Chapter 8 - 7 seal 7 trumps

7th seal

Silence - from an unexpected shock. But what is this?
From a joyful pause, there is a second, then a burst of laughter, exclamations.
From misfortune - a crying cry. This is something that was not expected at all, what was not ready for.

5th seal	the souls of the dead for God's Word,
6th seal	natural disasters,
7th seal	silence for ~ half an hour.

7 trumps

Only it came to the 7th seal, as now 7 trumps. A similar story we already saw in the book of Joshua:

Jos 6:2-3 And the LORD said unto Joshua, See, I have given into thine hand Jericho, and the king thereof, and the mighty men of valour.
3 And ye shall compass the city, all ye men of war, and go round about the city once. Thus shalt thou do six days.

It's like another layer of cake. The second level is deeper. There are several such levels in the book of revelation.

incense – prayers

Rev 5:8 … twenty elders fell down before the Lamb, having every one of them harps, and golden vials full of odors, which are the prayers of saints.

Act 10:4 … Thy prayers and thine alms are come up for a memorial before God.

Today, in the world, people participate in elections of power, then the government reigns on its own, as it sees fit. Here, the church participates in the construction of God's Kingdom - a fantasy! But what do we see? Now this is really a penalty, so what did the church pray for?
