In context
AI-assisted, sourcedRevelation 11:15-19The seventh trumpet
About Revelation 11John is told to measure the temple, for "the holy city shall they tread under foot forty and two months," and God gives power to "my two witnesses," who prophesy "a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth"; the text says, "These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth." When their testimony is finished the beast from the bottomless pit kills them in "the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified," but "after three days and an half the Spirit of life from God entered into them," and they ascend "to heaven in a cloud." At the seventh trumpet voices in heaven say, "The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever." Revelation 11:1Revelation 11:2Revelation 11:3Revelation 11:4Revelation 11:7Revelation 11:8Revelation 11:11Revelation 11:12Revelation 11:15
Why this verse matters here"The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever." Daniel 7:27 says the kingdom "is an everlasting kingdom." Revelation 11:15Daniel 7:27
