Revelation 15:1
French (La Bible expliquée)
Puis je vis dans le ciel un autre signe, grand et merveilleux: sept anges qui tenaient sept fléaux. Ce sont les derniers fléaux, car ils sont l'expression finale de la colère de Dieu. La victoire de l'Agneau constitue le sommet et le terme de l'histoire. A la suite de l'Agneau victorieux, et à l'image des Hébreux qui ont échappé à la servitude de l'Égypte, les chrétiens ont traversé la mer des épreuves pour entrer dans le lieu préparé par Dieu. La deuxième partie de leur cantique annonce que les nations renonceront à leur hostilité actuelle et reconnaîtront, un jour, le bien fondé de l'intervention de Dieu.
