Apocalipse 16:7 Meaning and Commentary

Revelation 16:7

And I heard another out of the altar say
That is, another angel that came out of the altar; see ( Revelation 14:18 ) and who represents the souls under the altar, whose blood had been shed by the above persons; compare with this ( Revelation 6:9 ) though, there, such whose blood had been shed by Rome Pagan are described; the Ethiopic version calls this angel as before, "the angel of the fountains of water"; and the Alexandrian copy, and Syriac and Arabic versions, read, "I heard the altar saying": as follows,

even so, Lord God Almighty, true and righteous are thy judgments;
the same as in ( Revelation 15:3 ) ( 19:2 ) . This angel joins the other, and approves and confirms what he says; applauding the judgements of Christ upon the worshippers of the beast, from the verity of them, being what were threatened, and from the justice of them, being what they deserved.

Apocalipse 16:7 In-Context

5 Então ouvi o anjo que tem autoridade sobre as águas dizer:“Tu és justo, tu, o Santo, que és e que eras,porque julgaste estas coisas;

6 pois eles derramaramo sangue dos teus santose dos teus profetas,e tu lhes deste sanguepara beber,como eles merecem”.

7 E ouvi o altar responder:“Sim, Senhor Deus todo-poderoso,verdadeiros e justossão os teus juízos”.

8 O quarto anjo derramou a sua taça no sol, e foi dado poder ao sol para queimar os homens com fogo.

9 Estes foram queimados pelo forte calor e amaldiçoaram o nome de Deus, que tem domínio sobre estas pragas; contudo, recusaram arrepender-se e glorificá-lo.
