If the sealed book is the book of life:
– Why are God’s judgments not understood?
– Why could God not explain His judgments?
– Why was Jesus not “worthy” to open the book before His death?
– How did His death make Him worthy?
God does explain His judgments, but to judge between people is extremely complex, and the heavenly beings are unable to refute all of Satan’s informed accusations against the people God had chosen.

The seventh seal is the Return of Christ – Revelation 8:1

This seal is very brief. In a single brief verse, it simply says that there will be silence in heaven for half an hour. On the basis of the context, this article interprets it as the sorrow in heaven when the lost are put to death at the return of Christ.
