CHAP. XVI.
2 and 17 The Angels pour out the seven vials of Gods wrath given unto them, and so diverse plagues arise in the world, 18 to terrify the wicked, 19 and the inhabitants of the great City.
2 and 17 The Angels powre out the seuen vialles of Gods wrath giuen vnto them, and so diuerse plagues arise in the world, 18 to terrifie the wicked, 19 and the inhabitants of the great Citie.
1 12THEN I heard a great voice out of the Temple, saying to the seven Angels, Go your ways, & pour out the seven vials of the wrath of God upon the earth.
1 12THē I heard a great voyce out of the Temple, saying to the seuen Angels, Go your wayes, & powre out the seuen vialles of the wrath of God vpon the earth.
- 1In the former Chapter was set down the preparation unto the work of God: here is delivered the execution thereof. And in this discourse of the execution, is a general commandment, in this verse; then a particular recital in order of the execution done by every of the seven Angels, in the rest of the Chapter. This special execution against Antichrist and his crew, doth in manner agree unto that which was generally done upon the whole world, Chapter 8. and 9. and belongeth (if my conjecture fail me not) unto the same time. Yet herein they do differ one from another, that this was particularly effected upon the Princes and ringleaders of the wickedness of the world; the other generally against the whole world being wicked. And therefore these judgements are figured more grievous then those.
