From the book Reckoning of Time

For a comprehensive study of the Book of Revelation and of this chapter, refer to the article “The Revelation of the Seven Trumpets: The Greatest prophecy Ever Told, Few Can Hear“.

The rulers of Israel make a covenant with death for guaranteed peace (see Appendix D), but soon the covenant will be annulled when an overflowing scourge passes through and in trembling, they understand the message, Isa 28:14-19. The governance permits an altar to be built*. From that moment on until everything is restored will be 2,300 days, Dan 8:13-14. When the construction is finished, the altar is being dedicated for eight days on Sukkot, 2Ch 5:3-7.

And a messenger flying in mid-heaven, holding the everlasting Good News announces to those dwelling on the earth, “Fear Elohim and give esteem to Him, because the hour of His judgment has come. And worship Him who made the heaven and the earth, and sea, and fountains of water.” And another messenger follows, saying, “Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she has made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her whoring.” And a third messenger follows them, saying with a loud voice, “If anyone worships the beast and his image, and receives his mark upon his forehead or upon his hand, he also shall drink of the wine of the wrath of Elohim, which is poured out undiluted into the cup of His wrath. And he shall be tortured with fire and sulphur before the set-apart messengers and before the Lamb. (Rev 14:6-11) And a voice out of the heaven proclaims, “Blessed are the dead who die in the Master from now on.” (Rev 14:13) The coming of the NWO is according to the work of satan, with all power and signs and wonders of falsehood, and with all deceit of unrighteousness. And for this reason, Elohim sends them a delusion, for them to believe the falsehood, in order that all should be judged who did not believe the truth but have delighted in the unrighteousness (2Th 2:9-12, Deu 13:1-3).

The turmoil and the wrath of Elohim are about to begin with the soundings of the seven trumpets².

(Suggested reading of the table of events below: in order to properly understand the sequence of events of the seven seals, seven trumpets, and seven plagues, as the present author sees them, the reader should read them in the fashion as follows: 1st seal is open, 1st trumpet sounds, 1st plague is poured; 2nd seal is opened, 2nd trumpet sounds, 2nd plague is poured, etc.)

For the Master YHVH does no matter unless He reveals His secret to His servants the prophets. (Amo 3:7)

Seven Messengers and Seven Plagues

(From Earth’s perspectives)

Elohim sits on the throne in the heaven and there is a rainbow around the throne, like an emerald in appearance. And around the throne are twenty-four thrones and twenty-four elders sitting on them. And out of the throne come lightnings, thunders, and voices. And seven lamps of fire are burning before the throne, which are the seven Powers of Elohim, Rev 4:3-5. And in the right hand of Him is a scroll, having been sealed with seven seals. Rev 5:1

And the seven messengers with seven trumpets stand before Elohim ready to blow. And the seven messengers who are holding the seven trumpets prepare to sound. Another strong messenger having in his hand a little scroll opened cries out the Seven Thunders sealed and announces the secret of Elohim that shall be ended in the days of the sounding of the seventh messenger: “We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed”, 1Co 15:52, “and the nations shall be co-heirs, united in the same body, and partakers together”, Eph 3:3-6.

And another sign in the heaven, great and marvelous: seven messengers having the seven last plagues, for the wrath of Elohim is ended in them. And another messenger comes holding a golden censer, and much incense is given to him. And the smoke of the incense, with the prayers of the set-apart ones in heaven, goes up from the hand of the messenger. And he takes the censer and fills it with fire from the altar and throws it to the earth. And there are noises, and thunders, and lightnings, and an earthquake. And the Dwelling Place of Elohim in the heaven is opened and out of it come the seven messengers having the seven plagues in golden bowls filled with the wrath of Elohim. No one will be able to enter the Dwelling Place from that moment on until the seven plagues are ended.

1^st: And the Son of Elohim opens the first seal and a white³ horse and he who sits on it is holding a bow. And a crown [authority] is given to him and he goes out to subdue. [Mat 24:5]

1^st: then the first messenger sounds. And the first thunder speaks its words and there is hail and fire mixed with blood [Exo 9:23-26]. They are thrown to the earth and a third of the trees and all green grass are burned up. (Joe 2:30)

1^st: and the first messenger pours out his bowl and evil and wicked sores come on those who have received the mark of the name [the pledge of allegiance] of the world governance, or the number of his name, 666. Exo 9:8-10. In the midst of Purim, the true face of the NWO is revealed when satan through his proxy exalts himself in Yerushalayim above everything and Elohim showing himself that he is mighty, 2Th 2:3-4. Israel rejects him. As a retaliation, the set-apart city is given to the nations to trample it for forty-two months, Rev 11:1-3, Zec 2:1-2. From that time until the end of days [of Sukkot] are 1,290 days, Dan 12:11.

