5TH SEAL: MOANERS CRY

​​​

Rev 6:9-11 howls—“Fifth seal splits, souls under the altar scream, slain for truth.” Persecuted cry for justice—Jesus hands them a blade. Matthew 19:10—disciples balk at divorce’s iron grip: “Better skip marriage.” He doesn’t blink, just leans in harder. “Not everyone can stomach this word,” He warns (v11), then rips it wide: “Some eunuchs born that way from their mother’s womb, some hacked by men’s blades, some swear it off for heaven’s raw reign. Get it if your spine can take it” (v12). Three jagged cuts—born different, sliced up, or vowed pure—all ducking women’s beds.

​

Greek bites deep: eunouchos (eunuchs), eunouchizō (emasculated)—fully cut or crushed, not tame celibates. Ancient eyes see transgender shadows—men carved free of manhood, dodging Moses’ “males only” drumbeat (Ex 34:23). Jesus smirks: not every soul’s chained to the old mold—deal with it.
