THOSE WITHOUT THE TEMPLE


Revelation 11:1: “And there was given me” [John] “a reed like unto a rod:” [A measuring instrument] “and the angel stood, saying, Rise, and measure the temple of God, and the altar, and them that worship therein.”


Revelation 11:2: “But the court which is without the temple leave out, and measure it not; for it is given unto the Gentiles: and the holy city" [Jerusalem] "shall they" [The Gentiles/nations] "tread under foot forty and two months.”



THE TWO WITNESSES


Revelation 11:3: “And I” [Christ] “will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth.”

Revelation Chapter 11

Revelation 11:4: “These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth.”


Revelation 11:5: “And if any man will hurt them,” [The Two Witnesses] “fire proceedeth out of their mouth, and devoureth their enemies: and if any man will hurt them, he must in this manner be killed.”


Revelation 11:6: “These” [The Two Witnesses] have power to shut heaven, that it rain not in the days of their prophecy:" [The thousand two hundred and threescore days mentioned in verse 3] "and have power over waters to turn them to blood, and to smite the earth with all plagues, as often as they will.”



THE TWO WITNESSES KILLED


Revelation 11:7: “And when they" [The Two Witnesses] "shall have finished their testimony,” [The end of their appointed time, see Revelation 11:3 and Matthew 24:22] “the BEAST that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit [The BEAST whose deadly wound was healed, see Revelation 17:8, 11] “shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them.” 


Revelation 11:8: “And their" [The Two Witnesses'] "dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city,” [Babylon] “which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified.”


Revelation 11:9: “And they of the people and kindreds and tongues and nations” [The worshippers of the BEAST whose deadly wound was healed, and the False Prophet] “shall see their dead bodies three days and an half, and shall not suffer their dead bodies to be put in graves.”


Revelation 11:10: “And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over them,” [The death of the Two Witnesses] “and make merry, and shall send gifts one to another; because these two prophets tormented them that dwelt on the earth.” See Revelation 11:6.



THE TWO WITNESSES RESURRECTED


Revelation 11:11: “And after three days and an half the Spirit of life from God entered into them,” [The dead bodies of The Two Witnesses] “and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them" [The BEAST whose deadly wound was healed, the False Prophet and their worshippers] "which saw them.”


Revelation 11:12: “And they" [The Two Witnesses] "heard a great voice from heaven saying unto them, Come up hither. And they ascended up to heaven in a cloud; and their enemies” [The BEAST whose deadly wound was healed, False Prophet, and their worshippers] “beheld them.”


Revelation 11:13: “And the same hour was there a great earthquake," [In Babylon] "and the tenth part of the city fell, and in the earthquake were slain of men seven thousand: and the remnant" [The Elect] "were affrighted, and gave glory to the God of heaven.”


Revelation 11:14: “The second WOE" [The Sixth Trumpet/Plague (Revelation 9:13-21 and Revelation 11:7-13)] "is past;” [Completed or finished] “and, behold, the third WOE” [The Seventh Trumpet/Plague] “cometh quickly.”



THE SEVENTH TRUMPET/PLAGUE/THIRD WOE


Revelation 11:15: “And the seventh angel sounded;" [The third WOE, see Revelation 8:13] "and there were great voices in heaven, saying, 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 11:16: “And the four and twenty elders, which sat before God on their seats, fell upon their faces, and worshipped God,”


Revelation 11:17: “Saying, We” [The 24 elders] “give thee thanks, O Lord God Almighty, which art,” [Is] “and wast,” [From the beginning, see 2 Esdras 6:1-6] “and art to come;” [See Revelation 21:1-6] “because thou hast taken to thee thy great power, and hast reigned.” See verse 15.


Revelation 11:18: “And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come,” [See Isaiah 13:13] “and the time of the dead, that they should be judged,” [See Ecclesiastes 3:1, 15-17 and 2 Timothy 4:1] “and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great;” [See Revelation 20:4-6] “and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth.” See Malachi 4:1.


Revelation 11:19: “And the temple of God was opened in heaven, and there was seen in his temple the ark of his testament: and there were lightnings, and voices, and thunderings, and an earthquake, and great hail.”



Message to reader: A Time of Trouble/Day of The Lord

The Great Earthquake signifies the beginning of The Day of the Lord, see Isaiah 13:13. It is also the seventh plague of God. The the sounding of The Seventh Trumpet (Revelation 11:15-19), the pouring of The Seventh Vial, and the plague (The Great Earthquake) that follows is The Sixth Seal. After The Sixth Seal, The Seventh Seal will continue with Christ coming in the clouds of heaven, see Matthew 24:29-30.
