John's vision now delves into a description of "The Great Tribulation". This is a period of time between the first and second coming of Christ, but specifically a seven-year period of trial near the end. This vision needs careful dissection to understand the symbolism behind this tribulation, the Abomination of Desolation, and the regathering of Israel. Daniel 9 is used as a reference to help aid this.
