Parashat 55 Portion 9 ‘’Ha azinu’’ Deut 32:28- 47 & Rev 7:1- 8:13

Blessed are You, YHVH our Elohim, King of the universe, who has made us set apart through His commandments and commanded us to engross ourselves in the words of the Torah. Blessed are You, YHVH, Giver of the Torah – Amein.

45(b) Dev 32:28 “For they are a nation lost (lost, perishing away - אֹבַד ) to counsel,

כִּי-גוֹי אֹבַד עֵצוֹת, הֵמָּה

The nation forsakes the divine counsel (Torah, prophets, wise instruction). By doing this, they destroy the very thing that gives them life, direction, and preservation.

Paul speaks of a coming great apostasy (2 Thess. 2), where nations and religious institutions abandon truth and exalt lawlessness. The spirit that resists divine counsel is deeply prophetic:

  • 2 Thessalonians 2:10–11“They refused the love of the truth... for this reason YHVH sends them a strong delusion...”

46And there is no understanding in them. Vs 28

וְאֵין בָּהֶם, תְּבוּנָה Root: בִּין (bin) – to discern, perceive, separate mentally.

46(b) Dev 32:29 “If they were wise, They would understand this, יַשְׂכִּילוּ זֹאת

לוּ חָכְמוּ יַשְׂכִּילוּ זֹאת – a conditional particle, if only לוּ

47. They would consider their latter end!

יָבִינוּ לְאַחֲרִיתָם

47(b) Dev 32:30 “How would one chase a thousand,..

אֵיכָה יִרְדֹּף אֶחָד אֶלֶף

 This is a cry of astonishment, often used in lament (e.g., Lamentations 1:1 begins with Eichah).

 It signals that what follows is unnatural—something that should not happen under normal circumstances.

“One chasing a thousand”

·         A single enemy soldier causes a thousand of Israelites to flee.

·         This is the reverse of what YHVH had promised Israel:

Leviticus 26:8“Five of you shall chase a hundred, and a hundred of you shall chase ten thousand...”
Joshua 23:10“One man of you puts to flight a thousand, because YHVH fights for you.”

Israel’s Defeat is Not Natural – It’s Divine Judgment. 

48And two put ten thousand to flight,

וּשְׁנַיִם יָנִיסוּ רְבָבָה

This reversal of divine favor is so supernaturally extreme that it demands an explanation. And the answer is in the second half of the verse:

“…unless their Rock had sold them, and the LORD had given them up.”

48(b) Unless their Rock had sold them,

אִם־לֹא כִּי־צוּרָם מְכָרָם

This may be the darkest moment in the Song of Mosheh/Moses Deut 32:30 – (in the history of all believers)

Rev 13:7  And it was given to him to fight with the set-apart ones and to overcome them. And authority was given to him over every tribe and tongue and nation. 

Dan 7:21  “I was looking, and this horn was fighting against the set-apart ones, and was prevailing against them, Dan 7:22  until the Ancient of Days came, and right-ruling was given to the set-apart ones of the Most High, and the time came and the set-apart ones took possession of the reign. 

49. And יהוה had given them up?

וַֽיהוָה הִסְגִּירָם And YHVH handed them over / gave them up.” (9th Av)

 Romans 1:24, 26, 28 – “Therefore YHVH gave them up...” — the same spiritual pattern applied to Gentile nations: rejection of truth → handed over to impurity and deception.

49(b) Dev 32:31 “For their rock is not like our Rock –

כִּי לֹא כְצוּרֵנוּ צוּרָם

Even Israel’s enemies recognize the difference— the enemies were shocked that YHVH could hand over Israel to the power of their enemies – if so what could YHVH do to Israel’s enemies?

50 Even our enemies  ôyêb – אויב are judges פְּלִילִים  or intercessors- vs 32

וְאֹיְבֵינוּ, פְּלִילִים

50(b) Deu 32:32 “Their vine גּפן  is of the vine of Seom – vine of them גַּפְנָם

כִּי-מִגֶּפֶן סְדֹם גַּפְנָם

The moral root system ("vine") of the enemy is totally corrupt – yet they are appointed to judge Israel.

51And of the fields of Amorah;

וּמִשַּׁדְמֹת עֲמֹרָה

Moses continues to amplify the enemy’s corruption.

