Apocalipsis 18:5

Listen to Apocalipsis 18:5
5 porque sus pecados se han amontonado hasta el cielo, y Dios se ha acordado de sus iniquidades.

Apocalipsis 18:5 Meaning and Commentary

Revelation 18:5

For her sins have reached unto heaven
Or "have followed unto heaven"; one after another, in one age after another, until they have been as it were heaped up together, and have reached the heavens; the phrase denotes the multitude of them, God's knowledge and notice of them, and the cry of them to him; see ( Genesis 18:20 ) ( Jonah 1:2 ) the Alexandrian copy and Complutensian edition read, "have cleaved", or "glued", and so the Syriac and Arabic versions seem to have read; her sins were as it were soldered together, and stuck fast to her, and being joined and linked together, made a long chain, and reached to heaven, and cleaved to that, and cried for vengeance:

and God hath remembered her iniquities;
and is about to punish her for them; for as forgiveness of sin is signified by a non-remembrance of it, so punishment of sin by a remembrance of it, and of the persons that commit it; see ( Revelation 16:19 ) .

Apocalipsis 18:5 In-Context

3 Porque todas las naciones han bebido delvino de la pasión de su inmoralidad, y los reyes de la tierra han cometido actos inmorales con ella, y los mercaderes de la tierra se han enriquecido con la riqueza de su sensualidad.
4 Y oí otra voz del cielo que decía: Salid de ella, pueblo mío, para que no participéis de sus pecados y para que no recibáis de sus plagas;
5 porque sus pecados se han amontonado hasta el cielo, y Dios se ha acordado de sus iniquidades.
6 Pagadle tal como ella ha pagado, y devolvedle doble según sus obras; en la copa que ella ha preparado, preparad el doble para ella.
7 Cuanto ella se glorificó a sí misma y vivió sensualmente, así dadle tormento y duelo, porque dice en su corazón: "YO estoy SENTADA como REINA, Y NO SOY VIUDA y nunca veré duelo."
