Revelation 9<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Revelation 9:1, A star fall from heaven.<\/em> <\/strong>Likely this is referring to Satan when he is finally, once and for all, cast out of heaven. Yeshua spoke of this in Luke 10:18 when he likens Satan\u2019s fall from heaven to a streak of lightening or a shooting star coming out of heaven.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Key to the bottomless pit.<\/em><\/strong> In the end times just prior to the second coming of Yeshua the Messiah, Elohim will give Satan the freedom to release evil spirits imprisoned in the abyss who will go forth to torment men as part of YHVH\u2019s wrath against rebellious men. Perhaps this relates to the perennially enigmatic and troubling passage found in Jude 6 (cp. 1 Pet 3:18\u201320; 2 Pet 2:4). It seems that the evil, locust-like spirits may be the fallen angels that either rebelled with Lucifer and or were the ones who interacted with humans in the antediluvian world (Gen 6:4\u20136; Jude 6; 1 Pet 3:18\u201320; 2 Pet 2:4).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Revelation 9:1, Bottomless pit.<\/em> <\/strong>(See notes at Deut 32:22; 2 Pet 2:4.) This Greek term (abussos phrear<\/em>) indicates a large, cavernous hole, pit or abyss with a small opening or orifice like a well and is found several other places in the book of Revelation (Rev 9:2, 11; 11:7; 17:8; 20:1, 3). The bottomless pit is analogous to the deepest sheol<\/em> in the Tanakh (Deut 32:22; Ps 86:13; Isa 14:15) or tartaroo <\/em>(2 Pet 2:4), and is the place where the angels who rebelled in the time of Satan\u2019s rebellion are being held in chains of restraint awaiting their judgment day (see 2 Pet 2:4). This is also where Satan will be cast at the beginning of the Millennium (Rev 20:1\u20133), and is to be distinguished from the lake of fire where Satan (and presumably his demons) will be cast at the end of the Millennium to be tormented forever (Rev 20:10).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This passage indicates that YHVH will open the bottomless pit and allow the evil spirits imprisoned therein to torment men for a period of time as part of his judgments against wicked men.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Revelation 9:2, Smoke.<\/em> <\/strong>Wherever this pit is, it appears to be a place of fire, heat and smoke. The opening of the pit by Satan first releases so much smoke that it darkens the sun and air, if the terminology here is to be taken literally rather than figuratively. If the latter, then the smoke reference could refer to the global spiritual obfuscation that will occur. This phenomenon is the first sign that the demons of the pit are about to be released. After this follows their release and their tormenting of unredeemed humans. This is the wrath of Satan against humanity that precedes the wrath of Elohim. Since Elohim is permitting these demons to torment humans, it is, in reality, an extension of his judgment or wrath against the wicked. Since unsaved humans have rejected Elohim, and more and more are becoming enamored with and turning to outright Satan worship, Elohim his turning them over to the powerful forces of darkness they are seeking over him. These humans will discover what it is like to live in a hellish world where those they wish to serve have full reign to torment them\u2014a world devoid of the protective grace of a merciful Creator. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Revelation 9:3, Locusts.<\/em> <\/strong>These locusts do not fit the description of the Joel 1 locusts, which destroy all vegetation. Perhaps the vegetation of Joel 1 is a symbolic metaphor. If so, then is the vegetation of Rev 9:3 also symbolic? If so, how do we still reconcile these two passages, since the symbolic analogy of the one would be opposite the other?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These locusts are likely hybridized theriomorphic or animal-shaped descriptions of demonic spirits that have been released from the abyss where they have been kept imprisoned since their rebellion (see 1 Pet 3:19; 2 Pet 2:4), but who will be released to torment rebellious men as part of Elohim\u2019s end time judgments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Revelation 9:3, Power.<\/em> <\/strong>(Gr. exousia<\/em>) These scorpion, humanoid demons have the divine permission, physical and mental power, the authority and right, the ability and strength to torment unredeemed men.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Revelation 9:4, Those men\u2026seal of Elohim.<\/em> <\/strong>This is yet another proof that YHVH\u2019s saints are on the earth during this period (the first half) of the wrath of Elohim, and that the pre-tribulation rapture theory is an unbiblical concept. What is the seal of Elohim? If we let Scripture interpret Scripture, this seems to be a reference to the sealing of the Set-Apart Spirit of the saints (e.g. John 6:27; Rom 4:11; 2 Cor 1:22; Eph 1:13; 4:30; 2 Tim 2:19 cp. Rev 7:3).