51(b) Their grapes are grapes of gall, - רֹאשׁ poison

עֲנָבֵמוֹ עִנְבֵי־רֹאשׁ

52. Their clusters are bitter.

אַשְׁכְּלֹת מְרֹרֹת לָמוֹ

intensifies the metaphor of moral corruption.

52(b) Dev 32:33 “Their wine is the poison of serpents,

חֲמַת תַּנִּינִם יֵינָם

53. And the fierce venom of cobras.

רֹאשׁ פְּתָנִים אַכְזָר

venom here — something hidden but deadly -

53(b) Dev 32:34 ‘Is it not stored up with Me, YHVH

הֲלוֹא־הוּא כָּמוּס עִמִּי

54.  Sealed up among My treasures?

חָתוּם, בְּאוֹצְרֹתָי

YHVH has an inexhaustible supply of this venom ready to destroy His people.

This judgment was held back vs 32-33 but now it will be released.

54(b) Dev 32:35 ‘Vengeance is Mine, and repayment,

לִי נָקָם וְשִׁלֵּם; - to me is vengeance and restitution

one of the most quoted verses in both Jewish and Christian theology, especially on divine justice and vengeance.

55. At the time their foot slips;

לְעֵת תָּמוּט רַגְלָם

When our ‘’feet begin to slip’’ is the sign that we are not able to stand any longer unless help comes. Judgment is now inevitable; the worst is about to happen.

55(b)  For near is the day of their calamity,

כִּי קָרוֹב יוֹם אֵידָם

אֵידָם (in the sense of bending down); oppression; by implication misfortune, ruin: - calamity, destruction.

56And the matters prepared are hastening to them.

וְחָש עֲתִידֹת לָמוֹ

חָש– quick, hasty, coming swiftly -עֲתִידֹת – future things, what lies ahead -  לָמוֹfor them

56(b) Dev 32:36 “For יהוה rightly rules His people

כִּי יָדִין יְהוָה עַמּוֹ

After the warnings of vengeance (v.35), verse 36 reveals that YHWH’s justice includes compassion, especially when His people are crushed and helpless.

57. And has compassion on His servants,

וְעַל־עֲבָדָיו יִתְנֶחָם

“And will have compassion on His servants”

57(b) When He sees that their power is gone,

כִּי יִרְאֶה כִּי־אָזְלַת יָד

58 . And there is no one remaining, Shut up or at large.

וְאֵפֶס עָצוּר וְעָזוּב

A poetic way to say: Everyone is helpless, no one can help them.

58(b) Dev 32:37 “And He shall say, ‘Where are their mighty ones, (idols)

וְאָמַר, אַיֵּה אֱלֹהֵימוֹ

YHVH speaks in ironic judgment, turning the people's idolatry back on them. After showing mercy in verse 36, He now exposes the futility of trusting false gods during crisis.

59. The rock in whom they sought refuge.

 צוּר חָסָיוּ בוֹ - “The rock in whom they sought refuge”

59(b) Dev 32:38 ‘Who ate the fat of their slaughtering,

אֲשֶׁר חֵלֶב זִבְחֵימוֹ יֹאכֵלוּ

“Where are those gods (idols) you honoured with your offerings? Why aren't they helping now?”

You thought you were honouring YHVH but you were not – you replaced YHVH with your vain imaginations of who He is, was and will be forever and ever.

60. And drank the wine of their drink offering?

יִשְׁתּוּ יֵין נְסִיכָם

Again, sarcastic: If your gods were real, they should have accepted your wine offerings and now be helping to you.

60(b) Let them arise and help you,

יָקוּמוּ וְיַעְזְרֻכֶם

“You worshiped them—now call on them in your time of crisis. Will they answer?”

61. Let it be a hiding-place for you!

יְהִי עֲלֵיכֶם סִתְרָה “Let them be your shelter”

“Let your idols protect you—if they can.”

61(b) Dev 32:39 ‘See now that I, I am He,

רְאוּ עַתָּה כִּי אֲנִי אֲנִי הוּא

“See now that I, I am He, and there is no god besides Me; I put to death and I bring to life, I have wounded and I heal; and there is no one who can deliver out of My hand.”

רְאוּ עַתָּה כִּי אֲנִי אֲנִי הוּא, וְאֵין אֱלֹהִים עִמָּדִי; אֲנִי אָמִית וַאֲחַיֶּה, מָחַצְתִּי וַאֲנִי אֶרְפָּא, וְאֵין מִיָּדִי מַצִּיל׃
Re’u attah ki ani ani hu, v’ein elohim immadi; ani amit va’achayeh, maatzti va’ani erpa, v’ein miyadi matzil.

