Subject: Two witnesses of Revelation - prophets? |
Bible Note: Greetings, Listener! Some people believe that Elijah himself will be one of the two witnesses, based on Malachi 3:1; 4:5, Matthew 17:11, his appearance at the Transfiguration of our Lord, and because of the fact that he went to heaven without dying. Some people believe that one of these two witnesses will be Moses, since Moses also took part in the Transfiguration (Matthew 17:3). However, some people believe that one of the witnesses will be Enoch, since Enoch was the only other person, besides Elijah, who was taken directly to heaven without dying. Regardless of who the two witnesses turn out to be, God will use them to prophecy and 'to smite' the earth with plagues (Rev. 11:6). Blessings to you, Makarios |
