Revelation 6:12-14

→Bible→New Testament→Revelation

RSV

¹² When he opened the sixth seal, I looked, and behold, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth, the full moon became like blood, ¹³ and the stars of the sky fell to the earth as the fig tree sheds its winter fruit when shaken by a gale; ¹⁴ the sky vanished like a scroll that is rolled up, and every mountain and island was removed from its place.

Compare the way the sky is rolled up in this vision with the normal language used of the sky stretched out as a tent. See Unfurling the Heavens.
