inhabiters of the earth by reason of the other voices of the trumpet of the three angels, which are yet to sound!

Revelation 9 (Full Chapter — Trumpets 5-6)¶

9:1 And the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star fall from heaven unto the earth: and to him was given the key of the bottomless pit. 9:2-11 Locusts from pit — torment 5 months — king Abaddon/Apollyon 9:12 One woe is past; and, behold, there come two woes more hereafter. 9:13 And the sixth angel sounded, and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar which is before God, 9:14 Saying to the sixth angel which had the trumpet, Loose the four angels which are bound in the great river Euphrates. 9:15 And the four angels were loosed, which were prepared for an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year, for to slay the third part [tritos G5154] of men. 9:18 By these three was the third part of men killed, by the fire, and by the smoke, and by the brimstone, which issued out of their mouths. 9:20 And the rest of the men which were not killed by these plagues yet repented not of the works of their hands, that they should not worship devils, and idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood: which neither can see, nor hear, nor walk: 9:21 Neither repented they of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts.

Revelation 10 (Interlude — Little Book)¶

10:1-7 Mighty angel — little book — "in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished" 10:8-11 John eats the book — sweet then bitter — "thou must prophesy again"

Revelation 11 (Full Chapter — Two Witnesses and 7th Trumpet)¶

[esalpisen — aorist of salpizo G4537; egeneto — aorist of ginomai G1096; egeneto he basileia — "the kingdom became"] 11:16 And the four and twenty elders, which sat before God on their seats, fell upon their faces, and worshipped God, 11:17 Saying, We give thee thanks, O Lord God Almighty, which art, and wast, and art to come; because thou hast taken to thee thy great power, and hast reigned. 11:18 And the nations were angry [orgisthesan — aorist passive of orgizo G3710], and thy wrath [orge G3709] is come [elthen — aorist of erchomai G2064], and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great; and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth. 11:19 And the temple of God was opened in heaven, and there was seen in his temple the ark of his testament: and there were lightnings, and voices, and thunderings, and an earthquake, and great hail. [THEOPHANY #3: 5 elements]

IV. THE CHRONOLOGICAL REGRESSION (Revelation 12:1-6)¶

Revelation 12 (Full Chapter)¶

12:1 And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars: 12:2 And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered. 12:3 And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads. 12:4 And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born. 12:5 And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne. [CRITICAL: Christ's birth/ascension narrated AFTER the eschatological 7th trumpet of 11:15-19 — this is chronological regression/recapitulation] 12:6 And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days. 12:7-9 War in heaven — dragon cast out 12:10 Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ 12:11 And they overcame [enikesen — nikao G3528] him by the blood of the Lamb 12:12 Woe to the inhabiters of the earth... the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath [thymos G2372] 12:13-17 Dragon persecutes woman — remnant keep commandments of God

Revelation 14:1-12¶

14:1-5 Lamb on Mount Sion with 144,000 14:6 And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people, 14:7 Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come [elthen — aorist of erchomai G2064]: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters. [CRITICAL: Same aorist elthen as Rev 6:17 and 11:18 — judgment "has arrived"] 14:8 And there followed another angel, saying, Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath [thymos G2372] of her fornication. 14:9-11 Third angel — wrath on beast worshippers — "wine of the wrath [thymos G2372] of God, poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation [orge G3709]" 14:10 Note: Both orge and thymos appear together — "the wine of the wrath [thymos] of God... the cup of his indignation [orge]" 14:12 Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.

Revelation 14:13-20 (Harvest)¶

14:13 Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth 14:14-16 Son of man on white cloud — grain harvest 14:17-20 Angel with sickle — grape harvest — great winepress of the wrath [thymos G2372] of God

VI. THE SEVEN BOWLS (Revelation 15-16)¶

Revelation 15 (Full Chapter — Bowl Introduction)¶

15:1 And I saw another sign in heaven, great and marvellous, seven angels having the seven last [eschatas — G2078] plagues; for in them is filled up the wrath [thymos G2372] of God. [CRITICAL: "last" implies prior plagues — trumpets called "plagues" (plegai) at 9:20] 15:2 And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire: and them that had gotten the victory [nikao G3528] over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name, stand on the sea of glass, having the harps of God. 15:3 And they sing the song of Moses the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, Great and marvellous are thy works, Lord God Almighty; just and true are thy ways, thou King of saints. 15:4 Who shall not fear thee, O Lord, and glorify thy name? for thou only art holy: for all nations shall come and worship before thee; for thy judgments are made manifest. 15:5 And after that I looked, and, behold, the temple of the tabernacle of the testimony in heaven was opened: 15:6 And the seven angels came out of the temple, having the seven plagues, clothed in pure and white linen, and having their breasts girded with golden girdles. 15:7 And one of the four beasts gave unto the seven angels seven golden vials full of the wrath [thymos G2372] of God, who liveth for ever and ever. 15:8 And the temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God, and from his power; and no man was able to enter into the temple, till the seven plagues of the seven angels were fulfilled. [CRITICAL: Temple closed — intercession ceased. Contrast with 8:3-4 where prayers/incense ascend = intercession open]

Revelation 16 (Full Chapter — Seven Bowls)¶

16:1 And I heard a great voice out of the temple saying to the seven angels, Go your ways, and pour out the vials of the wrath [thymos G2372] of God upon the earth. 16:2 First bowl — upon the earth — noisome sore upon beast-worshippers [cf. Trumpet 1: earth] 16:3 Second bowl — upon the sea — became blood, every living soul died [cf. Trumpet 2: sea; NOTE: no fraction — total] 16:4 Third bowl — upon rivers and fountains — became blood [cf. Trumpet 3: rivers] 16:5-7 Angel of waters: "Thou art righteous... because thou hast judged thus... they have shed the blood of saints and prophets" 16:8 Fourth bowl — upon the sun — scorching heat [cf. Trumpet 4: sun] 16:9 And men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the name of God, which hath power over these plagues: and repented not to give him glory. [ESCALATION: from passive non-repentance (9:20-21) to active blasphemy] 16:10 Fifth bowl — upon seat of beast — darkness [cf. Trumpet 5: darkness] 16:11 And blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores, and repented not of their deeds. 16:12 Sixth bowl — upon great river Euphrates — dried up [cf. Trumpet 6: Euphrates] 16:13-14 Three unclean spirits — gathering to battle of great day of God Almighty 16:15 Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments [Second Coming embedded within 6th bowl] 16:16 Armageddon 16:17 And the seventh angel poured out his vial into the air; and there came a great voice out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, It is done [Gegonen — perfect of ginomai G1096]. [cf. Trumpet 7: egeneto he basileia; Seal climax: elthen he orge] 16:18 And there were voices, and thunders, and lightnings; and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since men were upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake, and so great. [THEOPHANY #4: 5+ elements] 16:19 And the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell: and great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness [thymos G2372] of his wrath [orge G3709]. [BOTH wrath terms combined] 16:20 And every island fled away [ephugen — aorist of pheugo G5343], and the mountains were not found [ouch heurethesan — aorist passive of heurisko G2147]. [cf. 6:14 "every mountain and island were moved (ekinethisan)" — SAME EVENT, different verbs: displaced vs. vanished] 16:21 And there fell upon men a great hail out of heaven, every stone about the weight of a talent: and men blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail; for the plague thereof was exceeding great.
