Apocalipse 8:11 Meaning and Commentary

Revelation 8:11

And the name of the star is called Wormwood
Because of the bitter afflictions, sorrows, and distresses which it was the instrument of; just as Naomi called herself Mara, because the Almighty had dealt bitterly with her, ( Ruth 1:20 ) ;

and the third part of the waters became wormwood;
that is, the inhabitants of the provinces and cities belonging to the Roman empire were afflicted with grievous and bitter afflictions and calamities; so great distresses are called wormwood, and waters of gall given to drink, ( Jeremiah 9:15 ) ( Lamentations 3:19 ) ;

and many men died of the waters, because they were bitter;
through the barbarities and cruelties of these savage people, who afflicted the empire: there seems to be an allusion to ( Exodus 15:23 ) .

9 E morreu a terça parte das criaturas viventes que havia no mar, e foi destruída a terça parte dos navios.
10 O terceiro anjo tocou a sua trombeta, e caiu do céu uma grande estrela, ardendo como uma tocha, e caiu sobre a terça parte dos rios, e sobre as fontes das águas.
11 O nome da estrela era Absinto; e a terça parte das águas tornou-se em absinto, e muitos homens morreram das águas, porque se tornaram amargas.
12 O quarto anjo tocou a sua trombeta, e foi ferida a terça parte do sol, a terça parte da lua, e a terça parte das estrelas; para que a terça parte deles se escurecesse, e a terça parte do dia não brilhante, e semelhantemente a da noite.
13 E olhei, e ouvi uma águia que, voando pelo meio do céu, dizia com grande voz: Ai, ai, ai dos que habitam sobre a terra! por causa dos outros toques de trombeta dos três anjos que ainda vão tocar.
