Introduction
The chronological timing of Revelation 12: Great Wonders in Heaven and Israel, along with Revelation 11: In the Midst of the Tribulation, primarily occurs at approximately the midway point of the Tribulation.
I have no doubt that there are many competing views regarding this chapter, but, in general, there should also be much in agreement. There are also some interesting side issues to consider.
For instance, I know of a few ministries that also study astronomy and believe that the great wonder in Heaven of Revelation 12:1 is an astrological sign and claim that this specific cosmological event has occurred only recently. As astronomy is not my forte, I really do not have an opinion on this one way or the other, or that this celestial possibility may or may not have been the intent (or in addition to the intended intent) of the passage.
Nevertheless, the given imagery in the vision John saw, and the interpretation we will present below, seems to be straightforward in light of other Bible prophecies and revealed human and Israeli history.
Underlined Scripture passages are my own emphasis.
A Panoramic View of Israeli History
As the great wonders in heaven begin to take shape within Revelation 12, we see a panoramic vision of Israeli history, specifically, which will ultimately culminate in the Abomination of Desolation with its ramifications.
As with many prophecies, the imagery of these Great Wonders in Heaven tend to move back and forth through time in which it is imperative that the Bible student attempt to rightly divide and cut straight each prophetic vision.
While the primary interpretation of the first part of the vision seems primarily focused on Israel, there is also a human history component interwoven within, as we shall observe.
“And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars: And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered.” – Revelation 12:1-2
We are introduced to this first great wonder in heaven, and, as with many Bible prophecies, this sign provides a multifaceted, blended prophetic picture.
Here are our interpretive keys for this great wonder in heaven for your consideration.
Interpretive Keys:
Woman = Israel. Eve’s Protoevangelium (Genesis 3:15) and Mary’s physical birth of the Messiah are also in view.
Sun = The Father, as Israel’s Husband and spiritual covering.
Moon = The Holy Spirit, who symbolically reflects the essence of the Father on Earth to His people.
Clothed with the Sun = Israel is clothed with the Father’s love for her.
Moon under her feet = The Holy Spirit, as a member of the triune God, is divinely leading Israel in her prophetic destiny.
Crown of twelve stars = The 12 tribes of Israel.
Child = Messiah Yeshua and/or His representative offspring or seed.
Here is how I see the interpretive keys as described above applied specifically to Israel within the text.
“And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman [Israel] clothed with the sun [the Father], and the moon under her feet [the Holy Spirit reflecting the Father’s love and divinely guiding the prophetic steps of Israel], and upon her head a crown of twelve stars [12 tribes of Israel]: And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered [Israel’s promised Messiah].” – Revelation 12:1-2
As noted above, we should also see within this passage an allusion to Mary receiving “that holy thing” by the Holy Spirit and giving birth to the Messiah (Luke 1:30-35), as well as the promised Protoevangelium in Genesis 3:15 that God made to Eve.
Next, we see “another wonder in heaven” that presents a panoramic view of Satan and his world empires throughout history. These world empires or kingdoms are exclusively those that have played, and will play in the prophetic future, key roles in Israel’s historical existence as a nation.
“And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon [Satan], having seven heads [seven world kingdoms] and ten horns [10 kingdoms that will arise in the future], and seven crowns upon his heads [authority given the seven world kingdoms].” – Revelation 12:3
What is interesting about this verse is that there are no crowns on the 10 horns as there will be in Revelation 13:1 [which signifies their crowning for “one hour with the beast” (Revelation 17:12) and will give their power to the beast (Revelation 17:13) when Antichrist takes total control of the world at the midway point of the Tribulation], yet there are crowns on the seven heads. The 10 Kings represented by the 10 horns, presumably upon the seventh head – the seventh kingdom before Antichrist’s eighth kingdom – will more than likely have their dominions in the first half of the Tribulation. All this indicates to me that the focus of this wonder is on the seven heads and its panoramic view of the seven kingdoms that have and will be prevalent in Israel’s history and future up to this time in the chronological timeline at the midway point of the Tribulation.
In our day, six kingdoms or six heads have passed, and the seventh is still future, with the Antichrist’s Mark of the Beast empire being the eighth, represented by the entire beast itself.
[For more on these seven heads and ten horns, please see Revelation 13 – The Beast.]
It will be Antichrist’s kingdom that purges Israel one last time from her land; a detail that will emerge later in our study of Revelation 12.
