Revelation 16:8 - Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Bible Comments

The fourth poured out his phial upon the sun — Which was likewise affected by the fourth trumpet. There is also a plain resemblance between the first, second, and third phials, and the first, second, and third trumpet. And it was given him — The angel. To scorch the men — Who had the mark of the beast. With fire — As well as with the beams of the sun. So these four phials affected earth, water, fire, and air.

Revelation 16:8

8 And the fourth angel poured out his vial upon the sun; and power was given unto him to scorch men with fire.
