  1. Revelation 6:11 As before 3:4.
  2. Revelation 6:11 Until their number be fulfilled.
  3. Revelation 6:12 The sixth sign, the narration whereof hath two parts, the sign, and the event.

So boldly do all creatures depend upon the will of God, and content themselves in his glory.
  4. Revelation 6:12 So they called in old time those woven works that were of hair.
