Apocalipsis 18:24 Meaning and Commentary

Revelation 18:24

And in her was found the blood of prophets and of saints,
&c.] Such as before mentioned, in ( Revelation 18:20 ) this is another reason of her destruction, besides her luxury and idolatry, namely, her shedding the blood of the saints, with which she is said to be drunk, and therefore blood is now given her to drink, ( Revelation 17:6 ) ( 16:6 ) for she will now be found guilty of slaying the witnesses, who are meant by the prophets and saints, that have been from the beginning of the apostasy:

and of all that were slain upon the earth:
not only of those that have been slain in the city of Rome, but of all those that have been slain throughout the empire; they being slain by her order, or with her consent, and she conniving at it, encouraging it, and therefore will be justly chargeable with it all; see ( Matthew 23:31 Matthew 23:32 Matthew 23:35 ) the Ethiopic version adds, "for the name of Christ".

Apocalipsis 18:24 In-Context

22 Nunca más se oirá en ti el sonido de las
arpas, los cantantes, las flautas y las trompetas.
No se encontrarán en ti
ni artesanos ni comercio,
ni se volverá a oír
el sonido del molino.

23 Nunca más brillará en ti
la luz de una lámpara
ni se oirán las felices voces
de los novios y las novias.
Pues tus comerciantes eran los grandes del mundo,
y tú engañaste a las naciones con tus hechicerías.

24 La sangre de los profetas y del pueblo santo de Dios corrió en tus calles,
junto con la sangre de gente masacrada por todo el mundo».
