Chapter Thirty/"Babylon the Great Has Fallen!" - Treading the Vine of the Earth - Continue

 The visionary treading done by horses, for the blood trodden out from the vine reaches "the bridles of the horses." Since the term "horses" usually refers to war operations, the must be a time of war. The armies of the heavens that follow Jesus into the final war against Satan's system of things are said to read "the winepress of the anger of the wrath of God the Almighty." (Revelation 19:11-16) These are clearly the ones that do the treading of the vine of the vine of the earth. The "winepress is "trodden outside the city," that is, outside heavenly Zion. Indeed, it is fitting that the vine of the earth should be trodden on earth. But it will also be "trodden outside the city" in that no harm will come to the remaining ones of the woman's seed, who can represent the heavenly Zion on earth. These together with the great crowd will be safely hidden within Jehovah's earthly organizational arrangement. - ISAIAH 26:20, 21.
