The Seven Last Trumpets

in the 5th and 6th verses; Ezekiel chapter 19, from the 10th to the 13th verses; and Daniel in the 9th chapter, verse 27.

Now, with the help of God, I have wished to bring to light just a little more concerning this silent half hour—how great it is, when it begins and ends, and what it signifies.

The Seven Trumpets.

Now I come to the seven trumpets of God; or also to the seven voices of thunder, which John was commanded to seal up A reference to Revelation 10:4, where the apostle John is told to "seal up what the seven thunders have said and do not write it down." (Chapter 10, verse 4), and which are of the utmost importance in our day. They reach their fulfillment concurrently with the silent half hour, or with the twenty-one years The author interprets the prophetic "half hour" of silence mentioned in Revelation 8:1 as representing a literal period of 21 years in human history.; which is why they are written in the very same chapter. These are nothing but great voices of God calling to us from heaven in these final days, announcing God's great and heavy judgmentsThe original German "Strafgerichte" implies a sentence or punishment carried out by a divine court.. But alas, alas! No one pays any heed, even though we are currently hearing God's great trumpets sounding from Russia, England, France, and the like The author interprets the political and military upheavals in these nations as the literal sounding of the apocalyptic trumpets.. Thus, they will surely come to us as well; therefore, it will not be unhelpful to have some prior knowledge of them.
