revelation 6:14 And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.

revelation 6:14 And the sky was split apart like a scroll when it is rolled up; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.

14. departed--Greek, "was separated from" its place; "was made to depart." Not as ALFORD, "parted asunder"; for, on the contrary, it was rolled together as a scroll which had been open is rolled up and laid aside. There is no "asunder one from another" here in the Greek, as in Ac 15:39, which ALFORD copies.
mountain . . . moved out of . . . places-- (Ps 121:1, Margin; Jer 3:23; 4:24; Na 1:5). This total disruption shall be the precursor of the new earth, just as the pre-Adamic convulsions prepared it for its present occupants.

revelation 6:14 And the sky was split apart like a scroll when it is rolled up; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.
