Genesis’ Creation of Seven Days Reproduced in the

Seven Heavenly Angels’ Messages of Revelation


The seven days of creation in Genesis are repeated in form in Revelation’s
apocalyptic seven heavenly messages. Revelation’s seven messages are a new
creation springing from the Genesis’ days. You can’t have the latter without firstly
applying the former. Antitype is always based on type leading to the final
archetype. Once the Revelators saw the antitypical fulfillment in the Gospels they
were then able, in symbolic language, to prophecy the great final archetypes. Here
are the seven eminent messages.

The Book of Revelation is a book of sevens (angels, trumpets, plagues, messages)


reflecting endless ebbing of seven days of a creation. The seven festivals of the
temple (Passover, Unleavened Bread, Pentecost, Feast of Trumpets, Atonement,
Feast of Tabernacles, and Feast of Dedication) are a continuum.
Creation/evolution being in the likeness of God is the materialization of the
noumenal world, the abstract made concrete. The allegorical is resounding as a
new age in Biblical interpretation and grasping the typical reflection through the
seven festivals of the temple enables the book of Revelation to become a new
enlightenment ready to be explored.