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Revelation 9:5, Not kill\u2026tormented.<\/em> <\/strong>Torment<\/em> (Gr. basanizo<\/em>) means \u201cto test the quality of a metal; to question by applying torture; to vex with grievous pains (of body or mind), to torment; to be harassed, distressed.\u201d The demon-locust humanoid creatures can torment and torture unsaved humans, but not kill them. Those who have the seal of Elohim on their foreheads will be untouched. It seems that this will be an amazing opportunity for the sealed saints to evangelize the spiritually lost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Scorpion. <\/em><\/strong>A scorpion can be a biblical idiomatic metaphor for a demonic spirits over which Yeshua gave his disciples authority to trample on as well as other all the powers of Satan (Luke 10:19).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Torment of a scorpion. <\/em><\/strong>The symptoms of most scorpions stings are relatively harmless, but the bark scorpion (Centruroides sculpturatus<\/em>, also known as C. exilicauda<\/em>), found in the American southwest, is an exception. This species of scorpion is venomous and can cause more serious injury and illness. Initial symptoms include immediate pain and sometimes numbness or tingling in the region stung. Serious symptoms, most common among children, include restlessness, muscle spasms, abnormal and random head, neck, and eye movements, anxiety and agitation, sialorrhea and diaphoresis. In some cases, a scorpion bite can prove fatal for children. In adults, tachycardia, hypertension, increased respirations, weakness, muscle spasms, and fasciculations may predominate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Revelation 9:7, Locusts.<\/em> <\/strong>This is likely some demonic, grotesque gargoyle-like demonic creature (or chimera) that is currently inhabiting the bottomless pit, but that will be released at this time for YHVH\u2019s intended purposes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Revelation 9:21, Sorceries.<\/em> <\/strong>Gr. pharmakeia<\/em>. Pharmakeia<\/em> is a methodology to circumvent Elohim and to open the doorways into the supernatural. It is the mix of science along with magical arts, occultic or hidden, demonic, angelic or paranormal realm and medicine, potions, or herbs for sorcerous reasons to open the mind so that one is in contact with what is beyond the gate or the boundaries YHVH has established between the natural and supernatural (including the demonic) realm. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Satanic spirits in Revelation chapter nine inhabit the pit, and those who resort to pharmakaia<\/em> are coming into contact with spiritual entities either from the pit, or from the realm of darkness beyond this earth. Satan is both the angel of the bottomless pit (Rev 9:11) and the prince of the power of the air (Eph 2:2). There are spiritual gateways or portals down to the pit and out into the universe by which humans can contact beings from other dimensions. There are good and evil portals. YHVH revealed to Jacob a good portal or gateway to heaven at the site of the future Temple Mount when he dreamed of the ladder to heaven (Gen 28:10\u201316). Yeshua is the only gate or doorway to the Father in heaven (John 1:51). But there are evil gateways that men can open up illicitly through pharmakeia<\/em> or drug induced states. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Biblical examples of individuals illicitly opening up gateways into the evil realm beyond man\u2019s perception include the witch of Endor who summoned the dead (1 Sam 28:3ff) or demoms masquerading as dead people. We also see this with the slave girl who was possessed with a spirit of divination and who followed Paul in Macedonia (Acts 16:16\u201318). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Those who come under the influence of pharmakeia<\/em> put themselves into a drug-induced state to activate gateways into the supernatural realm. Doing this is a form of rebellion against YHVH\u2019s established boundaries that man is not supposed to cross. Witchcraft is also taking something holy and exploiting it for personal purposes. This is what Samuel accused Saul of doing when he kept the cattle he was supposed to kill, so that he could, at a later time, offer up an illicit sacrifices without going through the proper Levitical protocols. Samuel equated this act of rebellion with witchcraft (1 Sam 15:23). Saul had this proclivity, for he had offered up a witchcraft sacrifice once before (1 Sam 13:9\u201313). Samuel rebuked him for it, yet Saul was willing knowingly to repeat the same mistake again, which was strictly forbidden. Taking that which YHVH has ordained to be used legally one way and defiantly using it another way for one\u2019s own selfish purposes is an act of rebellion and witchcraft.