Contents of this page: Note: This book, the book of Revelation, was originally ignored when looking for confirmation of statements in the first four books of the Christian extension of the Jewish Bible, which extension is called the "New Testament". Therefore no verses of this book became part of This Good Riddle. This worksheet for the book of Revelation is intended to rectify this situation. This worksheet was made from a copy of the list at http://www.muslimhope.com/BibleAnswers/rev.htm Typical layout of an item in this worksheet: Item 01] Bear witness to the testimony of Christ. Status: the fragment "and bare record of that and of all the testimony" was confirmed to be essential by these verses instead of the concept which was stated in the list. These newly confirmed to be essential words have been added to the collection of fragments as frag-003. {Revelation 1:2} Who bare record of the word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, and of all things that he saw. {John-1 1:2} (For the life was manifested,
and we have seen [it,] and bear witness, and shew unto you that eternal
life, which was with the Father, and was manifested unto us;) Item 02] Blessed are those who hear. Status: this concept is confirmed to be essential by the implications of the other verses. Rev 1:3 is therefore redundant. {Revelation 1:3} Blessed [is] he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time [is] at hand.
061-a
Matthew
13:16 But blessed are
your eyes, for
they see: and your
ears, for they hear. Item 03] Sevenfold Spirit Status: this concept is not confirmed to be essential by these verses. See paragraph 030. {Revelation 1:4} John to the seven
churches which are in Asia: Grace [be] unto you, and peace, from him
which is, and which was, and which is to come; and from the seven Spirits
which are before his throne; {Zechariah 3:9} For behold the stone that I have laid before Joshua; upon one stone [shall be] seven eyes: behold, I will engrave the graving thereof, saith the LORD of hosts, and I will remove the iniquity of that land in one day. {Isaiah 11:2} And the spirit of the LORD shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD; Item 04] Jesus: firstborn of the dead Status: this concept is not confirmed to be essential by these verses. {Revelation 1:5} And from Jesus Christ, [who is] the faithful witness, [and] the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood, {Colossians 1:15} Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn
of every creature: Item 05] Jesus freed us from sins by His blood Status: the concept above is not confirmed to be essential by these verses, but the fragment "his own blood" is confirmed to be essential. This fragment was added to the collection of fragments as frag-037. {Revelation 1:5} And from Jesus Christ, [who is] the faithful witness, [and] the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood, {Romans 5:9} Much more then,
being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him. Item 06] We are kings and priests to God Status: this concept is not confirmed to be essential by these verses. {Revelation 1:5} And from Jesus Christ, [who is] the faithful witness, [and] the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood, {Peter-1 2:4} To
whom coming, [as unto] a living stone, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of
God, [and] precious, Item 07] Jesus comes with the clouds; every eye shall see Jesus return Status: the concept that Jesus comes in the clouds and that he will be seen is confirmed to be essential without Rev 1:7. See below. Revelation 1:7 Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye
shall see him, and they [also] which pierced him: and all kindreds of 102-c.htm Matthew 24:30 And then
shall appear the sign of the Son of man in
heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and
they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds
of heaven with power and great
glory. {Acts 1:7} And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power. Daniel 7:13 I saw in the night visions, and, behold, one like the Son of man
came with the clouds of heaven, and came to the Ancient of days, and they
brought him near before him. Item 08] The Son of man will be like lightning that flashes Status: this concept is already confirmed to be essential; but what has this to do with the book of Revelation? 102-d Matthew 24:27 For as the lightning
cometh out of the east, and
shineth even unto the west;
so shall also the coming of
the Son of
man be. Item 09] The wicked pierced Jesus and will mourn Status: it is confirmed to be essential without the book of Revelation that Jesus was pierced; but it is not confirmed to be essential that the wicked (or anybody else) will mourn because of having pierced him despite the fact that it is also confirmed to be essential that there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. Revelation 1:7 Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they [also] which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen.
