Revelation 9

In Short - Interpretation

Fallen star - the devil, the dragon that was cast to earth in Revelation 12 - estimated at April 2024 - the third great eclipse over his empire, the US

Key to the pit of the abyss - The giving of breath to the image of the beast - making it autonomous through AI, relating it to the spiritual world of demons - estimated to succeed at the midst of 2026.

Pit of the abyss - Underground facility in Israel with 'the image of the beast' - the worldwide digital surveillance and control system - 

Smoke out of the pit - The total destruction of the cities of the state of Israel after an all-out war with Iran, starting around the midst of 2026

Locusts - Agents of the beast system, trying to politically sell the mark of the beast to all populations worldwide, possessed with fallen angels from before the flood

Sting - Mark of the beast, labeling people to the beast system and thereby to the lake of fire for eternity

Angel of the abyss - Angel = messenger - The beast out of the earth, the state of Israel, which will communicate the worldwide control system therefore also called 'the false prophet'. He is named Abaddon (Hebrew - destroyer) and Apollyon (Greek - destruction), which is an exact description of the destructive state of Israel, devastating the complete Middle East.

Four angels, bound at the river Euphrates - Four angelic princes of the four empires Babel-Persia-Greece-Rome that were all defeated by the Lord

200 Armies of horses - Military power to totally subdue the earth's population to the mark of the beast, which either is deployed with the tails (like serpents, bringing harm) or killing follows with fire from the mouthes

The rest of mankind, not killed by these plagues, are given over to the most evil idolatry and misconduct ever seen on earth for they became part of the beast system.

In Short - Explanation

Trumpets 5 & 6 are no judgments coming from heaven, like the first four. They come from below - the pit of the abyss - the Euphrates - and are related by one important word: "harm". The locusts of trumpet 5 - do harm with their tails; the horses of trumpet 6 - do harm with their tails - like snakes. Both administer the mark of the beast: locusts as political agens, horses as military agents. That is why the beast 'ascends from the abyss'. Those accepting the mark won't be killed. Those not killed accepted the mark and they became worshipers of the beast and thus they commit all evil that goes with it.

The fifth trumpet of Revelation 9 shows the devil as fallen to earth, like a star, with the key of the pit of the abyss in his possession. This is the result of events that will have taken place in the 5 years before the sounding of the fifth trumpet. The smoke, coming out of the pit refers to the completely devastated land of Israel after an all-out war with Iran. Out of the smoke of the abyss, an underground facility within destroyed Israel, the 'locusts', agents of the beast, will go out over the world in order to subject every citizen of every country to the beast system. The agents result from the devastation of Israel. Their actions are coördinated from the 'pit', the underground command  center. As we have shown in other pages, the beast is the USA with all its vassals. Once the dust of the last world war has settled and the USA has established itself again as the world's hegemon, nothing will stop it from exerting totalitarian control in order to never let it slip away again.

The socio-political attack on humanity by the swarm of locusts will last five months. It is followed by a millitary suppression with the most brutal force ever seen, which will last for about 13 months. Two hundered enormous armies are sent out all over the world in order to force everyone into the digital beast-system. The armies are seen as horses with heads of lions and tails like serpents. With their mouthes they spew fire, smoke and brimstone and with their tails they inflict 'harm', the mark of the beast which will cause eternal damnation. One third of society is killed by the military violence while the remaining two thirds is linked to the beast system, going against everything that God has forbidden.

The casting down of the dragon (=the devil) on earth probably took place in 2023/2024 and the abomination of desolation we expect to take place around the summer of 2026. The total destruction of the land of Israel that follows, could be the 'smoke out of the pit of the abyss'. The resemblance of the smoke of a furnace makes one think of the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah (Gen.19:28) - a term which in Revelation 11:8 is used to describe the spiritual character of the state of Israel.

It will be the digital monetary system that will function as a tool of total control by the rulers of this world. The central bankers were the ones that forced the foundation of the state of Israel and manipulated its development into a police-state of total surveillance and control. 

This is how Revelation 13:7,8 describes it: 'and power was given him over all peoples, and tongues, and nations. 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.'
