The imagery of the sickle is reminiscent of agricultural practices, specifically the harvest. In biblical times, a sickle was a tool used for reaping crops, symbolizing the gathering of people for judgment. The angel's action signifies a decisive moment where God’s judgment is executed. This imagery is consistent with other biblical passages that describe the end times as a harvest (<a href="/matthew/13-39.htm">Matthew 13:39</a>, <a href="/joel/3-13.htm">Joel 3:13</a>).and gathered the grapes of the earth The grapes symbolize the people who are subject to God's judgment. In the context of Revelation, the earth often represents humanity in its fallen state. The gathering of grapes can be seen as a metaphor for the collection of those who have rejected God. This imagery is also found in the Old Testament, where grapes and vineyards often symbolize Israel and, by extension, those who are unfaithful to God (<a href="/isaiah/5.htm">Isaiah 5:1-7</a>).and he threw them into the great winepress of God’s wrath The winepress is a powerful symbol of judgment and wrath. In ancient times, a winepress was used to crush grapes to extract juice, symbolizing the crushing of those who oppose God. The "great winepress of God’s wrath" indicates the severity and totality of divine judgment. This imagery is echoed in <a href="/isaiah/63-3.htm">Isaiah 63:3</a>, where God is depicted as treading the winepress in anger.

And the winepress was trodden without the city, and there came forth blood out of the winepress as far as the bridles of the horses, from a thousand six hundred furlongs (stadii). The outflow of the blood of the grapes pressed reached over a distance of sixteen hundred stadii. The treading of the winepress was a figure representing vengeance; the red juice of the grape strongly suggested the shedding of blood. (Comp. <a href="/context/isaiah/63-2.htm" title="Why are you red in your apparel, and your garments like him that treads in the winefat?">Isaiah 63:2-4</a>.) The winepresses stood usually outside the city: it is so represented here, not without an allusion to those who fall under the weight of this judgment because they have refused the defence of the true city and sanctuary. (Comp. <a href="/revelation/14-1.htm" title="And I looked, and, see, a Lamb stood on the mount Sion, and with him an hundred forty and four thousand, having his Father's name written in their foreheads.">Revelation 14:1</a> and <a href="/context/psalms/132-17.htm" title="There will I make the horn of David to bud: I have ordained a lamp for my anointed.">Psalm 132:17-18</a>.) The distance (sixteen hundred stadii), i.e., four multiplied into itself and then multiplied by a hundred, is symbolical (such seems the most probable meaning) of a judgment complete and full, and reaching to all corners of the earth--"the whole world, of which Satan is called the prince, is judged, and condemned, and punished" (Dr. Currey). In the vintage and harvest is a piercing discrimination between the faithful fruit-bearing children of the King and the cowardly or selfish, whose hearts are for self and not for Christ, but who yield themselves servants to sin.<div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/pulpit/revelation/14.htm">Pulpit Commentary</a></div>Verse 19. - And the angel thrust in his sickle into the earth, and gathered the vine of the earth. This angel is described in quite a different manner from "him who sat on the cloud" (ver. 16). And cast it into the great wine press of the wrath of God; into the wine press, the great [winepress], etc. The feminine substantive has agreeing with it a masculine adjective. It is doubtful whether we ought to see in this anything more than a mere slip of grammar. Possibly the word is of either gender. It is connected with the festival of Bacchus. Wordsworth, however, accounts for the masculine form of the adjective by supposing that the writer wishes to give a stronger force to the word, and to emphasize the terrible nature of the wrath of God. We have the same image in <a href="/revelation/19-15.htm">Revelation 19:15</a>, and it seems derived from <a href="/isaiah/58.htm">Isaiah 58</a>, and <a href="/lamentations/1-15.htm">Lamentations 1:15</a>. Destruction by an enemy is alluded to as the gathering of grapes in <a href="/isaiah/17-6.htm">Isaiah 17:6</a> and <a href="/jeremiah/49-9.htm">Jeremiah 49:9</a>. The text itself explains the signification of the figure. There seems also some reference in the language to those who "drink of the wine of the wrath of her [Babylon's] fornication" (ver. 8). <a href="/commentaries/revelation/14-19.htm">Parallel Commentaries ...</a> <a name="lexicon" id="lexicon"></a><div class="vheading">Greek</div>[So] Καὶ (Kai) Conjunction <a href="/greek/strongs_2532.htm">Strong's 2532: </a> And, even, also, namely. the ὁ (ho) Article - Nominative Masculine Singular <a href="/greek/strongs_3588.htm">Strong's 3588: </a> The, the definite article.