125-g Zechariah 12:10 And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the
inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications:
and they shall look
upon me
whom they have
pierced, and they
shall mourn for him,
as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one
that is in bitterness for his firstborn. Item 10] Second death Status: although there is a situation which can appropriately be described by the phrase "second death", the existence of the situation (mentioned at paragraph 019 ) was confirmed to be essential without using the book of Revelation which is therefore redundant in this instance. All of the mentioned verses are nevertheless displayed below. Revelation 2:11} He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith
unto the churches; He that overcometh shall not be hurt of the second
death. {Isaiah 66:24} And they shall go forth, and look upon the carcases
of the men that have transgressed against me: for their worm shall not
Matthew 13:24 Another
parable put he forth unto them, saying,
The kingdom of heaven
is likened unto a man
which
sowed good
seed in his
field: Matthew 13:25 But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way. Matthew 13:26 But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also. Matthew 13:27 So the servants of the householder came and said unto him, Sir, didst not thou sow good seed in thy field? from whence then hath it tares? Matthew 13:28 He said unto them, An enemy hath done this. The servants said unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up? Matthew 13:29 But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them. Matthew 13:30 Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn. Matthew 13:31 Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is like to a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and sowed in his field: Matthew 13:32 Which indeed is the least of all seeds: but when it is grown, it is the greatest among herbs, and becometh a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in the branches thereof. Matthew 13:33 Another parable spake he unto them; The kingdom of heaven is like unto leaven, which a woman took, and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened. Matthew 13:34 All these things spake Jesus unto the multitude in parables; and without a parable spake he not unto them: Matthew 13:35 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying, I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things which have been kept secret from the foundation of the world. {Matthew 13:36}
Then Jesus sent the multitude away, and went into the house: and his {Matthew 13:37} He answered and said unto them, He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man; {Matthew 13:38} The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked [one;] {Matthew 13:39} The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels. {Matthew 13:40} As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world. {Matthew 13:41} The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity; {Matthew 13:42} And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth. {Matthew 13:43} Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Who hath ears to hear, let him hear. {Matthew 13:50} And shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth. {Matthew 25:41} Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels: {Matthew 25:42} For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink: {Matthew 25:43} I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not. {Matthew 25:44} Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee? {Matthew 25:45} Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did [it] not to one of the least of these, ye did [it] not to me. {Matthew 25:46} And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal. Item 11] Let him who has ears, let him hear Status: this concept was confirmed to be essential by the verses shown in 022-f. These verses of Revelation are therefore redundant. {Revelation 2:29} He
that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches. {Matthew 11:15} He that hath ears to hear, let him hear. {Mark 4:23} If any man have ears to hear, let him hear. Luke 8:8 And other fell on good ground, and sprang up, and bare fruit an hundredfold. And when he had said these things, he cried, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear. Item 12] We must remain watchful Status: this concept was confirmed to be essential in paragraph 099 and also in paragraph 102. These verses of Revelation are therefore redundant. {Revelation 3:2} Be watchful, and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die: for I have not found thy works perfect before God. {Revelation 3:3}Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee. Matthew 24:4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.
Matthew 24:44 Therefore
be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye
think not the Son of man cometh.
Mark 13:33 Take
ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when
the time is. Luke 21:36 Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man. Item 13] We do not know when Jesus will return Status: this concept was confirmed to be essential in paragraph 099 and also in paragraph 102. These verses of Revelation are therefore redundant. {Revelation 3:3}Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee. Matthew 24:36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only. Mark 13:32 But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father. The Book of Life Status: the phrase the "book of life" is not confirmed to be essential by these verses. What is confirmed to be essential instead is the fragment "And whosoever was, that their names are yet found written in my book, I will not blot him out; but thou, thy same, shall be of the great which shall stand there." This fragment has been added to the collection of fragments as frag-004. {Revelation 3:5} He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels. {Revelation 13:8} And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world. {Revelation 17:8} The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is. {Revelation 20:12} And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is [the book] of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. {Revelation 20:15} And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. {Revelation 21:27} And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defileth, neither [whatsoever] worketh abomination, or [maketh] a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb's book of life. {Daniel 12:1} And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation [even] to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book. {Luke 10:20} Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven. {Exodus 32:32} Yet now, if thou wilt forgive their sin--; and if not, blot me, I pray thee, out of thy book which thou hast written. {Exodus 32:33} And the LORD said unto Moses, Whosoever hath sinned against me, him will I blot out of my book {Psalm 69:28} Let them be blotted out of the book of the living, and not be written with the righteous. Item 14] Never be blotted out of the Book of Life Status: the concept of "never be blotted out" is confirmed to be essential by these verses (and additional verses, see item 15 above) for some people; but not for other people. {Revelation 3:5} He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white
raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I
will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels. {Exodus 32:32} Yet now, if thou wilt forgive their sin--; and if not, blot
me, I pray thee, out of thy book which thou hast written. {Psalm 69:28} Let them be blotted out of the book of the living, and not be written with the righteous. Item 16] What God shuts none can open. What God opens none can shut Status: the words He [is] the key of David. He openeth, and no man shutteth; and shutteth, and no man openeth have now been confirmed to be essential, and have been added to the collection of fragments as frag-002. Revelation 3:7 And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write; These things saith he that is holy, he that is true, he that hath the key of David, he that openeth, and no man shutteth; and shutteth, and no man openeth; Isaiah 22:22 And the key of the house of David will I lay upon his shoulder; so he shall open, and none shall shut; and he shall shut, and none shall open. Item 17] Have an open door opened door Status: the words above were confirmed to be essential by the verses below. These words seems to be related to Item 16], so these words have been added to frag-002 {Revelation 3:8} I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name. {Acts 14:27} And when they were come, and had gathered the church together, they rehearsed all that God had done with them, and how he had opened the door of faith unto the Gentiles. {Corinthians-1 16:9} Item 18] We will receive crowns and rewards Status: although sub-paragraph 092-f confirms that we may receive a reward, the equivalence of crowns and rewards is not yet confirmed. What is instead confirmed, by the verses below, are the words "man crown fast". These words have therefore been saved as frag-005. {Revelation 3:11} Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown. {Corinthians-1 3:12} Now if any man
build upon this foundation gold, silver,
precious stones, wood, hay, stubble; {Philippians 4:1} Therefore, my brethren dearly beloved and longed for, my joy and crown, so stand fast in the Lord, [my] dearly beloved. Item 19] We are a part of the Temple of God Status: This fragment was eliminated. Please see the revision at frag-006. {Revelation 3:12} Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, [which is] new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and [I will write upon him] my new name. {Corinthians-1 3:16} Know ye not
that ye are the temple of God,
and [that] the Spirit
of God dwelleth
in you? {Peter-1 2:5} Ye also, as lively
stones,
are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual
sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ. Item 20] As many as are loved are chastened Status: a slightly larger concept was confirmed to be essential words of God by these verses, to wit: My son, despise not the chastening of the LORD For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth and rebuketh. He correcteth as father the son. These newly confirmed to be essential words of God have been added to the collection of fragments as frag-001. {Revelation 3:19} As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent. {Proverbs 3:11} My son, despise not the chastening of the LORD; neither be
weary of his correction: {Hebrews 12:5} And ye
have forgotten the exhortation which speaketh unto you
as unto
children, My son, despise not thou
the chastening of the Lord, nor
faint when thou art rebuked of him: The throne room in Heaven Status: This item is being revised. This was originally added to the collection of fragments as frag-007. Revelation 4:1 ¶After this I looked, and, behold, a door was opened in heaven: and the first voice which I heard was as it were of a trumpet talking with me; which said, Come up hither, and I will shew thee things which must be hereafter. Revelation 4:2 And immediately I was in the spirit: and, behold, a throne was set in heaven, and one sat on the throne. Revelation 4:3 And he that sat was to look upon like a jasper and a sardine stone: and there was a rainbow round about the throne, in sight like unto an emerald. Revelation 4:4 And round about the throne were four and twenty seats: and upon the seats I saw four and twenty elders sitting, clothed in white raiment; and they had on their heads crowns of gold. Revelation 4:5 And out of the throne proceeded lightnings and thunderings and voices: and there were seven lamps of fire burning before the throne, which are the seven Spirits of God. Revelation 4:6 And before the throne there was a sea of glass like unto crystal: and in the midst of the throne, and round about the throne, were four beasts full of eyes before and behind. Revelation 4:7 And the first beast was like a lion, and the second beast like a calf, and the third beast had a face as a man, and the fourth beast was like a flying eagle. Revelation 4:8 ¶And the four beasts had each of them six wings about him; and they were full of eyes within: and they rest not day and night, saying, Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, which was, and is, and is to come. Revelation 4:9 And when those beasts give glory and honour and thanks to him that sat on the throne, who liveth for ever and ever, Revelation 4:10 The four and twenty elders fall down before him that sat on the throne, and worship him that liveth for ever and ever, and cast their crowns before the throne, saying, Revelation 4:11 Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created. {Isaiah 6:1} In the year that king Uzziah died I saw also the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up, and his train filled the temple. {Isaiah 6:2} Above it stood the seraphims: each one had six wings; with twain he covered his face and with twain he covered his feet, and with twain he did fly. {Isaiah 6:3} And one cried unto another, and said, Holy, holy, holy, [is] the LORD of hosts: the whole earth [is] full of his glory. {Isaiah 6:4} And the posts of the door moved at the voice of him that cried, and the house was filled with smoke. {Isaiah 6:5} Then said I, Woe [is] me! for I am undone; because I [am] a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips: for mine eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts. {Isaiah 6:6} Then flew one of the seraphims unto me, having a live coal in his hand, [which] he had taken with the tongs from off the altar: {Isaiah 6:7} And he laid [it] upon my mouth, and said, Lo, this hath touched thy lips; and thine iniquity is taken away, and thy sin purged. Ezekiel 1:1 ¶Now it came to pass in the thirtieth year, in the fourth month,
in the fifth day of the month, as I was among the captives by the river of
