| And I heard a great voice out of the temple saying to the seven angels, Go your ways, and pour out the vials of the wrath of God upon the earth. Rev 15:7 And one of the four beasts gave unto the seven angels seven golden vials full of the wrath of God, who liveth for ever and ever.
This corresponds with the Hebrew word for wrath:
There are similar words for anger, and wrath, in both Hebrew and Greek, but, these are specific to the cup of the Lord's indignation. A different word is used in 16:19: Rev 16:19 And the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell: and great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath.
punishment, or plagues, which are the final result of the cup of indignation, flowing over.  The plagues are analogous to the 10 plagues in Exodus 7:11

| And the first went, and poured out his vial upon the earth; and there fell a noisome and grievous sore upon the men which had the mark of the beast, and [upon] them which worshipped his image. Image of the beast: ICON - from the Greek eikon.
This usually refers to Godly icons, particularly Christ. In this passage, icon means the antichrist, the beast, and satan. noisome - 4 references in OT and NT. 3 in OT. 1 in NT. Psa 91:3 Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, [and] from the noisome pestilence. Eze 14:15 If I cause noisome beasts to pass through the land, and they spoil it, so that it be desolate, that no man may pass through because of the beasts: Eze 14:21 For thus saith the Lord GOD; How much more when I send my four sore judgments upon Jerusalem, the sword, and the famine, and the noisome beast, and the pestilence, to cut off from it man and beast?

| And the second angel angel poured out his vial upon the sea; and it became as the blood of a dead [man]: and every living soul died in the sea. Blood-
  Exd 7:20 And Moses and Aaron did so, as the LORD commanded; and he lifted up the rod, and smote the waters that [were] in the river, in the sight of Pharaoh, and in the sight of his servants; and all the waters that [were] in the river were turned to blood. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
| And the third angel poured out his vial upon the rivers and fountains of waters; and they became blood. 
Fountains has a "cascading" etymology. It's literal meaning is the water table, and rain from heaven: Gen 8:2 The fountains also of the deep and the windows of heaven were stopped, and the rain from heaven was restrained; The Hebrew word for "waters" is "Ma'yim" "Fountains" "Ma'yan" and "Mah'yaw-naw'"
From the literal, it is often used in metaphor: Psa 36:9 For with thee [is] the fountain of life: in thy light shall we see light. a metaphor of life: Jer 17:13 O LORD, the hope of Israel, all that forsake thee shall be ashamed, [and] they that depart from me shall be written in the earth, because they have forsaken the LORD, the fountain of living waters. Joe 3:18 And it shall come to pass in that day, [that] the mountains shall drop down new wine, and the hills shall flow with milk, and all the rivers of Judah shall flow with waters, and a fountain shall come forth of the house of the LORD, and shall water the valley of Shittim. The Valley of Shittim refers to the Dead Sea. Joel, the prophet, prophesizes about the water under the throne of God in Jerusalem, literally healing all the poisoned waters in the Dead Sea. The great Prophet, Ezekiel saw the THRONE as it will be, with living waters going forth. This is the imagery of The Tree of Life, being watered next to the THRONE (thronos/seat) of the LORD, from under the temple. Is this surprising? The LORD has already turned the desert of Palestine into Zion, His bride. Eze 47:1 Afterward he brought me again unto the door 'of the house; and, behold, waters issued out from under the threshold of the house eastward: for the forefront of the house [stood toward] the east, and the waters came down from under from the right side of the house, at the south [side] of the altar. Zec 13:1 In that day there shall be a fountain opened to the house of David and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem for sin and for uncleanness. In Zechariah, this great verse is the salvation of the Jews, in the 2nd Coming, (for the Gentiles) and the regrafting of the seed of Abraham and Sarah into the Tree of Life . Rev 21:6 And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely.  | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
| And I heard the angel of the waters say, Thou art righteous, O Lord, which art, and wast, and shalt be, because thou hast judged thus. (Lord, you are worthy!) | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
| For they have shed the blood of saints and prophets, and thou hast given them blood to drink; for they are worthy.
Blood and wine are metaphorically interchangeable. Rev 14:8 And there followed another angel, saying, Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.