2^nd: And when He opens the second seal, a red horse goes out to take the peace from the earth, and that the people will slay one another. And a great sword is given to him. [Mat_24:6] The third world war is about to begin.

2^nd: the second messenger sounds. And the second thunder speaks its words and what looked like a great mountain burning with fire is thrown into the sea, and a third of the sea becomes blood, and a third of the living creatures in the sea died, and a third of the ships are destroyed.

2^nd: and the second messenger pours out his bowl and the sea becomes blood, as of a dead one, and every living creature in the sea dies. On Rosh HaShanah Elohim sends two witnesses standing before Him [Eliyahu and Enoch] to prophesy 1,260 days⁴. If anyone wishes to harm them, fire comes out and consumes their enemies. They possess authority from now on to shut the heaven, so that no rain falls in the days of their prophecy to turn the waters to blood, and to smite the earth with all plagues, as often as they wish. Rev_11:3-6, Mat_24:14

3^rd: And when He opens the third seal, a black horse and he who sits on it is holding a pair of scales [judgment] in his hand to set the day’s wage [scarcity of food]: a quart of wheat and three quarts of barley and is told not to harm the oil and the wine. Mat_24:7 Exo_9:1-7.

3^rd: the third messenger sounds. And the third thunder speaks its words and a great star, Wormwood⁵, falls from the heaven, burning like a torch, on a third of the rivers and on the springs of water, and many men die from the waters, because they have been made bitter [scarcity of water]. And after the third trumpet sounds, the sun suddenly shines in the night and the moon thrice in the day. And then he, who no one has expected, shall rule. There shall be riots and violence in the world. Fire shall be sent out from heaven, and the wild beasts shall change their places, and menstrual women shall bring forth monsters. Fresh waters shall become salt waters and friends shall be against each other; then wisdom shall cease, 2Es_5:4-9

3^rd: and the third messenger pours out his bowl and the rivers and springs of water become blood⁶ (Exo_7:17-25) and they are given them blood to drink (those who have received the mark or the number of the world governor) because they have shed the blood of the faithful and prophets. The covenant with death which “Babylon” facilitated between the Arabs and Israel is annulled. Israel is blamed for breaking the accords of “Land-for-Peace agreement”. “Babylon” punishes Israel with a military strike. In these days and at that time, all Israel is called to return home, Jer_30:11, Jer_46:28, Jer_50:8, Mic_4:10. The time window of escaping is short between the time of the massacre and the time of utter destruction of “Babylon” (Jer_51:49-51) but the escape is not in haste for Elohim will lead His people and guard them, Isa_52:11-12. See Appendix G.

4^th: And when He opens the fourth seal, a pale horse and he who sits on it has the name Death, to whom is given the authority over a fourth of the earth to kill with sword, hunger, and death, and by the beasts of the earth. And the seasons are shortened and the seed on the fields is tardy. The rain is kept back, and the harvest comes backward and not grows in its time. The moon alters its order and not appears at due time and the sun is seen in the evening in the west shining more brightly. Many major stars alter their orbits and not appear at due time, and this is hidden from the sinners, and they shall be wrong concerning them and take them to be gods, Enoch 80:2-7.

4^th: the fourth messenger sounds. And the fourth thunder speaks its words and a third of the sun, of the moon, and of the stars are struck so that a third of them are darkened. And a third of the day does not shine, and likewise the night. [And there are signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves are roaring, Luk_21:25]. The three woes to those dwelling on the earth are announced in heaven before the remaining trumpets of the last three messengers.