Chebar, that the heavens were opened, and I saw visions of God. NE2 16:1 In the year that king Uzziah died, I saw also the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up, and his train filled the temple. NE2 16:2 Above it stood the seraphim; each one had six wings; with twain he covered his face, and with twain he covered his feet, and with twain he did fly. NE2 16:3 And one cried unto another, and said: Holy, holy, holy, is the Lord of Hosts; the whole earth is full of his glory. NE2 16:4 And the posts of the door moved at the voice of him that cried, and the house was filled with smoke. NE2 16:5 Then said I: Wo is unto me! for I am undone; because I am a man of unclean lips; and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips; for mine eyes have seen the King, the Lord of Hosts. NE2 16:6 Then flew one of the seraphim unto me, having a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with the tongs from off the altar; NE2 16:7 And he laid it upon my mouth, and said: Lo, this has touched thy lips; and thine iniquity is taken away, and thy sin purged. Item 22] Status: The existence of the four living creatures had already been confirmed to be essential words of God above in item 21. Copies of the verses, which were cited, are nevertheless shown below. {Revelation 4:6} And
before
the throne [there was] a sea of glass like unto
crystal: and in the
midst of the throne, and rainbow round the throne, [were]
four beasts
full of
eyes before and behind. {Ezekiel 1:5} Also out of the midst thereof
[came] the likeness of four living creatures. And this [was] their
appearance; they had the likeness of a man. {Ezekiel 1:10} As for the likeness of their faces, they four had the face of a man, and the face of a lion, on the right side: and they four had the face of an ox on the left side; they four also had the face of an eagle. {Ezekiel 1:11} Thus [were] their faces: and
their wings [were] stretched upward; two [wings] of every one [were]
joined one to another, and two covered their bodies. {Ezekiel 10:10} And [as for] their appearances, they four had one
likeness, as if a wheel had been in the midst
of a wheel. Item 23] Status: The sea of glass is not confirmed to be essential words of God by these verses. {Revelation 4:6} And
before
the throne [there was] a sea of glass like unto
crystal: and in the
midst of the throne, and rainbow round the throne, [were]
four beasts
full of
eyes before and behind. {Ezekiel 1:22} And the likeness of the firmament upon the heads of the living creature [was] as the colour of the terrible crystal, stretched forth over their heads above. Item 24] Status: the words "Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God Almighty" were confirmed to be essential words of God above in item 21]. The equivalence of the words "Lord God Almighty" to the words "Lord of Hosts" has not yet been confirmed to be essential words of God anywhere. The verses, which were cited, are nevertheless shown below. {Revelation 4:8} And the four beasts had each of them six wings about [him;] and [they were] full of eyes within: and they rest not day and night, saying, Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, which was, and is, and is to come. {Isaiah 6:3} And one cried unto another, and
said,
Holy, holy,
holy, [is] the LORD of hosts: the
whole earth [is]
full of his glory. Item 25] Status: only the phrase "behold which as a lamb of God" is confirmed to be essential by these verses. This phrase was added to the collection of fragments as frag-009. {Revelation 5:6} And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth. {John 1:29} The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world. {Peter-1 1:19} But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot: Item 26] Status: this concept is not confirmed to be essential by these verses. {Revelation 5:12}
Saying
with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power,
and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and
blessing. {John 5:22} For the Father judgeth no man, but hath
committed all judgment unto the Son: Item 27] Status: this concept was already confirmed to be essential without these verses of Revelation which are therefore redundant. All of the cited verses are nevertheless shown below. {Revelation 6:1} And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard,
as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come
and see. Matthew 24:6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. Item 28] Status: this concept was already confirmed to be essential without these verses of Revelation which are therefore redundant. All of the cited verses are nevertheless shown below. {Revelation 6:5} And when he
had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see.
And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair
of balances in his hand. Matthew 24:7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. Item 29] Status: this concept was already confirmed to be essential without these verses of Revelation and this verse of Psalms which are therefore redundant. All of the cited verses are nevertheless shown below. {Revelation 6:7}
And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth
beast say, Come and see. {Psalm 50:3} Our God shall come, and shall not keep silence: a fire shall
devour before him, and it shall be very tempestuous round about Matthew 24:7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. Item 30] Status: the concept that the sun would be darkened was already confirmed to be essential. The verse of Joel is therefore redundant. The concept that the moon turns to blood is not confirmed to be essential by these verses. All of the cited verses are nevertheless shown below. {Revelation 6:12} And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and,
lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth
of hair, and the moon became as blood; Mark 13:24 But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, {Luke 21:25} And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in
the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the {Isaiah 24:23} Then the moon shall be confounded, and the sun ashamed, when the LORD of hosts shall reign in mount Zion, and in Jerusalem, and before his ancients gloriously. {Amos 8:4} Hear this, O ye that swallow up the needy, even to make the poor of the land to fail, A more relevant selection of verses and the result of their comparison are shown below. {Joel 2:31} The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of the LORD come. {Acts 2:20} The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before that great and notable day of the LORD come: {Revelation 6:12} And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood; The words in green below were confirmed to be essential by the green words in the verses above and were added to the collection of fragments as frag-044. The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before great day of the LORD come. Item 31] Status: the concept that the stars fall from the sky was already confirmed to be essential.
