seven thunders uttered their voices

“And I saw another mighty angel come down from heaven, clothed with a cloud: and a rainbow was upon his head, and his face was as it were the sun, and his feet as pillars of fire: And he had in his hand a little book open: and he set his right foot upon the sea, and his left foot on the earth,  And cried with a loud voice, as when a lion roareth: and when he had cried, seven thunders uttered their voices.  And when the seven thunders had uttered their voices, I was about to write: and I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Seal up those things which the seven thunders uttered, and write them not.”  Revelation 10:1-4

to “seal up’ σφραγίζω  sphragizō  (Strongs Concordance: by implication to keep secret, to attest)

I believe what John is being shown in Revelation Chapter 10 is the mystery of God is finished, Paul tells us the mystery of God is the Church.  There is time no longer as the spirit counts time, where a thousand years is as one day,  the events now revert in some manner to the promises God made to Israel and to completing the law of Moses in the flesh upon the Earth,

“But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory: Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.”   1 Corinthians 2:7-8

“How that by revelation he made known unto me the mystery; (as I wrote afore in few words, Whereby, when ye read, ye may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ) Which in other ages was not made known unto the sons of men, as it is now revealed unto his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit;”  Ephesians 3:3-5

As Jesus ascended with a cloud, this powerful angel is descending with a cloud, and while we’re not told who he is,  he has much in common with Gabriel who always appeared announcing the conditional timing and coming of the Messiah, we’re witnesses with understanding to what has been, the rainbow over his head is the everlasting covenant God made with the Earth and every living thing in it,  the sea represents the gentiles out of every tribe, tongue, nation and peoples, the Earth is Israel.  This is the Church, (made up of Jew and Gentile) and Israel. The Angel is standing (speaking to) both the Earth and sea, as opposed to being above it as we’re shown in similar circumstances in Daniel Chapter 12.

And the Angels face shone as the sun, as Moses face shone to Israel, and as Jesus’ face when he was transfigured, revealing his true appearance to the select group of apostles,

“Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded; But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all. Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed.”  Luke 17:28-30

“And not as Moses, which put a vail over his face, that the children of Israel could not stedfastly look to the end of that which is abolished: But their minds were blinded: for until this day remaineth the same vail untaken away in the reading of the old testament; which vail is done away in Christ. But even unto this day, when Moses is read, the vail is upon their heart. Nevertheless when it shall turn to the Lord, the vail shall be taken away.” 2 Corinthians 3:13-16

The veil will remain in place for Israel until the Son of man is revealed,

I believe the seven thunders are referencing what we’re shown in Psalm 81:

“Thou calledst in trouble, and I delivered thee; I answered thee in the secret place of thunder: I proved thee at the waters of Meribah. Selah.”  Psalm 81:10

Psalm 81 points us to the events that happened at the waters at Meribah, as recorded in Exodus 17 and again later in Numbers 20 and shows us what God has performed with Israel, it became the Law of Moses which they recorded, practiced and then transgressed and whereby their house was left desolate.  Jesus was the Rock, to be struck only once and then life giving waters to be poured out.

“Hear, O my people, and I will testify unto thee: O Israel, if thou wilt hearken unto me; “ Psalm 81:8

The vision Daniel saw in similar manner, where the man clothed in linen held up both hands to heaven,  was above the river and the Earth, a division of time, a division of a Seven, a  ‘time times and half ‘ a time is being shown to us,

“Then I Daniel looked, and, behold, there stood other two, the one on this side of the bank of the river, and the other on that side of the bank of the river. And one said to the man clothed in linen, which was upon the waters of the river, How long shall it be to the end of these wonders?  And I heard the man clothed in linen, which was upon the waters of the river, when he held up his right hand and his left hand unto heaven, and sware by him that liveth for ever that it shall be for a time, times, and an half; and when he shall have accomplished to scatter the power of the holy people, all these things shall be finished.And I heard, but I understood not: then said I, O my Lord, what shall be the end of these things?  And he said, Go thy way, Daniel: for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end.”  Daniel 12:5-9

This will not be understood until the time of the end,

“And the angel which I saw stand upon the sea and upon the earth lifted up his hand to heaven, And sware by him that liveth for ever and ever, who created heaven, and the things that therein are, and the earth, and the things that therein are, and the sea, and the things which are therein, that there should be time no longer:  But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets.” Revelation 10:5-7

Counting from the mid-point of a 7000 year (week) pattern:

|Sunday|Monday|Tuesday|Wednesday|Thursday|Friday|Saturday|

April 6th, 32 AD is exactly 17 years, or 6120 days (x360) to Wednesday on a 7000 year/week pattern, or being day 1,440,000 coming to January 6th 49 AD, leaving 7000 more days and then 888 days to the destruction of Jerusalem and the temple just as Jesus described:

“And as he went out of the temple, one of his disciples saith unto him, Master, see what manner of stones and what buildings are here!  And Jesus answering said unto him, Seest thou these great buildings? there shall not be left one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.” Mark 13:1-2

2520 years (907,200 days) plus 50 years (18,000 days) or the Jubilee.  Jesus was the word made flesh, Jesus is the Jubilee, the redeemer, the Gospel is the Jubilee and I suspect in this pattern of days, his life is reflected in the timeline as the jubilee,

“And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.”  John 1:14
“dwelt” is the Greek: eskenosen = tabernacle

