Resumen del libro de Apocalipsis: un panorama completo animado (parte1)

Literal Sequence of Events

This section discusses how the groups of seven in the book of Revelation represent a linear sequence of events that have happened, are happening, or will happen in the future. The last seven bowls come out of the seventh trumpet and seal, creating a nested structure.

The Symbolism of Groups of Seven

• Each group of seven represents the same period of time between Jesus' resurrection and his future return.

• The Lamb opens the first four seals, which symbolize conquest, famine, and death.

• The fifth seal represents Christian martyrs before God's throne.

• The sixth seal brings God's final response to their cry and describes the great day of the Lord.

• An angel with a seal comes to protect God's servants who endure these difficulties.

• The number sealed is 144,000 from all nations, fulfilling God's promise to Abraham.

Opening the Seventh Seal

This section focuses on opening the seventh and final seal. Before opening it, seven warning trumpets emerge from the altar. These trumpets serve as a call to repentance and judgment.

Trumpets as Warnings

• Fire is taken from the altar and thrown onto Earth, symbolizing martyrdom and judgment.

• John pauses with an interlude where an angel marks God's servants for protection during further hardships.

• The seventh seal is then broken, but before opening it completely, seven warning trumpets emerge.

Trumpet Sounds and Exodus Imagery

In this section, John recounts history using imagery from Exodus. The first five trumpet sounds replicate plagues sent upon Egypt. Despite these warnings, people do not repent.

Replicating Exodus Plagues

• The first five trumpet sounds mirror the plagues sent upon Egypt during the Exodus.

• The sixth trumpet releases four horsemen, similar to the first four seals.

• Despite these plagues, people do not repent, just as Pharaoh did not during the Exodus.

The Scroll of Revelation

This section introduces the scroll without a seal. John is instructed to eat it and proclaim its message to the nations. The content of the scroll reveals how God's kingdom will come to Earth.

Symbolic Actions with the Scroll

• John sees a vision of God's temple and martyrs near an altar, symbolizing protection.

• He is told to measure and separate the temple but exclude the city's courtyards, which will be trampled by nations.

• This may symbolize persecution faced by Jesus' followers but emphasizes their victory through Christ.

• Two witnesses are appointed as representatives of God, likely symbolic of prophetic ministry within the Church.

• A beast appears, reminiscent of Daniel 7, conquering and killing these witnesses.

• However, God resurrects them before their persecutors and many nations finally repent.

Summary and Conclusion

This section reflects on God's warnings through seals and trumpets that failed to generate repentance among nations. It highlights how Jesus' sacrificial love conquers enemies and reveals God's kingdom through his Church.

Reflecting on Warnings

• Seals and trumpets served as warnings from God but did not lead to widespread repentance among nations.

• Jesus' sacrificial love conquered enemies by dying for them rather than killing them.

• The message of the Lamb's scroll is carried out by his army - the Church - who conquer through suffering and testimony.

• The book of Revelation reveals how God's kingdom will be established on Earth.
