REVELATION—NOTE ON Revelation 8:6 Revelation’s third vision series (with a second interlude in Revelation 10:1) pictures judgments sent from heaven in response to the saints’ prayers. The first four trumpets announce harm on the earth, sea, rivers and springs, and sky. The damage done with the trumpets is limited to “a third.” The “woes” introduced by the last three trumpets are increasingly severe (Revelation 8:13; Revelation 9:12; Revelation 11:14). See chart.