4^th: and the fourth messenger pours out his bowl on the sun causing the solar activities to burn men with fire and men are burned with great heat. The earth is utterly broken, shaken, and staggers. And in that day YHVH punishes on the earth the sovereigns of the earth. And they shall be gathered together and be punished after many days. And the moon will be turning red and the sun dark from that moment on. (Isa_24:19-23) The solar blasts cause the Earth’s magnetic field to wobble and even the poles to disappear or shift. Earthquakes, tsunamis, and droughts take place all over the globe. Nation rises against nation and there are scarcities of food, deadly diseases, and earthquakes in places* (Mat_24:7). (See Appendix L)

5^th: And when He opens the fifth seal, under the altar the souls of those having been slain for the Word of Elohim [the dead waiting to be resurrected at the seventh trumpet], are given to each one a white robe, and the chief messenger Uriel tells them that they will rest until both the number of their fellow servants and their brothers, who will be killed in the tribulation as they were, is completed (2Es_4:35-37). [And there are signs in the heavens and on the earth: blood and fire and columns of smoke, the sun is turned into darkness (total solar eclipse), and the moon into blood (total lunar eclipse)⁷, before the coming of the great and awesome day of Elohim. And everyone who calls on the Name of Elohim will be delivered. For on Mount Tsiyon and in Yerushalayim there will be an escape and among the remnants whom Elohim calls, Joe_2:30-32] And Elohim says to a messenger, “Go through the midst of Yerushalayim on Pesach and set a mark⁸ upon the foreheads of the men that sigh and that cry because of all the abominations that are done.” And to the others, “Go after him through the city, and slay utterly old and young, but come not near any man upon whom is the mark; and begin at my sanctuary, Eze_9:1-6. Because it is time for judgment to begin from the House of Elohim (1Pe 4:17). “Blessed is he who is waiting and comes to the 1,335 days” (Dan_12:11-12, Mat_24:8-26). And after that, four messengers stand at the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth. A messenger comes up from the rising of the sun, holding the seal of Elohim cries to the four messengers to whom it was given to harm the earth and the sea, “Do not harm the earth, or the sea, or the trees until we have sealed the 144,000 from the tribes of Israel.”⁹ (Rev_7:1-4)

5^th, 1^st woe: the fifth messenger sounds. And the fifth thunder speaks its words and a star from the heaven, whose name is Avadu, after he fell on the earth (Eze_28:16; Luk_10:18), opens the pit of the deep out of which smoke goes out. And smoke like of a great furnace goes up out of the pit. And the sun and the air are darkened. And out of the smoke locusts [Amo_7:1-3] come on the earth [Exo_10:13-15] and authority is given to them not to harm the grass of the earth, or any green, or any tree, but to harm for five months [Exo_10:21-23] only those who do not have the seal of Elohim on their foreheads. And their torture was like the torture of a scorpion when it stings a man. And in those days men shall seek death and shall not find it. And they shall long to die, but death shall flee from them. And the locusts¹⁰ looked like horses prepared for battle, and on their heads were crowns like gold, and their faces were like the faces of men. And they had hair like women’s hair, and their teeth were like lions’ teeth. And they had breastplates like breastplates of iron, and the sound of their wings was like the sound of chariots of many horses running into battle (Rev 9:1-9). A messenger flying in mid-heaven announces to the earth, “Fear Elohim and give Him esteem, because the hour of His judgment has come.” And a second messenger followed, saying, “Babylon is fallen.” And a third messenger followed them with a loud voice, “If anyone worships the beast and his image, and receives his mark upon his forehead or upon his hand, shall drink of the wrath of Elohim. Here is the endurance of the set-apart ones guarding the commands of Elohim and the faith of Yeshua. And a voice out of the heaven saying, ‘Blessed are the dead who die in the Master from now on.’ (Rev 14:6-13)

5^th: and the fifth messenger poured out his bowl on the throne of the beast, and his reign became darkened. And they gnawed their tongues from pain and blasphemed the Elohim for their pains and their sores and did not repent of their works (Rev_16:10-11).

When the inhabitants of Yerushalayim see the abomination that lays waste, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, set up in the set-apart place, flee to the mountains on Matzot to a place which will be a safe haven for the next 1,260 days¹² until the end, on Sukkot (Rev_12:6, Mat_24:15-20).

The travail of Israel (Ya’akov’s Trouble) begins. See Appendix F. And immediately after the distress of those days the sun is darkened, and the moon does not give its light, and the stars fall from the heaven, and the powers of the heavens are shaken, Mat_24:29, Isa_13:10. The sun goes down at noon, and darkens the earth on a day of brightness, Amo_8:7-9.

