10 x 10 x 10

Brian,

I appreciate your words and insights. I can see that 10 repeated 3 times is like the three witnesses who testify "Holy, Holy, Holy." So "10 x 10 x 10" can be completeness of /or from GOD. Building on what you have said, I read the following passage this morning on the events that transpire after the resurrection and rapture of the two witnesses in the Book of Revelations.

"At that very hour there was a severe earthquake and a tenth of the city collapsed. Seven thousand people were killed in the earthquake, and the survivors were terrified and gave glory to the God of heaven." (Rev 11:13)

So I was wondering, if the number "ten" has significance, what is the significance of "one-tenth"? Since the number of people killed, 7000, is 7 x 10 x 10 x 10, does the number imply a greater destruction or complete destruction of some people or area? There were "survivors" so not everyone is killed.

Pray you are having a safe trip to Camp Wood.

Scott
