Revelation 11 Commentary

Please choose a passage

Revelation 11:1-6 meaning

Continuing in the interlude between the sixth and seventh trumpets, the Gentiles are given to dominate the court outside the temple for the same length of time that two witnesses are given authority to prophesy. The witnesses are also given special powers to protect themselves with fire so that they cannot be harmed during their time of prophesying. 

Revelation 11:7-10 meaning

The witnesses’ time of prophesying has ended and the beast comes out of the abyss and kills them. The people have not repented and rejoice that the witnesses have died. 

Revelation 11:11-14 meaning

The witnesses who were killed by the beast are revived and brought up into heaven. And the second woe, an earthquake that kills seven thousand people, causes those who remain to give glory to God. 

Revelation 11:15-19 meaning

The seventh angel sounds his trumpet. Voices from heaven proclaim that the kingdom of God is here. The elders give thanks to God and remember His deeds, that it is time for the dead to be judged and the bond-servants to be rewarded. Finally, the temple of God in heaven opens and the ark of His covenant is revealed.