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Revelation 10<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Revelation 10:1, Mighty angel [or messenger].<\/em> <\/strong>Likely this is Yeshua who is not an angel, but Elohim\u2019s Heavenly Messenger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Revelation 10:2, A little book.<\/em> <\/strong>Likely referring to the book of Revelation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Revelation 10:10, You must prophesy again.<\/em> <\/strong>It appears that the Book of Revelation was written in two parts. Part one was likely written before A.D. 70 when the apostles, based on prophecies in Yeshua\u2019s Olivette discourse, expected the end of the age to occur followed by the second coming. Part two was likely written toward the end of John\u2019s life at the end of the first century. If these conjectures are correct, then Revelation part one ends at the Rev 10:11 and Revelation part two begins at Rev 11:1. Part two is the fulfillment of Yeashua\u2019s prophecy to John that he must prophesy again<\/em>. (For more info on this subject, see Restoring the Original Bible<\/em>, pp. 327\u2013330 by Ernest L. Martin and Beyond Acts<\/em>, pp. 294\u2013299, by Paul R. Finch).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Revelation 11<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Revelation 11:3, One thousand two hundred and sixty days.<\/em> <\/strong>This calculates out to be exactly three-and-one-half years on 360 day year. For a 365.24 day year, this comes out to be 3.45 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Revelation 11:3\u201314, My two witnesses.<\/em> <\/strong>There is much speculation as to who these two witnesses may be. Moses and Elijah seem to be the chief contenders for these two spots in the eyes of most people. However, we might do well to consider also Moses and Aaron as well. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

YHVH Elohim used Moses and Aaron as his proxy to warn Pharaoh and Egypt before bringing his severe and final judgments upon that nation that would end up destroying it. Moses was in the place of Elohim, while Aaron was his prophet or spokesman (Exod 7:1). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whoever the two witnesses will be, in the end times, history will likely repeat itself. YHVH will raise up the two witnesses of Revelation 11 who will, like Moses and Aaron, warn the world to repent just before YHVH pours out his final judgments that will bring down the Babylon the Great new world order system. This will result in redeemed Israel (or the saints) being completely set free from the spiritual \u201cEgypt\u201d of this world setting in motion the final redemption or second exodus of the scattered tribes of Israel back to the land of their inheritance, where they will join their brother Judah who has, to one degree or another, already returned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Revelation 11:3, Sackcloth.<\/em> <\/strong>The Greek word sakkos <\/em>means \u201ca receptacle for holding or carrying various things, as money, food, etc.; a course cloth, a dark course stuff made especially from the hair of animals; a garment of the like material, and clinging to the person like a sack, which was wont to be worn (or drawn over the tunic instead of the cloak or mantle) by mourners, penitents, suppliants and also by those who like the Hebrew prophets, lead an austere life.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Revelation 11:31\u201312:2, The ark of his covenant\u2026woman\u2026being with child.<\/em> <\/strong>As the ark of the covenant was the symbol of YHVH\u2019s presence with his people Israel, which presence left the temple and Israel due to that nation\u2019s apostasy prior to its conquest by Babylon, so the birth of Messiah speaks of YHVH\u2019s glory returning to Israel. This is why John juxtaposes the ark and the birth of the Messiah in these verses. This is why Haggai encouraged the building of the second temple and prophesied,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018and I will shake all nations, and they shall come to the Desire of All Nations, and I will fill this temple with glory,\u2019 says YHVH of hosts.\u2026 The glory of this latter temple shall be greater than the former,\u2019 says YHVH of hosts. \u2018And in this place I will give peace,\u2019 says YHVH of hosts.\u201d (Hag 2:7, 9)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Revelation 11:19\u201312:1\u20132, 4\u20135, The ark of his covenant\u2026her Child.<\/em><\/strong> The juxtapositioning in this passage of the heavenly ark of the covenant and the birth of the Messiah is more than an interesting coincidence as  Micahel Heiser points out. \u201cThe ark was the central symbol of God\u2019s presence with Israel. The birth of the [Messiah] in Rev 12:1\u20137 was John\u2019s way of saying that the presence of God had indeed returned to earth in the form of the Child, the Messiah,\u201d (Reversing Hermon<\/em>, pp. 65\u201366).<\/p>\n
