Naked Bible 389: Revelation 15-16

Revelation 15 and 16 deal with the seven bowl judgments meted out against all those who follow the

Beast. The passage contains several images drawn from the Old Testament that telegraph the victory of

Jesus and the Father over the Beast and the chaos system of Babylon. This episode explores those

systems and the connections between the bowls and other Old Testament chaos enemies. The effect of

the judgments is to cleanse the earth of chaos, preparing it to once again be sacred space to be re-

occupied by its rightful Lord, the returned Christ.
