Who receives the white robes in Revelation 6:11?
The white robes in Revelation 6:11 are given to every one of those who had been martyred for their faith. They are told to rest for a little season until their fellow servants and brethren, who would be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.
Les explains that John sees these martyred ones in a prophetic light. The white robes are given to every one of them—those who had been martyred for their faith. They are told to rest yet for a little season, until their fellow servants and brethren who should be killed as they were should be fulfilled. Les notes this is part of the fifth seal. He then moves to the sixth seal, where a great earthquake occurs, one of the things Jesus mentioned in Matthew 24 along with famines, pestilences, and earthquakes in diverse places.
And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.
