**The seven sealed scroll in Revelation is a divorce decree:**
Leviticus 26:18: “And if in spite of this you will not listen to me, then I will discipline you again sevenfold for your sins.”
Connection to Revelation’s 7-Sealed Scroll:
The seven seals, seven trumpets, and seven bowls in Revelation can be seen as a pattern of escalating judgments, like those listed in Leviticus 26.
Each set of 7 judgments grows in intensity — just as Leviticus 26 warns of repeated, intensified punishment for covenant breaking.
The scroll in Revelation 5 may symbolically represent a covenantal indictment or legal document, possibly like a divorce decree (Jer 3:8), or a curse document (cf. Zechariah 5).
This three-part series by Ken Gentry on Revelation is good, the second one is where he gives a ton of scripture showing Jerusalem became the whore of Babylon and was condemned to death with Christians being the new bride dressed in white.

John eats a scroll right before 70AD just as Ezekiel eats a scroll before the judgment against them 586BC.
