|Apocalipse 17:3|
Then the angel carried me away in the Spirit into a desert. There I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast that was covered with blasphemous names and had seven heads and ten horns. 66:17:4 The woman was dressed in purple and scarlet, and was glittering with gold, precious stones and pearls. She held a golden cup in her hand, filled with abominable things and the filth of her adulteries. 66:17:5 This title was written on her forehead: MYSTERY BABYLON THE GREAT THE MOTHER OF PROSTITUTES AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH. 66:17:6 I saw that the woman was drunk with the blood of the saints, the blood of those who bore testimony to Jesus. When I saw her, I was greatly astonished. 66:17:7 Then the angel said to me: “Why are you astonished? I will explain to you the mystery of the woman and of the beast she rides, which has the seven heads and ten horns. 66:17:8 The beast, which you saw, once was, now is not, and will come up out of the Abyss and go to his destruction. The inhabitants of the earth whose names have not been written in the book of life from the creation of the world will be astonished when they see the beast, because he once was, now is not, and yet will come. 66:17:9 “This calls for a mind with wisdom. The seven heads are seven hills on which the woman sits. 66:17:10 They are also seven kings. Five have fallen, one is, the other has not yet come; but when he does come, he must remain for a little while. 66:17:11 The beast who once was, and now is not, is an eighth king. He belongs to the seven and is going to his destruction. 66:17:12 “The ten horns you saw are ten kings who have not yet received a kingdom, but who for one hour will receive authority as kings along with the beast.

|Apocalipse 17:13|
They have one purpose and will give their power and authority to the beast. 66:17:14 They will make war against the Lamb, but the Lamb will overcome them because he is Lord of lords and King of kings — and with him will be his called, chosen and faithful followers.” 66:17:15 Then the angel said to me, “The waters you saw, where the prostitute sits, are peoples, multitudes, nations and languages. 66:17:16 The beast and the ten horns you saw will hate the prostitute. They will bring her to ruin and leave her naked; they will eat her flesh and burn her with fire. 66:17:17 For God has put it into their hearts to accomplish his purpose by agreeing to give the beast their power to rule, until God’s words are fulfilled. 66:17:18 The woman you saw is the great city that rules over the kings of the earth.” 66:18:1 After this I saw another angel coming down from heaven. He had great authority, and the earth was illuminated by his splendour. 66:18:2 With a mighty voice he shouted: “Fallen! Fallen is Babylon the Great! She has become a home for demons and a haunt for every evil [Greek: unclean] spirit, a haunt for every unclean and detestable bird. 66:18:3 For all the nations have drunk the maddening wine of her adulteries. The kings of the earth committed adultery with her, and the merchants of the earth grew rich from her excessive luxuries.” 66:18:4 Then I heard another voice from heaven say: “Come out of her, my people, so that you will not share in her sins, so that you will not receive any of her plagues;

SALMOS 81-85
Hoje, temos cinco salmos propostos para nossa leitura diária: Salmos 81-85. Quero apresentar a você uma breve introdução a cada um deles, feita pelo comentário bíblico Moody.
Um hino de louvor introduz o Salmo 81, e um pronunciamento profético o conclui. A mudança abrupta no fim do versículo 5 tem sugerido a muitos comentaristas que fragmentos de dois salmos foram reunidos aqui. Contudo, esse ponto de vista não é imperativo, pois um festival solene seria a ocasião para tal recital do relacionamento de Deus com Israel. O termo especial para o festival, o tocar da trombeta, as referências à lua nova e à lua cheia provavelmente fornecem uma dupla referência do poema à Festa das Trombetas e à Festa dos Tabernáculos.
Uma cena do julgamento da injustiça foi apresentada no didático poema que constitui o salmo 81. Sua devida interpretação repousa sobre a identidade do segundo “Elohim” que aparece no versículo um. Alguns comentaristas o traduzem literalmente como deuses e o relacionam a um conceito de deuses subordinados em um conselho celestial. Outros o traduzem como anjos e o ligam a um conceito menos politeísta. Outros intérpretes ainda traduzem-no como juízes e o fazem referir-se aos homens injustos com autoridade. Esta última interpretação parece a preferível.
O Salmo 83 é uma lamentação nacional típica em tempo de grande perigo. Considerando que os inimigos de Israel eram automaticamente os inimigos de Deus, o nome de Deus (Yahweh) está em jogo. A ocasião não pode ser identificada com certeza; ainda desconhecemos um período da história de Israel onde tenha existido tal confederação de nações. O salmo talvez se refira a um acontecimento não registrado em outro lugar qualquer da história de Israel ou, talvez, se refira a grupos tribais que simplesmente deram apoio moral em um período de crise.
Salmo 84: Esse é o cântico de um peregrino cujo alvo é quase atingido. Através de tudo, ele tem um sentimento de paz e comunhão que transcende o ritual e outros aspectos externos do culto. Embora o poema reflita os sentimentos dos peregrinos de qualquer período, parece que vem do período da monarquia em uma ocasião quando o templo ainda estava de pé.
Já o salmo 85, embora seja basicamente um lamento nacional, tem um forte elemento profético também. Apesar de que em sua primeira parte (versos 1-3) pareça referir-se a um retorno à liberdade, esses versículos são idealizados além da situação conhecida naqueles dias. O salmista usa essa figura ideal para mostrar o forte contraste entre o presente e a certeza do futuro.
Esses comentários foram gerais. Agora, faça você, leitor, um comentário verso por verso desses salmos.
