Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible

Revelation 10 - Introduction

Revelation 10. The second interlude in the movement of the drama. The sixth trumpet, like the sixth seal, is followed by a pause. Once again the climax is postponed. Revelation 10 and Revelation 11:1 are parenthetical, and the visions which they record are episodes in the main story.
