The study then delves into the significance of the fifth seal, which reveals the souls of martyrs slain for their faith under the altar, symbolizing their call for divine justice. The notion of resting until the final judgment and the symbolic nature of blood crying out for justice is explored. Emphasis is placed on the need for Christians to remain faithful, even in persecution, akin to the historical martyrs. The sixth seal is described through cosmic disturbances, historical events like the Lisbon earthquake, and other celestial phenomena that signal the eventual second coming of Christ.
