Revelation 16:1-7

 WeeKly BooK oF Revelation

      By Necessity Slightly 

             Paraphrased    

1 - Then I heard a loud voice from the temple telling the seven angels, “Go and pour out upon the earth the seven bowls of the wrath of God.”

     [God’s ‘wrath’ — Ps.90:3,5-7 — “You return man to dust and say, ‘Return, oh children of Adam!’ 5 You sweep them away as with a flood. They are like a dream, like grass that is sprouts in the morning, 6 it flourishes and is renewed, and in the evening it fades and withers. 7 For we are brought to an end (entropy - effect from cause) by your anger (cause and effect). By your wrath we are dismayed.] — (Imo, cause and effect.. oR you have to have a mere ant farm. Yes, even in the revelation vision, these seven final ‘plagues’ from the foaming cup of effects, and side effects, of mankind’s own doings. Apocalypse as man done, we have man’s number. We are carbon based which has six protons, six neutrons and six electrons.)

     2 So the first angel went and poured out his bowl upon the earth, and a wound, evil [kakΓ³s - an adjective, and the root of kakΓ­a - inner malice – properly, inwardly foul, rotten, poisoned] and grievous came upon the people who bore the mark of the beast and were worshiping its image. 3 The second angel poured out his bowl into the sea (Mediterranean?) and it became like the blood of a corpse, and every living thing died that was in the sea. (All seas.. would be massive! Which it will be, but that massive? “Seven thunders” all together, Is.24:20.) 4 The third angel poured out his bowl into the rivers [potamos - a river] and upon the springs (of earth) and they became blood (contaminated). 5 And I heard the angel of the waters say, “You are just, O Holy One, who is and who was, for these things you have judged. 6 For THEY have poured out the blood of saints and prophets, and to them you have given [didΓ³mi - to give, lit or fig) blood to drink and worthy they are. (Cause and effect.)

     7 And I heard the altar saying, “Yes, Lord God the Almighty true and just are your judgments!” [Ro.3:4 - “That You (God) may be justified in your words and prevail when You (God) are judged”.]
