Revelation: Chapter 9 Timelines

Setting

Revelation 9:1-21 describes the blowing of the 5th trumpet, which also marks the first of three woes upon the inhabitants of the earth. The blue bar graph is very short horizontally to represent the five-month period during which this event took place, ending abruptly.

The 5th trumpet triggers the first woe of three woes on the world.

In contrast to the 5th trumpet, the 6th trumpet is also blown in this chapter, but its effect on earth lasts through the entire tribulation period.

The following graphic shows the overall timeline of the first six trumpet judgments and the first of three woes.
