God's temple that is in heaven was opened, and the ark of the Lord's covenant was seen in his temple. Lightnings, sounds, thunders, an earthquake, and great hail followed.
Two prophets – Lenin and Stalin. Their theory of communism involved the education of the new man. A person who is ready to give his all to a common cause. A person who is ready for the sake of others to give up his selfish desires, from base instincts. This idea was actually implemented in the form of a struggle against survivals, a struggle against the insufficient consciousness of citizens. Bourgeois consumer morality was considered extremely dangerous in the theory of communism. Also, the theory of communism assumed, in the end, the withering away of the state.
Clothed in sackcloth – Lenin and Stalin fundamentally differed from the tsars and kings who preceded them, and from the presidents of our time, in that they led a very modest material way of life.
And they will prophesy one thousand two hundred sixty days – three and a half years, just a little more than three and a half years, the Civil War and the Great Patriotic War lasted. Here, extra duration is gained due to peaceful downtime, respite during the war (like extra time in football).
One thousand two hundred and sixty days – is a symbol of this event.
SL – Stalin and Lenin. SL – Socialist Camp. SL – the dominance of the ideology of Socialism. We say "one thousand two hundred and sixty days" – we mean SL. We say SL, we mean "one thousand two hundred and sixty days." SL – from now on, this is how we will abbreviate this event.
Leave out the court which is outside of the temple, and don't measure it, for it has been given to the nations. They will tread the holy city under foot for forty-two months. – Here "measure" means to outline the border. The border of the temple here are the borders of the socialist camp. The pagans are outside the border of this camp.
When they have finished their testimony, the beast that comes up out of the abyss will make war with them, and overcome them, and kill them. – The beast is not the reason for the completion of their sermon, they finish the sermon of their own free will, because everything they wanted to say, they have already said something they have nothing more to say.
The beast that comes up out of the abyss will make war with them, and overcome them, and kill them. – The nascent European Union. Both wars were fought against him. There is no evidence that the West directly killed Lenin and Stalin, but there is no doubt that he very much wanted them dead. The victory of the beast here means the collapse of the Soviet Union, this is the end of the SL period.
Their dead bodies will be in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also their Lord was crucified. From among the peoples, tribes, languages, and nations people will look at their dead bodies for three and a half days, and will not allow their dead bodies to be laid in a tomb. – The mausoleum.
The great city, where also their Lord was crucified – is Moscow.
Where also their Lord was crucified – John testifies of another, non-canonical ascent to the cross of the Savior. It is naive to believe that in two thousand years the Savior could not come down to earth again. The word "crucified" is used here not in the literal sense, but in the sense that "was executed". This time "Christ was crucified" by Christians.
Sodom – is a place of debauchery.
Egypt – is the place of captivity of the chosen people.
Those who dwell on the earth rejoice over them, and they will be glad – pagans, a population with an average level of spirituality.
People will look at their dead bodies for three and a half days – a symbol for the period from the collapse of the SL to the ascent of the SL to the sky (radical modernization of the SL). Immediately after the collapse of the USSR, the question of reburial of Lenin's body began to rise frequently and almost constantly.
After the three and a half days, the breath of life from God entered into them, and they stood on their feet. Great fear fell on those who saw them. – The revival of the pro-communist liberation movement.
"Stood" – stood up, rebelled, revolted, the people revolted, carrying the image of Stalin and Lenin on the banners.
They went up into heaven – the modernization of the communist theory and its popularity among the population with a high spiritual level.
In the cloud – support for the SL, support for the modernized communist theory by the saints. The emergence of saints among the followers of the new communist theory.
I heard a loud voice from heaven saying to them, "Come up here!" They went up into heaven in the cloud, and their enemies saw them. In that day there was a great earthquake, and a tenth of the city fell. Seven thousand people were killed in the earthquake, and the rest were terrified, and gave glory to the God of heaven. – An earthquake in Moscow over the burial of Lenin's body in January 2024. Noticing that the population is starting to look more and more at the SL, the authorities will rush to remove Lenin's body from the mausoleum. The population with a mundane spiritual level usually thinks symbolically. For this type of thinking, the very fact of burying Lenin's body has a symbolic meaning. "They buried Lenin, so they buried socialism itself." Therefore, the burial of Lenin's body will lead to a dying interest in the SL and a drop in support for the SL from the landed part of the population. The population with a high spiritual level usually thinks conceptually. For this celestial part of the population, the very fact of the burial of the body does not mean anything. Not that the SL is correct, nor that the SL is not correct. Thus, it turns out that the SL for some "ascended to heaven", while for others they perished. And it happened almost simultaneously. With an earthquake here, God punishes the authorities that buried the SL, and also God punishes the mundane population, which buried the SL in their minds.
The second woe is past. Behold, the third woe comes quickly – the Second World War has passed, the Third World War is coming soon.
Seventh trumpet – is the birth of a wife.
The red dragon is the devil (ch. 12)
Chapter 12
A great sign was seen in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars. She was with child. She cried out in pain, laboring to give birth. Another sign was seen in heaven. Behold, a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and on his heads seven crowns. His tail drew one third of the stars of the sky, and threw them to the earth. The dragon stood before the woman who was about to give birth, so that when she gave birth he might devour her child. She gave birth to a son, a male child, who is to rule all the nations with a rod of iron. Her child was caught up to God, and to his throne. The woman fled into the wilderness, where she has a place prepared by God, that there they may nourish her one thousand two hundred sixty days.
There was war in the sky. Michael and his angels made war on the dragon. The dragon and his angels made war. They didn't prevail, neither was a place found for him any more in heaven. The great dragon was thrown down, the old serpent, he who is called the devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world. He was thrown down to the earth, and his angels were thrown down with him. I heard a loud voice in heaven, saying, "Now is come the salvation, the power, and the Kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Christ; for the accuser of our brothers has been thrown down, who accuses them before our God day and night. They overcame him because of the Lamb's blood, and because of the word of their testimony. They didn't love their life, even to death. Therefore rejoice, heavens, and you who dwell in them. Woe to the earth and to the sea, because the devil has gone down to you, having great wrath, knowing that he has but a short time."