Deuteronomy 32:39, one of the most powerful declarations of YHVH's absolute sovereignty in the entire Scriptures. After mocking the false gods in verses 37–38, YHVH now speaks with divine authority, asserting that He alone is YHVH, and He alone has power over life, death, and destiny.

 This is the supreme reality in heaven and on earth. YHVH is making Himself perfectly clear to us by stating – ‘’you cannot, you must not ever try to create another version of Me’’

A pivot point in the song — moving from rebuke to the hope of redemption through God's mercy and unmatched authority

62. And there is no Elohim besides Me.

וְאֵין אֱלֹהִים עִמָּדִי

62(b)  I put to death and I make alive.

אֲנִי אָמִית וַאֲחַיֶּה

63. I have wounded, and I heal.

מָחַצְתִּי וַאֲנִי אֶרְפָּא

63(b)  And from My hand no one delivers!

וְאֵין מִיָּדִי מַצִּיל

64. Dev 32:40 ‘For I lift My hand to the heavens,

כִּי אֶשָּׂא אֶל־שָׁמַיִם יָדִי

YHVH makes a solemn, irrevocable oath — lifting His hand to the heavens and swearing by Himself.

64(b) And shall say: As I live forever,

חַי אָנֹכִי לְעֹלָם  “I swear by My own eternal life…”

65. Dev 32:41 If I have sharpened My flashing sword,

אִם-שַׁנּוֹתִי בְּרַק חַרְבִּי

YHVH reveals what follows after His solemn oath in verse 40: the execution of justice. The imagery now shifts to the sharp, flashing sword — a powerful symbol of divine vengeance against His enemies.

65(b) And My hand takes hold on judgment,

וְתֹאחֵז בְּמִשְׁפָּט יָדִי

An upraised hand with a sword (repeated twice) in it speaks of an eminent, severe and total judgment.

66.  I shall return vengeance to My enemies,

אָשִׁיב נְקָם לְצָרָי - “I will repay vengeance to My adversaries”

66(b)  And repay those who hate Me.

וְלִמְשַׂנְאַי אֲשַׁלֵּם - “And I will repay those who hate Me”

How does one hate YHVH? - Rom 8:7  Because the mind of the flesh is enmity (Gk-hatred) towards Elohim, for it does not subject itself to the Torah of Elohim, neither indeed is it able, Rom 8:8  and those who are in the flesh are unable to please Elohim. 

67. Dev 32:42  I make My arrows drunk with blood,

אַשְׁכִּיר חִצַּי מִדָּם

When YHVH’s arrows drink so much blood, they’re drunk with it. It's a metaphor for the complete defeat of His enemies.

67(b)  And My sword devours flesh,

וְחַרְבִּי תֹּאכַל בָּשָׂר

68.  With the blood of the slain and the captives,

מִדַּם חָלָל וְשִׁבְיָה

68(b)  From the long-haired enemy chiefs.

 מֵרֹאשׁ פַּרְעוֹת אוֹיֵב

even the highest-ranking enemies are struck down

69. Deu 32:43  “O nations, acclaim His people *****

הַרְנִינוּ גוֹיִם עַמּוֹ Shout out for joy הַרְנִינוּ the nations of Him

Should read “Let all the messengers of Elohim do reverence to Him.”

In  Heb 1:6  And when He again brings the first-born into the world, He says, “Let all the messengers of Elohim do reverence to Him.”

הִשְׁתַּחֲווּ-לוֹ,    כָּל-אֱלֹהִים. Heb 1:6  bow down (worship) to Him (Yahshua) all you Elohim.

“Let all the messengers of Elohim do reverence to Him.” is not found in the Masoretic text (500CE).

Explanation:

4 Q is a reference to the Dead Sea Scroll which shows that the Masoretic text which we now use, was tampered with to hide direct references to the Messiah.

69(b) For He avenges נקם  the blood of His servants

כִּי דַם-עֲבָדָיו יִקּוֹם

70. And returns vengeance to His adversaries, צר his oppressors vs 43

 וְנָקָם יָשִׁיב לְצָרָיו

70(b) And shall pardon His land, His people.”

וְכִפֶּר אַדְמָתוֹ עַמּוֹ “And He will atone for His land and His people”

Heb – and a proprietary shelter (כִפֶּר kipper) will be found in the land of His people.

