THE FIFTH TRUMPET: THE FALLEN STAR OPENS THE ABYSS WHENCE ISSUE LOCUSTS. THE SIXTH TRUMPET. FOUR ANGELS AT THE EUPHRATES LOOSED.

Re 8:13,

"How art thou fallen from heaven, Lucifer, son of the morning!"

以后——希腊文作"这些事以后"。我同意阿福德和德·伯格的看法，认为这些从深渊上来的蝗虫指的是基督第二次再来之前即将临到不敬虔之人身上的审判。那些视其为已经过去的解释，没有一个是令人满意的。

Re 7:1-8
中受印的是以色列人：不是说地上没有别的人被印为蒙拣选的；而是说，审判既限于巴勒斯坦，唯有以色列中受印的需明确地被排除于此灾之外。因此，他在通篇译作"那地"（即以色列和犹大之地），而非"全地"。我倾向于同意他的看法。

12. Greek, "The one woe."
hereafter--Greek, "after these things." I agree with ALFORD and DE BURGH, that these locusts from the abyss refer to judgments about to fall on the ungodly immediately before Christ's second advent. None of the interpretations which regard them as past, are satisfactory.

(Joe 2:11)

Joe 2:18, 31, 32,
also point to the immediately succeeding deliverance of Jerusalem: compare also, the previous last conflict in the valley of Jehoshaphat, and the dwelling of God thenceforth in Zion, blessing Judah. DE BURGH confines the locust judgment to the Israelite land, even as the sealed in
Re 7:1-8
are Israelites: not that there are not others sealed as elect in the earth; but that, the judgment being confined to Palestine, the sealed of Israel alone needed to be expressly excepted from the visitation. Therefore, he translates throughout, "the land" (that is, of Israel and Judah), instead of "the earth." I incline to agree with him.

13. a voice--literally, "one voice."
from--Greek, "out of."
the four horns--A, Vulgate (Amiatinus manuscript), Coptic, and Syriac omit "four." B and CYPRIAN support it. The four horns together gave forth their voice, not diverse, but one. God's revelation (for example, the Gospel), though in its aspects fourfold (four expressing world-wide extension: whence four is the number of the Evangelists), still has but one and the same voice. However, from the parallelism of this sixth trumpet to the fifth seal
(Re 6:9, 10),
the martyrs' cry for the avenging of their blood from the altar reaching its consummation under the sixth seal and sixth trumpet, I prefer understanding this cry from the four corners of the altar to refer to the saints' prayerful cry from the four quarters of the world, incensed by the angel, and ascending to God from the golden altar of incense, and bringing down in consequence fiery judgments. Aleph omits the whole clause, "one from the four horns."

（Re 9:17）。
许多解经家将马军解为身穿朱红、蓝色和黄色（火、风信子色和硫磺色）的土耳其骑兵千军万马，狮子头的马表示他们所向无敌的勇气，口中所出的火和硫磺表示大约在这时传入欧洲、并被土耳其人所使用的大炮和火药；那像蛇一样、有剧毒之刺的尾巴，表示穆罕默德的假宗教取代了基督教，或如艾略特所认为的，是土耳其帕夏的马尾——作为权柄的标志（！）。这一切都很可疑。考虑到这第六号与第六印的平行关系，所论的大概是主再来之前不久发生的事。在我看来，所指的是"那假先知"（如
Isa 9:15

19. their--A, B, C and Aleph read, "the power of the horses."
in their mouth--whence issued the fire, smoke, and brimstone
(Re 9:17).
Many interpreters understand the horsemen to refer to the myriads of Turkish cavalry arrayed in scarlet, blue, and yellow (fire, hyacinth, and brimstone), the lion-headed horses denoting their invincible courage, and the fire and brimstone out of their mouths, the gunpowder and artillery introduced into Europe about this time, and employed by the Turks; the tails, like serpents, having a venomous sting, the false religion of Mohammed supplanting Christianity, or, as ELLIOTT thinks, the Turkish pachas' horse tails, worn as a symbol of authority. (!) All this is very doubtful. Considering the parallelism of this sixth trumpet to the sixth seal, the likelihood is that events are intended immediately preceding the Lord's coming. "The false prophet" (as
Isa 9:15
proves), or second beast, having the horns of a lamb, but speaking as the dragon, who supports by lying miracles the final Antichrist, seems to me to be intended. Mohammed, doubtless, is a forerunner of him, but not the exhaustive fulfiller of the prophecy here: Satan will, probably, towards the end, bring out all the powers of hell for the last conflict (see on
