In this Bible study, we looked at the meaning of the twenty four elders, as well as the manifestations of power John saw coming from God's throne. Here are some study questions to help you further reflect on the truths of this passage:

2) What does the storm imagery coming forth from God's throne signify? See also Exodus 19:16; Revelation 8:5, 11:19, 16:18.
3) How should we understand the "seven burning torches of fire, which are the seven spirits of God"? What is this communicating about the Holy Spirit?
4) What is pictured by "the sea of glass" in front of God's throne?