Perhaps referring to the day of Yom Kippur.

This is where the 70 th line of the two columns stop. (Perhaps a reference to a future Yom ha kippurim)

Deu 32:44  Then Mosheh came, with Hoshěa son of Nun, and spoke all the words of this song in the hearing of the people. 

Deu 32:45  And when Mosheh ended speaking all these words to all Yisra’ěl, 

Deu 32:46  he said to them, “Set your heart on all the words with which I warn you today, so that you command your children to guard to do all the Words of this Torah. 

Deu 32:47  “For it is not a worthless Word for you, because it is your life, and by this Word you prolong your days on the soil which you pass over the Yarděn to possess.” 

 

The 144,000 of Israel Sealed

Rev 7:1  And after this I saw four messengers standing at the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, nor on the sea, nor on any tree. 

Rev 7:2  And I saw another messenger coming up from the rising of the sun, holding the seal of the living Elohim. And he cried with a loud voice to the four messengers to whom it was given to harm the earth and the sea, 

Rev 7:3  saying, “Do not harm the earth, nor the sea, nor the trees until we have sealed the servants of our Elohim upon their foreheads.”[a] Footnote: aSee Rev_9:4, Rev_14:1, Rev_22:4

Rev 7:4  And I heard the number of those who were sealed, one hundred and forty-four thousand, sealed out of all the tribes of the children of Yisra’ěl

8/01/2025

Parashat 55 Portion 8 ‘’Ha azinu’’ Deut 32:16-28 & Rev 6:1-17

Blessed are You, YHVH our Elohim, King of the universe, who has made us set apart through His commandments and commanded us to engross ourselves in the words of the Torah. Blessed are You, YHVH, Giver of the Torah – Amein.

Summary Song of Mosheh/Moses:

Line 1 – Moses calls Heaven and earth witness to the truth of the Song of Moses.

Line 2 – This truth was YHVH’s Torah, sown and nourished in the hearts of His people.

Line 3 – Fallen Elohim (false mighty ones)  also sowed their religious seeds opposing the Torah, in men’s hearts.

Line 4 – Our only hope against this religious ‘’mixed seed’’ was by calling on the name of YHVH.

Line 5 – YHVH appointed Messiah to restore truth in the midst of this religious corruption

Line 6 – Messiah is the only man who was morally upright and righteous to achieve this task.

Line 7 - Messiah achieved this task by taking our corruption upon himself.

Line 8 – In spite of Messiah’s great sacrifice for us, we treated him badly

Line 9 – This was the price He was willing to pay for our restoration.

Line 10 – From ancient times this was always YHVH’s plan to redeem us.

Line 11 – Our wise prophets and elders confirmed to us that this was His plan to restore us.

Line 12 – When this corruption entered, mankind got divided into nations.

Line 13 – YHVH portioned these nations to be controlled by various elohim or mighty ones

Line 14- YHVH separated Israel for Himself.

Line 15 – Israel was birthed as a nation in a barren wilderness.

Line 16 – YHVH embraced Israel as they were precious in His sight.

Line 17 – YHVH’s presence hovered over them, and He guarded them.

Line 18 – YHVH carried them on His Wings through the wilderness.

Line 19 – YHVH alone cared for them and guided them.

Line 20- YHVH elevated them spiritually and cared for them physically.

Line 21 – YHVH blessed Israel with honey and olive oil in the wilderness.

Line 22- YHVH provided fermented cheese and milk from the flocks.

Line 23 – Also, the finest goats and wheat.

Line 24 – They drank quality wine; however, some of His favoured people became ungrateful.

Line 25 – These ungrateful people became more appalling to Him and He forsook them.

Line 26 – Israel scorned His kindness and provoked Him with strange matters.

Line 27 – They provoked Him with disgusting things even offering sacrifices to demons.

 

24. And you drank wine, the blood of the grapes. (vs14)

וְדַם-עֵנָב, תִּשְׁתֶּה-חָמֶר

Deuteronomy 32:14 -15 marks a dramatic turning point in the Song of Moses. It shifts the tone from YHVH's goodness and care to judgment because of Israel’s rebellion, corruption, idolatry, and resulting judgment.

The puzzle of the Song of Moses is now becoming clearer. As we approach the last days there seems to be three distinct groups:

a)        Those who escape the great tribulation in the wilderness – a very small remnant.

b)       The masses who enter the great tribulation that need to repent –

c)   The masses who enter and refuse to repent.

