Angels are often depicted as messengers or agents of God's will throughout the Bible. In Revelation, they play crucial roles in executing divine judgments and delivering messages. The presence of multiple angels emphasizes the organized and purposeful nature of God's plan.<p><b>with authority over the fire</b><br>This angel's authority over fire suggests a role in judgment or purification, as fire is frequently associated with these themes in Scripture. In the Old Testament, fire is often a symbol of God's presence and judgment, such as in the burning bush (<a href="/exodus/3-2.htm">Exodus 3:2</a>) or the fire that consumed Sodom and Gomorrah (<a href="/genesis/19-24.htm">Genesis 19:24</a>). This authority indicates the angel's significant role in the unfolding events.<p><b>came from the altar</b><br>The altar is a central element in the heavenly temple imagery found in Revelation. It recalls the altar of incense in the earthly tabernacle and temple, where prayers were offered to God (<a href="/exodus/30.htm">Exodus 30:1-10</a>). In Revelation, the altar is associated with the prayers of the saints (<a href="/revelation/8-3.htm">Revelation 8:3-5</a>) and the place where the souls of the martyrs cry out for justice (<a href="/revelation/6-9.htm">Revelation 6:9-11</a>). This connection underscores the theme of divine justice and the fulfillment of God's promises.<p><b>and called out in a loud voice</b><br>The loud voice signifies urgency and authority, ensuring that the message is heard and heeded. In biblical literature, a loud voice often accompanies significant announcements or commands, as seen in the proclamations of prophets and angels (e.g., <a href="/isaiah/40-3.htm">Isaiah 40:3</a>, <a href="/revelation/5-2.htm">Revelation 5:2</a>).<p><b>to the angel with the sharp sickle</b><br>The sharp sickle is a tool for harvesting, symbolizing the act of reaping or gathering. In the context of Revelation, it represents the execution of divine judgment. The imagery of harvest is used throughout Scripture to depict the gathering of people for judgment or salvation (e.g., <a href="/matthew/13-30.htm">Matthew 13:30</a>, <a href="/joel/3-13.htm">Joel 3:13</a>).<p><b>“Swing your sharp sickle and gather the clusters of grapes</b><br>This command to swing the sickle and gather grapes evokes the imagery of a harvest, specifically a grape harvest. In biblical times, the grape harvest was a significant agricultural event, often associated with joy and celebration. However, in prophetic literature, it can also symbolize judgment, as seen in the "winepress of God's wrath" (<a href="/revelation/14-19.htm">Revelation 14:19-20</a>).<p><b>from the vine of the earth</b><br>The "vine of the earth" contrasts with the "true vine," which is Jesus Christ (<a href="/john/15.htm">John 15:1</a>). This phrase suggests a worldly or ungodly source, indicating that the grapes to be gathered are those who are not aligned with God's kingdom. The vine imagery is rich in biblical symbolism, often representing Israel or God's people (<a href="/isaiah/5.htm">Isaiah 5:1-7</a>), but here it signifies those ripe for judgment.<p><b>because its grapes are ripe.”</b><br>The ripeness of the grapes indicates that the time for judgment has come. In biblical terms, ripeness often signifies readiness or completion, whether for blessing or judgment. This concept is echoed in other prophetic passages, such as <a href="/joel/3-13.htm">Joel 3:13</a>, where the harvest is ripe for judgment. The ripeness underscores the inevitability and appropriateness of the impending divine action.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/a/another_angel.htm">Another Angel</a></b><br>This angel is distinct from the previous ones mentioned in <a href="/bsb/revelation/14.htm">Revelation 14</a>. He has authority over fire, indicating a role in judgment or purification.<br><br>2. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_altar.htm">The Altar</a></b><br>The altar is a significant place in the heavenly temple, often associated with the prayers of the saints and the presence of God.
