If we read this very eleventh Chapter through, we shall see that the falling of the tenth Part of the City, and the Witnesses rising and ascending into Heaven, are entirely distinct from the final Destruction of Antichrist, and that Advancement of the Church to her latter-day Glory, that is consequent upon it. The Judgments here spoken of, as executed on God's Enemies, are under another Woe; and the Benefits bestowed on the Church, are under another Trumpet. For immediately after the Account of the rising and ascending of the Witnesses, and the tenth Part of the City's falling, and the slaying of the seven thousand Men, and the affrighting of the rest, and their giving Glory to the God of Heaven, follow these Words in the 14th and 15th Verses, The second Woe is past; and behold the third Woe cometh quickly. And the seventh Angel sounded; 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. And in the following Verses, we have an Account of the Praises sung to God on this Occasion. And then in the last Verse, we have a brief Hint of that same Earthquake, and that great Hail, and those Thunders and Lightnings and Voices, that we have an Account of in the latter Part of Chap. xvi. So that the Earthquake mentioned in the last Verse of Chap. xi. is that great Earthquake that attends the last great Conflict of the Church and her Enemies; and not that mentioned Ver. 13.
