SEV Biblia, Chapter 9:12
El primer ¡Ay! es pasado; he aquí, vienen an dos ayes despus de estas cosas.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Revelation 9:12
Verse 12. One wo is past] That is, the wo or desolation by the symbolical scorpions. There came two woes more] In the trumpets of the sixth and seventh angels.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 12. One woe is past , etc.] One of the three woe trumpets, the first of them; that is, in the vision which John had of it, not the thing itself designed by it: [and] behold there come two woes more hereafter ; under the blowing of the sixth and seventh trumpets.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 1-12 - Upon sounding the fifth trumpet, a star fell from heaven to the earth Having ceased to be a minister of Christ, he who is represented by thi star becomes the minister of the devil; and lets loose the powers of hell against the churches of Christ. On the opening of the bottomles pit, there arose a great smoke. The devil carries on his designs be blinding the eyes of men, by putting out light and knowledge, an promoting ignorance and error. Out of this smoke there came a swarm of locusts, emblems of the devil's agents, who promote superstition idolatry, error, and cruelty. The trees and the grass, the tru believers, whether young or more advanced, should be untouched. But secret poison and infection in the soul, should rob many others of purity, and afterwards of peace. The locusts had no power to hurt thos who had the seal of God. God's all-powerful, distinguishing grace wil keep his people from total and final apostacy. The power is limited to a short season; but it would be very sharp. In such events the faithfu share the common calamity, but from the pestilence of error they migh and would be safe. We collect from Scripture, that such errors were to try and prove the Christians, 1Co 11:19. And early writers plainl refer this to the first great host of corrupters who overspread the Christian church.
