Yup- not reading properly.

In Revelation 6:10, the martyrs cry out "How long, O Lord, holy and true, until You judge and avenge our blood on those who dwell on the earth?" This suggests that the martyrs have been waiting for God to judge and avenge them for some time1. In Daniel 8:13, an angel asks "How long will the...