This “great wonder in heaven” then shifts to the ancient revolt of Satan [“the great red dragon”] against God as he takes a third of the angels [“the third part of the stars of heaven”] with him in his rebellion and “casts them to Earth,” where they all have been deceiving mankind for approximately 6,000 years.
“And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth:” – Revelation 12:4a
As happens often in prophetic passages, the prophecy then jumps in time to the birth of Messiah Yeshua, with a primary, secondary, and extended application available for consideration to the Bible student.
“… and the dragon [Satan] stood before the woman [Israel] which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child [Messiah] as soon as it was born.” – Revelation 12:4b
Primary Application: Satan inspiring Herod with the killing of children up to two years of age in an attempt to assassinate Messiah, the “king of the Jews.”
Secondary Application: The persecution and attempted extermination of Israel throughout her history.
Extended Application: The persecution of the church.
Ever since Satan encouraged Cain to kill his brother Abel, Satan has been on the warpath to destroy God’s people ever since. Satan was also instigating Christ’s death on the cross, as obviously Satan never considered that the cross was a pivotal element of God’s plan of redemption. This hatred of God and God’s people, as we shall see momentarily, will only increase in intensity and ferocity as Satan realizes that his time is desperately short!
“And she [Israel] brought forth a man child [Jesus Christ], who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child [Messiah Yeshua] was caught up unto God, and to his throne.” – Revelation 12:5
Man Child = Jesus Christ.
Her Child caught up to God and His throne = Jesus’ ascension into heaven, as He was the first fruits (1 Corinthians 15:20-23), as well as an allusion to the rapture of the church (Extended Application). There is also an additional interpretive theory that I will postulate as well (An Additional Alternative Interpretation).
Primary Application: Jesus Christ came into the world as a “suffering servant” (Isaiah 53), sacrificing Himself for the sin of the world on the cross as the Lamb of God. Afterwards, He died, was buried, and rose again.
The Lord, though, was not “caught up” to heaven, as the church will be, but was ascended (Greek 305) or carried up (Greek 399) or received up/taken up (Greek 353, 1889) as He left the earth 40 days after His resurrection (Acts 1:9).
Extended Application: We seem to see an allusion to the rapture of the church.
The Greek word for “caught up” is ἡρπάσθη “hērpasthē” (used only this once) with the root word 726 ἁρπάζω “harpazó” (translated in Latin to “rapturo” for which we get our commonly used word “rapture”) and means, properly, seize by force; snatch up, suddenly and decisively – like someone seizing bounty (spoil, a prize); to take by an open display of force (i.e. not covertly or secretly). From a derivative of haireomai; to seize (in various applications) — catch (away, up), pluck, pull, take (by force).
This is obviously the same word used by Paul when he referred to the rapture of the church:
“Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.” – 1 Thessalonians 4:17
So, there does seem to be a historical allusion to the rapture, which takes place prior to God pouring out His wrath, when John says that the child “was caught up [“harpazó”] unto God, and to his throne.”
[For more on this topic, please see Instantly Changed and Caught Up.]
An Additional Supplementary Interpretation
Upon meditation on this passage, an additional alternative interpretation, that does not supersede the other interpretations above in any way, came to my mind. Here again is the verse, keeping in mind that “caught up” is ἡρπάσθη “hērpasthē” with the root word 726 ἁρπάζω “harpazó,” along with our additional supplementary interpretation, proposed as an alternative prophetic allusion in view.
“And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne.” – Revelation 12:5
In Revelation 14: Tribulation Outline, we observed the following concerning the 144,000 Israeli Witnesses found in Revelation 14:1-5:
The 144,000 Israeli evangelists are comprised of 12,000 virgin men from each of the 12 tribes of Israel (Rev. 7:4-8) and will, no doubt, be present in every nation on earth whose duration of testimony seems to be from the rapture of the church until the midway point of the Tribulation just before the Abomination of Desolation and in simultaneity with the Two Witnesses in Jerusalem…
After their ministry and testimony, they will, it seems, be transported to Jerusalem to meet their awaiting Messiah to take them to heaven, very similar to the rapture of the church. While the church meets the Lord in the air at the rapture, Jesus actually comes to Jerusalem and meets the 144,000 Witnesses, and immediately they are found in heaven “singing a new song before the throne and before the four living beings and the elders.”
Could this male “child” that “was caught up unto God, and to His throne” figuratively represent the translation of The 144,000 Israeli Witnesses around the middle of the Tribulation? Could Enoch’s translation represent the church, and Elijah’s translation represent the 144,000?
