Apocalipsis 14:19 Meaning and Commentary

Revelation 14:19

And the angel thrust in his sickle into the earth
Before "upon the earth", when the harvest was gathered in, the wheat being on the earth, but not belonging to it; but here "into the earth", the vine being the vine of the earth, rooted in it, and natural to it:

and gathered the vine of the earth;
the Arabic version reads, "of the whole earth"; in like manner as the tares in the parable are said to be gathered, and bound in bundles, and cast into the fire, which, as here, intends the destruction of the wicked, at the end of the world: this vine may be said to be cut down at the burning of the world, and to be gathered at the second resurrection, as the wheat harvest of the saints will be at the first resurrection:

and cast it into the great winepress the wrath of God;
the same with the lake which burns with fire and brimstone, so often mentioned in this book: the torments of the wicked will lie in the wrath of God being poured forth upon them, and into them, which will be that fire that cannot be quenched, and that worm that never dies; and this is signified by the squeezing of grapes in a winepress, as God's judgments in this world sometimes are, ( Isaiah 63:3 Isaiah 63:6 ) and which will be very heavy and intolerable, since this winepress will be trod by the Lord God Almighty: and it is said to be a great one, as it must needs be, to hold the vine of the whole earth, or all the wicked of the world, who will be like the sand of the sea, innumerable; and this will be big enough for them all, and they will all be cast into it at once. Tophet is deep and large, ( Isaiah 30:33 ) .

Apocalipsis 14:19 In-Context

17 Y salió otro ángel del templo que está en el cielo, teniendo también una hoz aguda.

18 Y otro ángel salió del altar, el cual tenía poder sobre el fuego, y clamó con gran voz al que tenía la hoz aguda, diciendo: Mete tu hoz aguda, y vendimia los racimos de la tierra; porque están maduras sus uvas.

19 Y el ángel echó su hoz aguda en la tierra, y vendimió la viña de la tierra, y echó la uva en el grande lagar de la ira de Dios.

20 Y el lagar fué hollado fuera de la ciudad, y del lagar salió sangre hasta los frenos de los caballos por mil y seiscientos estadios.
