    Revelation 9:1 - 11 Who are these locusts representing?

    I believe that revelation was written before 70AD there is no solid proof when it was written so after 70AD isn't a fact but a view and things change after the 5 months. Joel & Revelation describe the very same thing and Peter tells us when these things happen. Add the fact that Peter Joel...

    Revelation 7: 4-8 The 144000

    Chapter 7: John sees the whole Church (the great multitude), symbolically represented as a group of 144,000. The twelve tribes of Israel are named, but rearranged for symbolic purposes. Judah is placed at the first of the list, because Jesus is the “Lion of Judah”. Dan is removed from the list...

    Revelation 7: 4-8 The 144000

    They are symbolic for the church. Revelation doesn't actually give them a purpose except for being faithful
