Ok, finally Revelation 16 After reading this chapter in its entirety, the 1st time that comes to mind is the event of the plagues set out on Egypt for their hard heart, so our Jesus is going to be gracious to individuals, that decide not to accept His love. The vials refer to the seven trumpets, which represented the rise of antichrist; and the fall of the enemies of the church shall bear some resemblance to their rise.All things throughout their earth, their air, their sea, their rivers, their cities, all are condemned to ruin, all accursed for the wickedness of that people. Again like the Egyptians, the people will continue with their blasphemous ways and nonrepented heart. The devil will try one last fight before the end. This probably shows the destruction of the Turkish power, and of idolatry, and that a way will be made for the return of the Jews. Or, take it for Rome, as mystical Babylon, the name of Babylon being put for Rome, which was meant, but was not then to be directly named. Rome is being destroyed. Still there is no repentance, just like the Egyptians, but God is merciful! REPENT! THE LORD IS NEAR!