| And I heard another out of the altar say, Even so, Lord God Almighty, true and righteous [are] thy judgments. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
| And the fourth angel poured out his vial upon the sun; and power was given unto him to scorch men with fire.  | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
| And men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the name of God, which hath power over these plagues : and they repented not to give him glory. Taking the Lord's name in vain, and blaming Him.
Blasphemy of the LORD is death:

| And the fifth angel poured out his vial upon the seat of the beast; and his kingdom was full of darkness; and they gnawed their tongues for pain, Beast- Therion
Seat=Thronos (THRONE)- OF THE BEAST Thronos Therion? (KEY- 3rd Church Pergamos) Therion means creature, and often heavenly, or infernal beast, v kitty cats. It can be used colloquial for Satan, the snake/dragon/alligator beast in these contexts: (. MARDUK.) In Godly context, BEAST can refer to CHERUBIMs that surround the LORD's THRONE. This "Beast" is typically the synonomous ZOON And I heard a great voice out of the temple saying to the seven angels, Go your ways, and pour out the vials of the wrath of God upon the earth. Rev 15:7 And one of the four beasts (Dzo on') gave unto the seven angels seven golden vials full of the wrath of God, who liveth for ever and ever.
on the bestial aspect of it's meaning, vs. the Cherubims' ZOON (beast). The etymology of the two words are deliberately contrasted to provide a balance between the divine and the damned, natural and unnatural. Eze 10:1 Then I looked, and, behold, in the firmament that was above the head of the cherubims there appeared over them as it were a sapphire stone, as the appearance of the likeness of a throne. CONTEXT- In Daniel , Nebuchadnezzar, King of Babylon, is driven mad and becomes a beast, for 7 years, until the LORD restored his mind.  Dan 4:33 The same hour was the thing fulfilled upon Nebuchadnezzar: and he was driven from men, and did eat grass as oxen, and his body was wet with the dew of heaven, till his hairs were grown like eagles' [feathers], and his nails like birds' [claws]. Satan's seat = seat of the beast (Throne) Rev 2:13 I know thy works, and where thou dwellest, [even] where Satan's seat [is]: and thou holdest fast my name, and hast not denied my faith, even in those days wherein Antipas [was] my faithful martyr, who was slain among you, where Satan dwelleth.
Satan's throne - PERGAMOS - Third Candlestick/Church Pergamos is on the west coast of Turkey, facing Cyprus and Greece.  Pergamos has mixed blessings. The LORD's NAME is the "sharp two-edged sword" \(Every church has it's own unique set of commands!) This church was guilty of the fusion of the Jealousy (Cult of Isis), perverting Christianity even further by profane philosophies of the Nicolaitans, who were cynical gnostics. Is this verse literal? Will Turkey be obliterated by nuclear fusion, or brimstone? Do we continue to decode? Does Pergamos in Turkey represent America or a Middle-Eastern kingdom, and John needed a way to portray what he saw? | |||||||||||||||||||||||||

| And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates; and the water thereof was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared.  KING FROM THE EAST- (Duality) Simultaneouslyrefers to The LORD, "The Morning Star," representing His Return. Kings of the east: Jos 12:1 Now these [are] the kings of the land, which the children of Israel smote, and possessed their land on the other side Jordan toward the rising of the sun, from the river Arnon unto mount Hermon, and all the plain on the east: Isa 41:2 Who raised up the righteous [man] from the east, called him to his foot, gave the nations before him, and made [him] rule over kings? he gave [them] as the dust to his sword, [and] as driven stubble to his bow. Euphrates - Gen 2:14 And the name of the third river [is] Hiddekel: that [is] it which goeth toward the east of Assyria. And the fourth river [is] Euphrates.

