Rev 16:10 | MHM | STEP | v. 10 : The fifth angel pours out his vial on the seat of the beast, which means Rome, the center of the antichrist’s power. Darkness covers the whole kingdom of the beast. The city that once was full of knowledge, riches, and pleasures is now full of confusion, pain, and sorrow. This darkness is like the plague in Egypt and shows shame, loss of honor, and deep suffering for those who followed the beast (Revelation 16:10 ).