Fire is sent on Moav (Jordan) and it dies amid uproar, with a cry and with the sound of the trumpet, Amo_2:2. In that night the entire Jordan has been laid waste for its arrogance against the building of the altar three years earlier Isa_15:1, Isa_16:6-14 and against the borders of Israel, Zep_2:8-10.

6^th: Then He opens the sixth seal and a second great earthquake came to be. And the sun becomes black (possible total solar eclipse), and the moon becomes as blood (possible total lunar eclipse). And the stars¹⁴ of the heaven fall on the earth and heaven departs like a scroll and all hide themselves in the caves and in the mountains because of the fear of Elohim for His wrath has come in the great day when He arises to shake the earth (Isa_2:19-21). And when the sun and the moon become dark and the stars withdraw their brightness, Elohim gives forth His voice from Yerushalayim and the heavens and earth shake, but He is a refuge for His people (Joe_3:15-16, Mat_24:29).

6^th, 2^nd woe: the sixth messenger sounds. And the sixth thunder speaks its words and a voice from the altar commands the four messengers, who are bound at the great river Euphrates prepared for the hour and day and month and year, to release the two hundred million armies from the East to kill a third of mankind by fire, smoke, and sulphur. And after three and half days, the two prophets are resurrected to heaven in the hour of the great earthquake. A tenth of Yerushalayim falls and seven thousand killed. The second woe is past, and the third woe is coming speedily, Rev_11:3-14. Yerushalayim becomes a threshold of reeling to all the nations when they gather against it in the siege of Israel. And it is throughout all the land that two thirds are cut off and die, and one third is left. And He brings the third into fire and refine them as silver and gold are tried. And they call on His Name, and He answers them, ‘This is My people,’ while they say, ‘YHVH is my Elohim.’ (Zec 13:8-9)

When the Most High begins to deliver the nations to fight each other, then the Messiah is revealed. And when all the people hear his voice, they cease the wars between them and gather together to fight Him. But he shall stand upon the top of the mount Sion. (2Es_13:29-35)

6^th: and the sixth messenger pours out his bowl on the great river Euphrates and its water dries up, in order to prepare the way of the rulers from the east. And the NWO releases three evil resolutions to summon the world leaders to the battle of Armageddon (Joe_3:2, Zep_3:8, Rev_16:12-14). The siege of Yerushalayim begins and nine months later the city is taken, and the women ravished. Half of the city goes into exile, but the remnant of the people are not cut off. In that day the leaders of Israel say in their heart, ‘The inhabitants of Yerushalayim are a strength to me, through YHVH of hosts, their Elohim.’ And He shields them and seek to destroy all the nations. And the inhabitants of Yerushalayim look on the Messiah whom they had pierced, and they mourn for Him greatly (Zec_12:2-11). Then they call on the Name for deliverance. (See Appendix K)

… And after three and half years of witnessing, the two prophets are killed three and half days before the sounding of the seventh trumpet and the 3rd woe (Rev_11:7-14). The final battle for Yerushalayim begins. A Northerner comes up against Israel, strong, and innumerable (see Appendix C). The land is laid waste. The offerings are cut off from the altar. The priests set apart a fast; call an assembly, gather the elders, all the inhabitants of the land, at the altar, and cry out, Joe_1:6-20. All the land shakes at the sound of his strong ones. They devour the land, Yerushalayim and those who dwell in it, the harvest is past, the summer is ended, and they have not been saved, Jer_8:16-20. A coalition of nations invades the land from the far north. And at the time of the great earthquake the mountains are thrown down. They are judged with pestilence and blood, and rain down flooding rain and hailstones, fire and sulphur, Eze_38:3-22. “Babylon” falls for the slain of Israel and for the abomination in the set-apart place. “You who have escaped the sword, go away and let Yerushalayim come to your heart” (Jer_51:49-51, Rev_18:8). See Appendix B.

