The seventh seal covers the pages of the other six seals. The seventh seal must be broken first to unroll the scroll. The seventh seal contains the description of the seven trumpets, but you must remember how to understand doctrine. Yesha'Yah/Isaiah 28:9 – 11 is the key to this understanding, specifically the phrase “…here a little, and there a little…” in verse 10:

Yesha'Yah: 28:9: Whom shall HE teach knowledge?  and whom shall HE make to understand doctrine?  them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts.

Yesha'Yah: 28:10: For precept must be on precept, precept on precept; line on line, line on line; here a little, and there a little:

Yesha'Yah: 28:11: For with stammering lips and another tongue will HE speak to this people.

“Here a little, and there a little”  means here a little in scripture a there a little in scripture. YaHVeH does not give scriptural understanding in a nice neat order like we would like it. The Eternal makes us dig for understanding. We have to study; we have to put our hearts in it (II Timothy 2:15). And as we grow and mature HE slowly opens up the understanding of scriptures to us (T`hiyliym/Psalms 25:14). The book of Revelation/Raz Galah/Secrets Revealed follows the same pattern of understanding doctrine that was laid out in Yesha'Yah. The book of Revelation is not laid out in a nice neat order like we would like to have it. It’s laid out so that those whose heart is not right and committed cannot understand it. If your heart is not right you will become very frustrated when you read the book of Revelation. You will be like those that were following Yahshua and when He began to speak in parables they could not understand. Those that could not understand became frustrated and stopped following Yahshua (Matthew 13; Yahn 6:60, 66). You must remember the Emissaries did not totally understand what Yahshua spoke to them, but they continued following Him anyway. Yahshua would than open up the understanding of the Parable to them after the crowds had left (Matith`Yah 13:11).

As I said the seventh seal has to be removed before the other six seals can be removed. This is the only way right now I can understand and see it. This scroll in my mind is like sheets of paper rolled up on top of one another. The first seal is on top than the second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh. The seventh seal is on the bottom, when you roll the scroll up the seventh seal is on the outside and covers all the other seals (see illustration). The seventh seal adds more understanding to the other six seals. It is in the seventh seal YaHVeH list the seven Shophariym/Trumpets. Each trumpet correlates with its numeric seal.

The columns below is to help you in your studies, it in no way is an exhaustive list of all the scriptures that are related to the seals and shophariym in the Tenachk and Messianic Writings.
