And they cried with a
loud voice, saying, “How long, O Lord, holy and true, until You judge and
avenge our blood on those who dwell on the earth?”
·
These souls in heaven cry out for vengeance (until You judge and avenge our blood).
We usually don’t think of God’s people crying out for vengeance, but they make
their cry to God, and leave the matter with Him. (DG)
·
When God’s people are persecuted, He will set it
right. It isn’t wrong for God’s people to ask Him to do what He promised to do.
So the blood of Abel cried out from the ground for vengeance (Genesis 4:10), as did the
blood of unavenged murders in the land of Israel (Numbers 35:33). (DG)
