Understanding how prophesy tend to be delivered to men throughout the Bible helps you to see the bigger picture about the Book of Revelation. The prophecy tends to be delivered several times using different imagery. The Book of Revelation has several groups of Seven. The first set of Seven seems to be for the churches around at the time of the author, but the 7 Seals, the 7 Trumpets and the 7 Bowls or vials are repeating the same series of events seen using different methods of focus. The 7 seals are 7 releases, the 7 Trumpets are 7 warnings and the 7 Bowls are 7 reaping's. So an angel breaks a seal, next an angel blows a trumpet which warns by way of a sign in the heavens and for those who do not head the warning, an angel administers a disaster. All of which is going to be aimed at getting the world and more specifically the Hebrew remnant to repent.
