ヨハネの黙示録 16:16 JC

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Revelation 16:13-16

But the papacy would not yield without a struggle: v. 13. And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon and out of the mouth of the beast and out of the mouth of the false prophet. v. 14. For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty. v. 15. Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth and keepeth his garments,... 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

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Revelation 16:1-21

A condensed and graphic description of the processes of judgment on the rebellious and sinful race follows. Evil has wrought itself out to its most terrible expression, and now it is to be smitten without mercy. Everything opened with a great voice sounding from the temple. Terrible physical suffering follows the pouring out of each of the first four bowls. The fifth angel pours his bowl, and the kingdom of the beast is wrapped in darkness. Notwithstanding the unimaginable terror of their... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Revelation 16:16

Either the devil brought them together, or God by his providence ordered that they should be gathered together, into the place where God designed to destroy them and their armies, for so the word Armageddon signifieth, say some; but others make it to signify the mountain of the gospel, or the mountain of apples, or fruits; but the first etymology in this place seems best. The word doth not signify any particular place; but here is an allusion, as some think, to that Megiddo, mentioned Judges... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Revelation 16:1-21

THE SEVEN VIALS, OR BOWLSCRITICAL AND EXEGETICAL NOTES“THIS chapter describes the pouring out of the seven vials—that is to say, the extremest punishments of God—upon the throne and empire of the beast. Antichrist had promised to mankind a new, golden age under his rule; but he promised without God. Christ now wields His own sceptre, and smites with repeated blows the nations who have been led astray. It is the history of the plagues of Egypt over again. A noisome sore consumes the flesh of the... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Revelation 16:1-21

In the fifteenth chapter of the book of Revelation, we had sort of the introduction to chapter sixteen, as we saw the seven angels in heaven who are given the seven final plagues which complete the judgment of God upon the earth. And these seven angels came out of the temple and they were clothed in pure white linen. And one of the cherubim gave to the angels these vials of wrath to pour out upon the earth. And the temple of God was filled with the smoke from the glory of God and it was closed... read more