 

24 (b) Dev 32:15 “But Yeshurun (His chosen ones) grew fat and kicked; (rebelled)

וַיִּשְׁמַן יְשֻׁרוּן וַיִּבְעָט,

It is this ungrateful spirit, not recognizing our spiritual condition, that may well cause the separation between sheep and sheep in YHVH’s end time flock. Ez 34:17

A poetic name for Israel, used only four times (Deut 32:15, 33:5, 33:26; Isa 44:2). Even in the great tribulation YHVH still loves His people.

25. thou didst wax fat, thou didst grow thick, thou didst become gross

.שָׁמַנְתָּ עָבִיתָ כָּשִׂיתָ; fat overweight and gross – a disgusting state.

"Growing fat" not a blessing but a warning — Israel(believers) have been blessed richly, but instead of responding with gratitude, they become spiritually indifferent and rebellious.

Together, they portray a picture of self-indulgence, spiritual dullness, and moral decline. "Thick" here likely refers not just to body but to a hardened or insensitive spiritual state — echoing the idea of a "fat heart" that no longer feels or responds (cf. Isaiah 6:10).

Isa 6:10  “Make the heart of this people fat, and their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and shall turn and be healed.” 

25(b) So he forsook Eloah who made him,

 וַיִּטֹּשׁ אֱלוֹהַּ עָשָׂהוּ

He abandoned Elohim who made him.

26.And scorned the Rock of his deliverance – or he disgraced the rock of his ‘yeshuato’

וַיְנַבֵּל צוּר יְשֻׁעָתוֹ.

Heb. “va yin a bel” to treat with contempt.

26(b) Dev 32:16 “They moved Him to jealousy with foreign matters,

יַקְנִאֻהוּ, בְּזָרִים;  

27.With abominations they provoked Him.     

בְּתוֹעֵבֹת, יַכְעִיסֻהוּ

תּועבה - disgusting things

27(b)Dev 32:17 “They slaughtered to demons – not Eloah 

יִזְבְּחוּ, לַשֵּׁדִים לֹא אֱלֹהַּ

The deceived ‘’Yeshrun’’ continued their path of spiritual destruction, convinced they were worshipping YHVH, when in fact they were worshipping demons – the height of deception.

28. Mighty ones they did not know,

אֱלֹהִים, לֹא יְדָעוּם;

28(b) New ones who came lately,

אֱלֹהִים, לֹא יְדָעוּם

New חֲדָשִׁים  demonic strongholds – pleasure, prosperity and perverted spirituality.

29.Which your fathers did not fear.

לֹא שְׂעָרוּם אֲבֹתֵיכֶם – they were not horrified שְׂעָרוּם  by them.

*29(b) Dev 32:18 “You neglected the Rock who brought you forth.

 צוּר יְלָדְךָ, תֶּשִׁי

Now this song has been sung to those who neglected and rejected the ‘’true’’ Messiah.

“Tzur yaladecha teshi” the rock which birthed, you neglected or “Teshi”(with a dimished yud)

See chumash p 1104 the fifth line from the top. This word has been emphasized and it has a yud which is half way down from its normal position. Why? Is it speaking of Messiah?

30. And forgot  (shâkach) the Ěl who fathered  חיל you

וַתִּשְׁכַּח, אֵל מְחֹלְלֶךָ

“And you forgot (שָׁכַח) the El who fathered you with strength (חִיל)”

While חִיל (chiyl) usually means strength, might, or even birth pangs, in this poetic context, it's tied to birthing or generating

30(b) Dev 32:19 “And יהוה saw, and he was despised, ‘’nâ'ats’’ –

 וַיַּרְא יְהוָה, וַיִּנְאָץ

31Because of the provocation of His sons and His daughters.

מִכַּעַס בָּנָיו, וּבְנֹתָיו

His own sons and daughters have provoked and vexed  כַּעַשׂ Him.

31(b) Dev 32:20 “And He said, ‘Let Me hide סָתַר  My face from them, סָתַר – future tense cohortative verb to emphasize the verb.

וַיֹּאמֶר, אַסְתִּירָה פָנַי מֵהֶם

Isa 8:17  And I shall wait on יהוה, who hides His face from the house of Ya‛aqo. And I shall look for Him.