Notice what is said of the 144,000 concerning their fate:
“And I looked, and, lo, a Lamb stood on the mount Sion, and with him an hundred forty and four thousand, having his Father’s name written in their foreheads.
“And I heard a voice from heaven, as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of a great thunder: and I heard the voice of harpers harping with their harps: And they sung as it were a new song before the throne, and before the four beasts, and the elders: and no man could learn that song but the hundred and forty and four thousand, which were redeemed from the earth.
“These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are they which follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were redeemed from among men, being the firstfruits unto God and to the Lamb.” – Revelation 14:1-4
[For a chronological breakdown of what transpires in Revelation chapter 14, an extremely important chapter, please see Revelation 14: Tribulation Outline.]
The 144,000 are translated and united with the Lamb, Jesus Christ, on Mount Zion, and the very next thing we are told is that “a voice from heaven” was heard and the 144,000, who “were redeemed from the earth and from among men” and are called the “first fruits unto God and the Lamb,” are suddenly seen in heaven singing a song that only they can sing without ever dying. This sure sounds like a rapture (hence the Greek word “harpazō” for “caught up” in Revelation 12:5, which is also applied to the rapture of the church in 1 Thessalonians 4:17) to me!
Essentially, Jesus will personally lead this contingent, as they will all be “caught up unto God, and to His throne” after their supernatural meeting on Mount Zion, in contrast to the rapture of the church in which those who “are alive and remain shall be caught up together… to meet the Lord in the air” (1 Thessalonians 4:17).
Chronologically, the “rapture” of the 144,000 Israeli Witnesses (along with the death and resurrection of the Two Witnesses) will occur just before the Abomination of Desolation at the midway point of the Tribulation.
Since the 12th chapter of Revelation is dealing primarily with the nation of Israel – her history, her Messiah, Satan’s hatred of her, and his persecution of her after his expulsion from heaven – with events that will occur around the midway point of the Tribulation, I am beginning to see an allusion to this additional alternative interpretation and believe it should at least be considered as viable and in addition to the primary and extended applications presented above.
Notice also that chronologically, in the very next verse of our study in Revelation 12, we have the Abomination of Desolation where those who are able to flee Israel into the wilderness mountains will be supernaturally protected during the Great Tribulation – the last three and one-half years of the Tribulation (1,260 days).
“And the woman [Israel] fled into the wilderness [“a place that lacks population” – Petra/Mt. Seir mountains], where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days [the last half of the Tribulation].” – Revelation 12:6
[For more on the Abomination of Desolation and the dispersion of Israel from her land during the Great Tribulation, please see A Study of Zechariah 14:1-11.]
Satan Cast Out of Heaven
Following John’s witnessing the Great Wonders in Heaven, John sees Satan cast out of heaven.
“And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven. And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.” – Revelation 12:7-9
As we shall see in our concluding verses of Revelation 12, Satan and his host will be cast out and lose their access to heaven most probably toward the middle of the Tribulation, just prior to the killing of the Two Witnesses and the Abomination of Desolation.
Satan and the fallen angels, interestingly enough and Biblically substantiated, have always had access to God and evidently had “their place” in heaven when they assembled together, though they lost their positions and all heavenly authority. One obvious reason for believing this is because we know from the book of Job (Job 1:6, 2:1) and Revelation 12:10, below that Satan has and does now have access to heaven.
“And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night.” – Revelation 12:10
Satan has always been accusing the people of God “before our God day and night,” but when he is finally cast down from heaven, he will not have that opportunity anymore.
Notice also the phrase “accuser of our brethren” which indicates that this is coming from the bride of Christ – either a collective “loud [great] voice” or the voice of one or more of the Elders representing the bride of Christ. Clearly those who give their lives to Christ during the Tribulation are the “brethren” of the bride of Christ; both groups will have come to salvation by “grace through faith” in the finished work of Messiah (Ephesians 2:8-9).
“And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.” – Revelation 12:11
The Hebrew word for “overcame” is 3528 ἐνίκησαν “enikēsan” – from “nikaō” – which occurs only here in Revelation 12:11.
According to Blue Letter Bible, the Hebrew tense for “enikēsan” is aorist, which “is characterized by its emphasis on punctiliar action; that is, the concept of the verb is considered without regard for past, present, or future time. There is no direct or clear English equivalent for this tense, though it is generally rendered as a simple past tense in most translations.”
In our passage, therefore, I would recommend an alternative aorist tense of “overcome,” instead of “overcame,” because this statement is coming from heaven within the context of time as Satan is thrown down to Earth to focus exclusively on those inhabitants upon Earth.
