This may be a representation of the Lord's fiery judgment against his adversaries. (Psalms 97:1-3; 2 Thessalonians 1:7-9) Coffman suggests Christ and his Word are the spiritual light of men as the sun is the physical light of the world. "When that which should be light is so polluted that it will only scorch and burn with fire, then the bowl of the wrath of God has been poured upon the son." Instead of repenting and giving God the glory, those scorched speak against God's name. How tragic the depths of sin can be. (Hebrews 6:4-6; Hebrews 10:26-31) The fourth trumpet darkened the sun and moon. (Revelation 8:12)
