Like a mighty symphony..
Each note (and scene) of the Book of Revelation once begun,
continues throughout the rest of the production.
In this scene, the Lamb is worthy to unroll the scroll.
~ The scroll which is the Book of Revelation.
~ The scroll which is the Book of Revelation.
Each time one of six seals (of seven) on the scroll are broken,
the Book of Revelation scroll is unrolled a little further.
Many believe the seals are only late days influences.
Book of Revelation in a box called 7 years.
Book of Revelation in a box called 7 years.
I believe they are elements of the latter age ~ the years of our Lord A.D.
When the First Seal is broken open...
A white horse and rider come forth...
"conquering and to conquer.."
(the gospel rides forth)
*
The First Four Seals are called,
The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.
Their rides continue to the end of the age.
And escalate as time progresses.
When the Second Seal is broken open...
A red horse and rider come forth, called war.
(Ancient, relentless. It is "given a long sword".)
(Ancient, relentless. It is "given a long sword".)
When the Third Seal is broken open,
A black horse and rider, holding scales, comes forth.
When the Fourth Seal is broken open...
A pale horse and rider come forth,
whose "name is death and the grave follows"
including the mass grave (grave often translated 'hell').
whose "name is death and the grave follows"
including the mass grave (grave often translated 'hell').
[War's other companion, pestilence, including chemical.]

When the Fifth Seal is broken open...Like the blood of Abel, the blood of martyrs calls out to the LORD..
(Martyrdom throughout the age / and escalates.)
When the Sixth Seal is broken open..

* The Seals are described as a blend of what they are
[1] - at their first, and
[2] - at their last
In this way, things which occur very late upon the planet,
are described here, in chapter 6 - so very early in the narrative.
~ By this fancy footwork ~
A lock upon, and confusing of the vision,
"for many days".
"...hid themselves in the caves and in the rocks of the mountains.." Revelation 6:15
(Remember 'bomb shelters' back in the day?)
After this element (Seal, the split atom) was opened,
"..four angels standing at the four corners of the earth, holding back the four winds"
.."Do not harm the land or the sea or the trees until
we put a seal on the foreheads of
the servants of our God'.”
Rev 7:1-3
"144,000 of Israel... and a great crowd from
every nation and tribe.."
7:4 and 9
~ Interlude / pause of the split atom as warfare. ~
