Trumpets, Woes and Warnings
The first four trumpets signals the
Forces of nature hurled in judgment
Against the world. The destruction
Speaks of partial destruction.
John may have used the plagues
That fell on Egypt and Pharaoh
To allow the people to go, as his
Imagery to convey warnings.
The rain looking like blood was
Probably caused by the fine red
Sands of the Sahara Desert caught
In the upper air falling to earth.
The flaming mass falling into the
Sea may be a volcanic eruption.
So in this picture of terror man
Has a preview of woes to come.
Remember this is figurative
Language and not to be taken
Literally, but God is revealing
His judgment upon his enemies.
