Revelation 11:5

And if anyone wants to harm them, fire proceeds from their mouth and devours their enemies.  And if anyone wants to harm them, he must be killed in this manner.

·        The two witnesses have special protection from God, similar to Elijah’s in 2 Kings 1.  (DG)

·        God makes their inspired denunciations of judgment to come to pass and devour their enemies. (JFB)

Numbers 16:35  And a fire came out from the LORD and consumed the two hundred and fifty men who were offering incense.

Jeremiah 5:14  Therefore thus says the LORD God of hosts:  “Because you speak this word, behold, I will make My words in your mouth fire, and this people wood, and it shall devour them.
