In Part 4A, David Rosenthal explains the events of Revelation chapter 8. When the seventh and final seal is opened on the scroll, heaven will be absolutely silent for the space of half an hour. It is the sobering realization in Heaven that God is about to go to war on the earth that will initiate the silence.
In Part 4B, we’ll continue our discussion of the events associated with Revelation chapters 8 and 9 in connection to God’s trumpet judgments. In the previous episode, David Rosenthal explained the significance of the Apostle John’s statement concerning silence in Heaven and compared his words with a prophecy delivered by the Old Testament writer, Zephaniah, in which he clearly linked a future time of silence to the start of God’s Day of the Lord wrath upon the earth.
In episode Part 4C, David Rosenthal wraps up his discussion of the trumpet judgments of Revelation 8 and 9. In the previous episode we looked at the significance of the trumpet in ancient Israel, and two of the major purposes for the blowing of a trumpet. First, the trumpet was used to call God’s people to His presence. And second, it was used to sound a battle alarm when Israel was going to war under God’s direction.
