[#1] - the vision (scroll) is the ride and victory (Ps.2) of the white horse rider, the gospel 6:1-2
[#2] - the vision is told 3 times — 6:1-2 to 11:19 - ch.12 a stand alone history and insert (but vs 17 needs Mt.23:39) - and 13:1 to 19:11. All 3 meet again at the seventh trumpet.
[#3] - the seals are described - at their first occurrence (ch.6) as their fuLL effects on planet Earth, first to very last, veiling what, especially seal 6 is and why Rev.7:1,3 (9,4)
[#4] - the Rev.13:13 event pinpoints an office, not (yet?) a person
[#5] - The “false prophet” mentioned once in the vision has a huGe role. It is not the 13:13 office but enabled the event/seal. Its “strong delusion” of “seating man in the temple as God”/highest power (man/anthropos, this too not yet? a man) caused western culture to “fall away”. It has modern wonders, “miracles to mislead” and of course a prophecy.
