Locusts from the Abyss and the Army of 200 Million | Revelation 9 Explained
From Bible Chapter by Chapter · 00:19:58
Show by Chris Hintsala
The fifth and sixth trumpets sound, unleashing the first two of the three woes—and some of the most intense imagery in the Book of Revelation. From the fallen star opening the pit of the abyss to the locusts with scorpion stings and the 200 million horsemen at the Euphrates, Revelation 9 confronts us with terrifying apocalyptic visions.In this episode, we read these symbols through the apocalyptic lens established in chapter 1, looking at why the locusts and armies aren't literal insects or census numbers, how the Lamb's authority still bounds every judgment, and why the final two verses—“they did not repent”—are the most sobering and important sentences in the entire chapter.0:00 – The Fifth Trumpet and the Abyss (Cold Open)1:36 – Welcome Back & Chapter Overview3:14 – Reading Revelation 9 (WEB)7:01 – Introduction to the Visions7:52 – Section 1: The Star and the Key (vv. 1–2)9:16 – Section 2: The Locusts from the Abyss (vv. 3–11)12:17 – Section 3: The Sixth Trumpet & the Army at the Euphrates (vv. 13–19)14:22 – Section 4: They Did Not Repent (vv. 20–21)16:56 – Closing Prayer17:58 – Final Thoughts19:11 – Looking Ahead to Chapter 10Scripture read from the World English Bible (WEB).Is there something in your own life that has had to happen more than once, or has had to intensify, before you were willing to change?
