ヨハネの黙示録 16:20 JC

Arno Gaebelein's Annotated Bible - Revelation 16:1-21

CHAPTER 16 Revelation 16:1-2 . The great voice commands the seven angels to go on their way and to empty the bowls upon the earth (Ps. 49:24). And these vials of judgments affect not only the Roman Empire, but the entire world, for the whole world is guilty before God. The first vial poured out produces a grievous sore upon the worshipers of the beast. While it is undoubtedly true that we have symbols also in these vial judgments, it is nevertheless possible that some of these plagues may... read more

Geneva Study Bible - Revelation 16:20

16:20 And every island fled away, and the mountains {29} were not {b} found.(29) That is, were seen no more, or were no more extant. A borrowed Hebraism.(b) Literally "appeared not"; Genesis 5:24 read more

L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - Revelation 16:1-21

The First Bowl Poured Out (vv. 1-2) A great voice from the temple now commands the execution of judgment. Grace has been patient; justice has not been hasty, but is to be apportioned out precisely according the measure of guilt. Yet when it comes, it cannot spare: it will be swift, unerring, awesome. The first angel pours out his bowl on the earth with a resulting loathsome and grievous sore upon those who receive the mark of the beast and who worship his image (Revelation 13:15-16). Since... read more

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Revelation 16:1-21

THE SEVEN VIALS The law of recurrence finds a further illustration here for we are still in the Tribulation period, the latter half of Daniel’s seventieth week, and are looking upon the features of that day of judgment. The Introduction includes the whole of chapter 15, being the revelation of the “overcomers” and the seven angels. No one can read this without being struck by its likeness to the song of Moses after Israel’s deliverance from Pharaoh at the Red Sea. (Exodus 15:0 ). The... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Revelation 16:17-21

(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. (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. (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... read more

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Revelation 16:17-21

17-21 The seventh and last angel poured forth his vial, and the downfal of Babylon was finished. The church triumphant in heaven saw it and rejoiced; the church in conflict on earth saw it and became triumphant. God remembered the great and wicked city; though for some time he seemed to have forgotten her idolatry and cruelty. All that was most secure was carried away by the ruin. Men blasphemed: the greatest judgments that can befal men, will not bring to repentance without the grace of God.... read more

F. B. Hole's Old and New Testament Commentary - Revelation 16:1-99

Revelation 16 AS WE READ chapter 16, we shall notice that these last plagues are very specially God’s answer in judgment to the enormous evil which reaches its climax in the beast and his followers. This is mentioned specifically in verses Rev_16:2 , Rev_16:10 , Rev_16:13 , but it is also inferred, we think, in other details that are mentioned. The first plague will affect the more stable and ordered peoples, the masses of whom will have received the mark of the beast. Upon these God puts His... read more

Lange's Commentary on the Holy Scriptures: Critical, Doctrinal and Homiletical - Revelation 16:1-21

SPECIAL DOCTRINO-ETHICAL AND HOMILETICAL NOTES (ADDENDUM)Section ThirteenthEarth-picture of the Seven Vials of Anger, or the End-judgment in its general aspect. (Ch. 16.)General.—The special homiletical treatment of this section is, like that of others, made more difficult by the disagreement of exegeses. According to Hengstenberg, for instance, the earth denotes the earthly-minded; the sea, the sea of nations, the unquiet wicked world (in antithesis to the earthly-minded!); the fountains of... read more

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Revelation 16:10-21

“The War of the Great Day of God” Revelation 16:10-21 All these judgments apparently refer to the destruction of those great systems of falsehood and apostasy which set themselves against the truth and purity of God. The dragon, beast, and false prophet are the devil’s mimicry of the divine Trinity. The dragon corresponds to God the Father in delegating His authority; the beast, like our Lord, is crowned with diadems, Revelation 13:1 ; Revelation 19:12 ; the false prophet directs attention... read more