32. Let Me see what their (latter)end is,

אֶרְאֶה, מָה אַחֲרִיתָם

32(b) For they are a perverse generation,

דוֹר תַּהְפֻּכֹת הֵמָּה

Hebrew – “they turn things upside down” – תַּהְפֻּכָה – overturn or pervert

 33. Children in whom there is no trusting. (faithfulness)

בָּנִים לֹא-אֵמֻן בָּם.

*33(b) Dev 32:21 “They made Me jealous by what is not Ěl,

הֵם קִנְאוּנִי בְלֹא-אֵל

Note “El” also has a “tittel” in the scroll.

In the Torah sefer this “El” has a tittel over it ie  Moshe is drawing our attention to a hidden meaning – This Elohim was not Him. Could this be a possible reference to ‘’Jesus worship, instead of YHVH worship’’?

34. They provoked Me with their worthless matters.

כִּעֲסוּנִי בְּהַבְלֵיהֶם

Religious men provoked YHVH with their emptiness.

34(b) הֵם קִנְאוּנִי בְלֹא-אֵל, They have roused Me to jealousy with a no-god – the idolatry and disrespect for YHVH just continued.

35. I provoke them with a foolish nation -

בְּגוֹי נָבָל אַכְעִיסֵם

Rom 11:14  if somehow I might provoke to jealousy Deu_32:21 those who are my flesh and save some of them. 

35(b) Dev 32:22 “For a fire was kindled in My wrath

כִּי-אֵשׁ קָדְחָה בְאַפִּי

36. And burns to the bottom of She’ol,

וַתִּיקַד עַד-שְׁאוֹל תַּחְתִּית

36(b) And consumes the earth and its increase,

וַתֹּאכַל אֶרֶץ וִיבֻלָהּ

37. And sets on fire the foundations of mountains.

וַתְּלַהֵט מוֹסְדֵי הָרִים

  YHVH’s anger not as emotional outburst, but as righteous, consuming judgment.

A fire that:

  • Burns down to Sheol = total spiritual and physical judgment.
  • Devours earth and produce = economic and ecological collapse.
  • Scorches mountain foundations = cosmic, structural upheaval - nothing is untouched by YHVH’s wrath.

37(b) Deu 32:23 “I gather (accumulate) evils upon them,

אַסְפֶּה עָלֵימוֹ, רָעוֹת

38. I use up My arrows upon them –

חִצַּי, אֲכַלֶּה-בָּם

I will exhaust my arrows in them

YHVH’s judgment and destruction will not stop until every arrogant and disobedient voice is destroyed.

38(b) Dev 32:24 “Wasted by scarcity of food, And consumed by heat and (bitter destruction – in next line)

מְזֵי רָעָב וּלְחֻמֵי רֶשֶׁף

Revelation 6 - The Seven Seals – the first 31/2 years of the final seven years of this age.

Rev 6:1  And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard one of the four living creatures saying, like a sound of thunder, “Come and see.” 

Rev 6:2  And I looked and saw white horse[a a], and he who sat on it holding a bow. And a crown was given to him, and he went out overcoming and to overcome. Footnote: a Zec_6:3

The “bow without arrows” may suggest bloodless conquest, manipulation, diplomacy, propaganda.

Rev 6:7  And when He opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature saying, “Come and see.”

And authority was given to them over a fourth of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and by the beasts of the earth.[h] Footnotes: fTraditionally rendered as pale; Gk.

Rev 6:9  And when He opened the fifth seal, I saw under the slaughter-place the beings of those having been slain for the Word of Elohim and for the witness which they held, 

Rev 6:10  and they cried with a loud voice, saying, “How long, O Master, set-apart and true, until You judge and avenge our blood on those who dwell on the earth?” 

Rev 6:11  And there was given to each one a white robe, and they were told that they should rest a little while longer, until both the number of their fellow servants and their brothers, who would be killed as they were, was completed.

Rev 6:13  And the stars of the heaven fell to the earth, as a fig tree drops its unripe figs, being shaken by a strong wind. 

Rev 6:14  And heaven departed like a scroll being rolled up, and every mountain and island was moved out of its place. 

Rev 6:15  And the sovereigns of the earth, and the great ones, and the rich ones, and the commanders, and the mighty, and every slave and every free one, hid themselves in the caves and in the rocks of the mountains, 

Rev 6:16  and said to the mountains and rocks, “Fall on us and hide us Hos_10:8 from the face of Him sitting on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb, 

Rev 6:17  because the great day of His wrath has come, and who is able to stand?”
