And they were not given authority to kill them, but to torment them for five months. Their torment was like the torment of a scorpion when it strikes a man.
· The hurt they were to do them was not a bodily, but a spiritual hurt (MH)
· Their purpose and period is expressly governed by God, and the purpose of all this to bring repentance (Revelation 9:20-21). (DG)
Proverbs 29:2 When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice, but when a wicked man rules, the people groan.
Isaiah 50:11 Look, all you who kindle a fire, who encircle yourselves with sparks; walk in the light of your fire and in the sparks you have kindled – this you have from My hand; you shall lie down in torment.