In context with the following verse, and as we discovered in Revelation 11: In the Midst of the Tribulation, Satan will be cast out of his access to heaven towards the middle of the Tribulation. Therefore, these that “overcame (or “overcome”) [Satan] by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and loved not their lives unto the death” would be those who are alive on Earth at this time and have or will accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior in the last half of the Tribulation.
All in all, however, it should also be noted that Christian martyrs in every generation have “overcame (or “overcome”) [Satan] by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and loved not their lives unto the death” – including those who have died in the first half of the Tribulation – and this may help to explain the aorist tense of this statement from heaven, representing both those who have already overcome and are already safe in heaven as well as to those alive on Earth who will overcome from this time forward.
“Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.” – Revelation 12:12
Here is yet another reason to believe that this occurs toward the midway point of the Tribulation as the wrath of Satan and the final Vial Judgments, as detailed in Revelation 16, will do extreme damage and destruction to all “the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea,” and Satan, since he is cast out of heaven and down to Earth, “knoweth that he hath but a short time” in the Great Tribulation.
Our next verse is the concluding reason for confirming the idea that Satan will be expelled from his access to heaven toward the midway point of the Tribulation.
“And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman [Israel] which brought forth the man child [Jesus Christ]. And to the woman [Israel] were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.” – Revelation 12:13-14
Here, again, is the flight of Israel to the wilderness mountains that we saw in Revelation 12:6, immediately following the Abomination of Desolation.
“When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:) Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains:” – Matthew 24:15-16
“… the woman [Israel] were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place…”
“Ye have seen what I did unto the Egyptians, and how I bare you on eagles’ wings, and brought you unto myself.” – Exodus 19:4
Just as God did in the Exodus from Egypt, so He will do again – albeit in a unique way – at the midway point of the Tribulation.
The place that He provides for Israel as they escape Antichrist’s Abomination of Desolation appears to be very similar to how God describes the nation of Edom (at times, Moab also had claim to this area) and their hallowed impregnable fortress of high rocky cliffs, some of which eventually became Petra …
“The pride of thine heart hath deceived thee, thou that dwellest in the clefts of the rock, whose habitation is high; that saith in his heart, Who shall bring me down to the ground? Though thou exalt thyself as the eagle, and though thou set thy nest among the stars, thence will I bring thee down, saith the Lord.” – Obadiah 1:3-4
“… where she [Israel] is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.”
Israel will be “nourished” or fed for the duration of the Great Tribulation [times, and times, and half a time (Revelation 12:14) or “a thousand two hundred and threescore days” (Revelation 12:6)], supernaturally protected “from the face of the serpent.”
“And the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the woman [fleeing Israel], that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood. And the earth helped the woman [fleeing Israel], and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the flood which the dragon cast out of his mouth.
“And the dragon was wroth with the woman [Israel], and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.” – Revelation 12:15-17
The phrase that “the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed…” should bring to remembrance God’s Protoevangelium:
“And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.” – Genesis 3:15
However, “the woman” is prophetic Israel, and “the remnant of her seed” is believing Israelites and Gentiles who have come to Messiah Yeshua and “keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.” Both groups – remnant Israel who will come to Messiah Yeshua during the Great Tribulation, as all of Israel will be saved, and believing Gentiles, collectively making up the Great Tribulation Saints – are “the remnant of her seed” and Satan, through Antichrist, will “make war” against them all in an attempt to annihilate the people of God.
In Revelation 11: In the Midst of the Tribulation, I made the following possible connection between Revelation 12:15-17 and Revelation 11:12-13 and provided the following theory that I shared with the reader.
“And they heard a great voice from heaven saying unto them, Come up hither. And they [The Two Witnesses] ascended up to heaven in a cloud; and their enemies [The Antichrist, his UN forces, and the people from many other nations already living in Jerusalem] beheld them. And the same hour was there a great earthquake, and the tenth part of the city fell, and in the earthquake were slain of men seven thousand: and the remnant were affrighted, and gave glory to the God of heaven [the remnant of frightened fleeing Israelites that would witness this event as they were escaping to the mountain wilderness following the Abomination of Desolation].” – Revelation 11:12-13
This fear from the fleeing Israelite “remnant,” following the Abomination of Desolation, would be quite understandable, and they would certainly give “glory to the God of heaven” as they would all recognize at this time that they were deceived by Antichrist, and Yeshua was truly their once rejected Messiah!