From Moses, the Exodus and the Tabernacle (Jesus in the flesh) to the decree of Artaxerxes (the midpoint of a 7000 year timeline) to the Resurrection:

November 4th 1448 BC|–360,000 days –1000 years—-|17 years| March 15, 445 BC

A time, times and half a time to 5th of Iyar (April 21, 2020) restored Israel’s ‘Holocaust Remembrance Day’ and then a week later, ‘Independence Day’ from May 14th, 1948

“I am the LORD thy God, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt: open thy mouth wide, and I will fill it.  But my people would not hearken to my voice; and Israel would none of me. “ Psalm 81:10-11

“He should have fed them also with the finest of the wheat: and with honey out of the rock should I have satisfied thee. ”  Psalm 81:16

“And I went unto the angel, and said unto him, Give me the little book. And he said unto me, Take it, and eat it up; and it shall make thy belly bitter, but it shall be in thy mouth sweet as honey.  And I took the little book out of the angel’s hand, and ate it up; and it was in my mouth sweet as honey: and as soon as I had eaten it, my belly was bitter.  And he said unto me, Thou must prophesy again before many peoples, and nations, and tongues, and kings.”  Revelation 10:9-11

“Behold, I will stand before thee there upon the rock in Horeb; and thou shalt smite the rock, and there shall come water out of it, that the people may drink. And Moses did so in the sight of the elders of Israel.  And he called the name of the place Massah, and Meribah, because of the chiding of the children of Israel, and because they tempted the LORD, saying, Is the LORD among us, or not?”  Exodus 17:6-7

The second time Moses was commanded to only speak to the rock, but instead he struck it as he had done years before and because the pattern was broken, the Rock was to be struck only the first time, he was not allowed to go into the Promised Land.  Jesus is that Rock and will come again.

“I will go and return to my place, till they acknowledge their offence , and seek my face: in their affliction they will seek me early.” Hosea 5:15

“And Moses took the rod from before the LORD, as he commanded him.  And Moses and Aaron gathered the congregation together before the rock, and he said unto them, Hear now, ye rebels; must we fetch you water out of this rock?  And Moses lifted up his hand, and with his rod he smote the rock twice: and the water came out abundantly, and the congregation drank, and their beasts also.  And the LORD spake unto Moses and Aaron, Because ye believed me not, to sanctify me in the eyes of the children of Israel, therefore ye shall not bring this congregation into the land which I have given them.  This is the water of Meribah; because the children of Israel strove with the LORD, and he was sanctified in them.  Numbers 20:9-13

“How long shall be the vision concerning the daily sacrifice, and the transgression of desolation, to give both the sanctuary and the host to be trodden under foot? And he said unto me, Unto two thousand and three hundred days; then shall the sanctuary be cleansed.”  Daniel 8:13-14

for these patterns, recall

|70|        |40|         |10| = 120 years —–> Elul August 14, 2015  (flood, 120 years)

August 16, 587 BCthis is where the 9th of AV and the Temple desolation timeline begins, where the 666 years begins counting to the second Temple desolation in AD 70 then count to Rosh Chodesh Elul August 14th, 2015 as exactly 950,000 days + 40 days to Yom Kippur, + 360 days = 2520 years + 120 years to the very day.

“and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined.”  Daniel 9:26

The temple is desolate until the end.

Counting from Rosh Chodesh Elul August 14, 2015 (40 days prior to Yom Kippur 2015) at the end of what appears to be a pattern within the framework itself of the Temple timeline (again all conjecture) is interestingly exactly 2300 days to Hanukkah, November 29, 2021.

The Holy Temple desolation(s) minus the above 120 year timeline leaves a remainder of 2519 years on September 23, 2015 (the fullness of the gentiles has to come in?  this number does come in 360 days (1 year exactly) of the 2520 day pattern that immediately follows September 23, 2015.  Add 360 days and your 400 days past Elul August 14, 2015 and its 2520 years coming in.  Into what?  Into the 2520 day pattern that follows from September 23, 2015 on Yom Kippur, which is exact (to the very day) Jubilee distance from Jerusalem restored  on June 7th 1967.

“. .and shall be led away captive into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled.” Luke 21:2

“For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in. Romans 11:25 (emphasis added)

“And the vision of the evening and the morning which was told is true: wherefore shut thou up the vision; for it shall be for many days.”  Daniel 8:26

Hanukkah celebrates the cleansing and re-dedication of the Temple on the 25th of Kislev in 165 BC and the miracle of the oil for the Menorah lasting Eight days when it should have lasted only one.  Antiochus IV Epiphanes committed the abomination of desolation in the sanctuary.  Judah the youngest son of Mattathias the High Priest led the revolt, when they reclaimed the Temple three years later, they discovered they had only enough oil for the Temple for one day.

“And it came to pass, when I, even I Daniel, had seen the vision, and sought for the meaning, then, behold, there stood before me as the appearance of a man.  And I heard a man’s voice between the banks of Ulai, which called, and said, Gabriel, make this man to understand the vision.  So he came near where I stood: and when he came, I was afraid, and fell upon my face: but he said unto me, Understand, O son of man: for at the time of the end shall be the vision.”  Daniel 8:15-17 (emphasis added)

Jesus recognized Hanukkah in John Chapter 10.  Jesus was the Temple made flesh.

“and it was at Jerusalem the feast of the dedication, and it was winter. And Jesus walked in the temple in Solomon’s porch.”  John 10:22-23
