Chapter 8 is the 7th seal, and it's speaking about the seals, Angels, and trumpets(of deception) that came before them and what happens in them.
Beginning in v7 is what happens in the first trumpet of deception, sounding now and during the hour of temptation, the consumer stage of when the locust army appears on earth and kills 1/3 of people spiritually... trees in the verse is symbolic of people,,, the trumpets are trumpets of deception,,, people are deceived into believing the anti-christ is the true Christ(the rapture), and when we worship or follow other than the true Christ, we die a spiritual death.
9:4 is when those(trees)who have received the seal of God are protected from the trumpets of deception, and The Locust Army that appears on earth during that time.
Here's some things I would like to share with you. Revelation 8:6 to Chapter 11 Verse 19 gives us the description of the 7 trumpets. Revelation 8:7 is the first trumpet. The first angel sounded, and there followed hail and fire mingled with blood. It's becoming very intense! And they were cast upon the earth: and 1/3 of the trees was burnt up, as well as the grass, or green vegetation.
Only 1/3 of the trees was burnt up, so any grass that was below those trees would burn also. That would be 1/3 of the grass in that area. To make sense of Revelation 9:4, we would have to believe that not all grass on the entire earth was burnt up because it tells us the locusts were commanded not to hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing or any tree.
Here's what fascinates me. Why would God command these locusts not to hurt the green vegetation? It's because these things are the locusts' natural food. These locusts would quickly die out without the vegetation to sustain them, and God's plan was for them to live and torment those men which have not the seal of God in their foreheads.
Revelation 9:5 says that they were to torment them for five months. Something else that's interesting is why five months? Well, five months is the actual lifespan of a locust, from May through December.
As for Revelation 22:18-19, Verse 18 is basically telling us that there are no more "new prophecies" after the book of Revelation. Anyone adding more is adding to the book. Revelation 22:19 says "if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life."
Please notice that it doesn't say the book of the Lamb. God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book. We don't want to take away from the book of Revelation and make it be something else rather than what it is. It is the Revelation of Jesus Christ.
then Ch 9:4 not to hurt the grass and trees
Ch. 22:18-19 Who will get added plagues and who will have taken away his part out of book of life?