7^th: And when He opens the seventh seal [the seal of Elohim] there comes to be silence in the heaven for about half an hour for Elohim is coming out of His place and coming down to tread on the earth. Mic_1:3, Isa_26:21, Mat_24:30-31. “I am coming and shall dwell in your midst. Hush, all flesh, before YHVH, for He has roused Himself out of His set-apart dwelling!” (Zec_2:10-13) And on every high mountain there shall be rivers, in the day of great slaughter, when the towers fall. And the light of the moon shall be as the light of the sun, and the light of the sun shall be sevenfold, as the light of seven days, in the day that Elohim binds up the breach of His people and heals the wound of His blows¹⁵. Isa_30:25-26

7^th, 3^rd woe: In the seventh month, on Yom Teruah, the seventh messenger sounds. And the seventh thunder speaks its words and loud voices in the heaven say, “The reign of this world has become the reign of our Master, and of His Messiah”. And the Dwelling Place of Elohim is opened in the heaven, and the Ark of His covenant is seen. And there come to be lightnings, and voices, and thunders, and an earthquake, and great hail. And on a white cloud is the Son of Elohim, having in His hand a sharp sickle,

(1^st sickle: gathering the resurrected). And another messenger comes out of the Dwelling Place, crying with a loud voice to the One sitting on the cloud, “Send Your sickle and reap, because the hour has come for You to reap, because the harvest of the earth is ripe.” He thrusts His sickle on the earth, and the earth is reaped and a great crowd of all nations, in the twinkling of an eye, is standing before the throne dressed in white robes. [He descends from heaven and the dead in Messiah rise first. Those who are alive are caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet Him in the air, 1Th_4:16-17.] And another messenger comes out of the Dwelling Place holding a sharp sickle.

(2^nd sickle: judging the world). And another messenger comes out from the altar, having authority over the fire, and cries to him, “Send your sharp sickle, and gather the clusters of the vine of the earth because her grapes are ripe.” And the messenger thrusts his sickle into the earth and gathers the vine of the earth and throws it into the great winepress of the wrath of Elohim (Joe_3:12-13, Rev_14:14-20). The wrath has come, and the time of the dead to be judged, and to give the reward to the prophets and to the believers, and to those who fear His Name, and to destroy those who destroy the earth.

And the Lamb stands on Mount Tsiyon with 144,000, having His Father’s Name written upon their foreheads, not defiled with women, redeemed from among men, being the first fruits to Elohim and to the Lamb. (Rev_14:1-4)

7^th: and the seventh messenger pours out his bowl into the air and a loud voice come out of the Dwelling Place, “It is done!” And there are noises and thunders, and lightnings, and a third great earthquake never seen since men have been on the earth. And the great city Bavel is divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fall. And every island flees away, and the mountains disappear. And exceedingly great hail from the heaven falls on men. Elohim makes the Mount of Olives split from east to west by a great [third] earthquake causing it to move to north and south. And the inhabitants of Yerushalayim who are still in the city flee into this valley which has been formed by the splitting of the Mount of Olives. And in that day known to YHVH, there is no light, but darkness, neither day nor night, but at evening time there shall be light¹⁶ (Zec_14:1-7). This allows many at the noise of the rumbling, Isa_33:2-3, to use this passage to flee and survive. The earth opens and swallows up the pursuers (Exo_14:19-23, Rev_12:13-17). They have all the night to escape and join the remnant in Moav. The path through the valley reaches a place Atsal in the mountain east of Yerushalayim¹⁷, providing a dry passage through the Plain of Jordan to Moab [destroyed by the earthquake, Isa_15:1-9]. And He leads them in paths they have not known. He makes darkness light before them, and crooked places straight (Isa_42:15-16, Mic_2:12-13, 2Ki_2:1-9). In that day YHVH plagues all the nations: their flesh decays while they stand on their feet, their eyes decay in their sockets, and their tongues decay in their mouths. And a great confusion from YHVH shall be among them. And Israel shall fight at Yerushalayim as well (Zec_14:12-14). And the heaven opens and the armies in the heaven follow Him on white horses, and He treads the winepress of wrath of Elohim. Rev_19:11-16. He sends out of his mouth a blast of fire, a flaming breath, and sparks and storms, all mixed together fall with violence on the multitude which is prepared to fight, and burn them up everyone, so that nothing remain but only dust and smell of smoke, 2Es_13:9-11. The world governor and the co-ruler are seized and thrown alive into the lake of fire and the rest are killed, Rev_19:19-21. And a messenger comes down from the heaven, having the key to the pit of the deep and a great chain in his hand, seizes satan and bound him for a thousand years, Rev_20:1-2.