| And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs [come] out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet. FROGS- Second plague in EGYPT
Frogs are only mentioned in the Bible in reference to the second plague in Egypt, and then this unique reference in Rev. The Hebrew word for frogs,      has a corresponding meaning which is "that which leaps from a marsh." The "unclean spirits," leaping from the marshy muck of the beast, and dragon, and the false prophet, the unholy trinity, are analogous to the 2nd plague in Egypt, the plague of frogs. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
| For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, [which] go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty. "Day of God Almighty"- Day of the LORD. There are hundreds of references in OT about the Day of the LORD, starting with Isaiah: Isa 2:12 For the day of the LORD of hosts [shall be] upon every [one that is] proud and lofty, and upon every [one that is] lifted up; and he shall be brought low: Isa 13:6 Howl ye; for the day of the LORD [is] at hand; it shall come as a destruction from the Almighty. both with wrath and fierce anger, to lay the land desolate: and he shall destroy the sinners thereof out of it. Joe 2:31 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of the LORD come. for the day of the LORD [is] near in the valley of decision. DAY OF THE LORD IN SCRIPTURE The last "Day of the LORD" in the Old Testament is in Malachi, the prophet: Mal 4:5 Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD: The Day of the LORD - Compensates for the HOLY SABBATH that was blasphemed. THIS IS VITAL TO UNDERSTANDING THE DAY OF THE LORD! Exd 20:10 But the seventh day [is] the sabbath of the LORD thy God: [in it] thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that [is] within thy gates: Exd 20:11 For [in] six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them [is], and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it. Exd 31:15 Six days may work be done; but in the seventh [is] the sabbath of rest, holy to the LORD: whosoever doeth [any] work in the sabbath day, he shall surely be put to death. Exd 35:2 Six days shall work be done, but on the seventh day there shall be to you an holy day, a sabbath of rest to the LORD: whosoever doeth work therin shall be put to death. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed [is] he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame. Mat 24:43 But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
| And the seventh angel poured out his vial into the air; and there came a great voice out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, It is done.

| And the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations felll: and great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her the wine of the fierceness of his wrath.  I love this iconical painting. I think it's a cool representation. Especially welldone is the whore, dressed like a queen in purple, a scarlet sash, and embroidery. Exd 26:1 Moreover thou shalt make the tabernacle [with] ten curtains [of] fine twined linen, and blue, and purple, and scarlet: [with] cherubims of cunning work shalt thou make them. Exd 26:36 And thou shalt make an hanging for the door of the tent, [of] blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen, wrought with needlework. Clever. The halo-ish helmet on the whore, is similar to paintings of the saints and madonna in the old style. The only way to understand the whore is to read the Book of Hosea, the prophet.
Hebrew word for JOSHUA, Yeshua, and similar to Jesus Christ's Hebrew name. It's the family name of Joshua, the son of Nun. (The one annointed by Moses to lead the Hebrews into the Promised Land.) Hosea was the 19th and last king of the Northern Kingdom of Israel. (Where Megiddo is.) During Hosea's life, in the N. Kingdom, God dramatizes the fall of Israel spectacularly, especially with Jezebel, Queen of Israel, Elijah, and the Prophets. Elijah was the Prophet for Israel, the N. Kingdom where Megiddo is, and proximal to Gallilee. Beth-el was the Jerusalem of the North. It was so named by Abraham, where the LORD appeared to him, then to his grandson Jacob. It was very HOLY. By the time of the Kings of Israel's last days, Beth-el was completely adulterated with provocations of the Jealousy, the abomination where the place where the Lord stood. It was where the Israelites venerated the "Golden Calf" part of the Isis cult. The once holy land was desecrated by the abomination, and then destroyed, by Babylon. Israel went into captivity to Babylon for 70 years. ... "Great Babylon" is different than original Babylon. Many of us think it's the U.S.A. Dan 4:30 The king spake, and said, Is not this great Babylon, that I have built for the house of the kingdom by the might of my power, and for the honour of my majesty? and the cities of the nations fell: and great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
