2 | what is the seven seal | Rev 8:1 | Searcher56 | 149177 | ||
lok jit, greetings, When the seventh seal was opened, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour. Rev 8:2 And I saw the seven angels who stand before God, and seven trumpets were given to them. Rev 8:3 Another angel came and stood at the altar, holding a golden censer; and much incense was given to him, so that he might add it to the prayers of all the saints on the golden altar which was before the throne. Rev 8:4 And the smoke of the incense, with the prayers of the saints, went up before God out of the angel's hand. Rev 8:5 Then the angel took the censer and filled it with the fire of the altar, and threw it to the earth; and there followed peals of thunder and sounds and flashes of lightning and an earthquake. Rev 8:6 And the seven angels who had the seven trumpets prepared themselves to sound them. ... the verses that follow tell about the seven trumpets Searcher |

Searcher - what do you make of the "silence"? Who has been silenced? Has the praise and worship of God ceased? If so, what might God's reaction be to the cessation of worship? mommapbs |

I have been taught that this is when Jesus according to Matt 15:31, Mark 8:38 and Luke 9:26 returns with all the holy angels. Everyone is with Him, so no one is in Heaven for that time, and that is why there is silence in Heaven. You will note that after this the judgements begin. This could be referring to the rapture of the church just before God's wrath is poured out on the earth since Jesus returns in a cloud. See Luke 21:27 Cloud represents angels or group. i.e. cloud of witnesses in Heb 12:1 But it could also mean that everyone is just being quiet and observing what the angels are doing with the incense and prayers because this is such an awesome moment in that it begins the judgements. Hope this helps. | ||||||