It appears that the Antichrist’s UN forces will attack Jerusalem the same day that the Two Witnesses are resurrected. This attack, of course, would be subsequent to Antichrist going into the Temple, a few days after he kills the Two Witnesses, declares himself God, and sets up his image as he commits the Abomination of Desolation.
No doubt confusion will reign supreme, and many events will take place in those three and one-half days, including – but not limited to – Antichrist’s killing of the Two Witnesses, the celebration of the world because of the deaths of the Two Witnesses, celebrating Antichrist for defeating the Two Witnesses (probably with a parade and a magnificent speech), media interviews, visiting delegations of leaders from other nations, televising the Antichrist going into the Temple with pomp and circumstance along with the events that will inaugurate his newfound world-wide reign as the new and undisputed leader of the world, and then Antichrist will commit the Abomination of Desolation on that third and a half day when the Two Witnesses are “resurrected” and taken to heaven.
As the remnant of Israel is discovering that their “Messiah” is not the man they thought him to be, Israel will have no choice but to flee into the wilderness as the Antichrist forces begin to attack the Israelites in the city [A Study of Zechariah 14:1-11]. And as she flees, the UN forces will naturally pursue her. This will be at “the same hour” the Two Witnesses are resurrected and called up to heaven.
Then we read, concerning the earthquake, that “the tenth part of the city fell, and in the earthquake were slain of men seven thousand” (Revelation 11:13).
The Greek word for “fell” is 4098 πίπτω “piptō” and its fundamental definition is to descend from a higher place to a lower.
I am going to try and link Revelation 11:13 to Revelation 12:13-17 and highlight verse 16, which reads:
“And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman which brought forth the man child. And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.
“And the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood. And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the flood which the dragon cast out of his mouth.
“And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.” – Revelation 12:13-17
When Satan is thrown out of his access to heaven and cast to earth towards the midway point of the Tribulation, the focus of his wrath is on Israel as he more than likely takes possession of the Antichrist at this point. This should happen just before the Antichrist kills the Two Witnesses and ultimately commits the Abomination of Desolation and begins his assault through his UN forces on the Israelites in Jerusalem.
The “flood” in Revelation 12 seems to equate with the UN forces that will rape, kill, and then pursue the remnant of Israel as they are in the process of escaping the holy city. As the Two Witnesses are resurrected and taken up into heaven and the UN forces are beginning their pursuit of Israel, the earthquake hits, and the 10th part of Jerusalem, splitting up the earth and forming a long cavern – probably on the east/southeast side toward the Valley of Jehoshaphat – that will swallow up the 7,000 men pursuing them. I suspect the earth will then close upon those 7,000 men, trapping them and the structures that fell with them within the earth.
This helps to explain why Jesus Christ warned the Israelis that:
“When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:) Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains: Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house: Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes.” – Matthew 24:15-18
There is an obvious sense of urgency in Messiah’s Words!
This opening up of the earth harkens back to God’s judgment on Korah, Dathan, and Abiram in Numbers 16 and the deliverance of Israel from the pursuing Egyptians at the Red Sea.
“And it came to pass, as he [Moses] had made an end of speaking all these words, that the ground clave asunder that was under them: And the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed them up, and their houses, and all the men that appertained unto Korah, and all their goods.
“They, and all that appertained to them, went down alive into the pit, and the earth closed upon them: and they perished from among the congregation. And all Israel that were round about them fled at the cry of them: for they said, Lest the earth swallow us up also.” – Numbers 16:31-34
When we consider God’s deliverance of Israel at the Red Sea with the earth swallowing up Satan’s flood in Revelation 12:15-16, one cannot help but see the parallel with the following stanza in the victory song of Moses and Israel:
“Thou stretchedst out thy right hand, the earth swallowed them. Thou in thy mercy hast led forth the people which thou hast redeemed: thou hast guided them in thy strength unto thy holy habitation.” – Exodus 15:12-13
Though the Israeli people will no longer be in their land of Israel for the remainder of the Tribulation – the last three and one-half years or 1,260 days – Satan, through the Antichrist and his forces, will continue to “make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ” through his Mark of The Beast economic and worship system.
That is, until Messiah Yeshua and the armies of heaven – the kingdom of God/kingdom of heaven – come back to destroy the enemies of God, save His remnant of both Israelites and Gentiles who have come to faith in Him, redeem the land of Israel and His holy city of Jerusalem, and begin to set up His glorious Messianic Millennial Kingdom!
I always love a good ending! And that is what God is all about: Very good, exceedingly perfect endings!
