And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held:
Cuando se abrió el quinto sello, pude ver bajo el altar las almas de las personas que habían sido asesinadas porque defendieron la palabra de Dios y se negaron a renunciar a lo que creían acerca de él.
Juan vio las almas de los mártires que murieron por defender fielmente la palabra de Dios y su testimonio.
📚 Contexto Histórico
The Book of Revelation was written by the Apostle John during a time of severe persecution of early Christians under the Roman Empire, likely around AD 95 during Emperor Domitian's reign. In this apocalyptic vision, the opening of the fifth seal reveals the souls of martyrs who had been killed for their faithfulness to God's word and their testimony, emphasizing God's remembrance of their sacrifices. This imagery reflects ancient Jewish temple practices, where the altar symbolized divine protection and justice for the faithful.
