Here the nouns day and year are put in by apposition, the noun year being explanatory of the noun day, and establishing our proposition beyond the possibility of successful contradiction. Isa. lxiii, 4 is also explicit: "For the day of vengeance is in my heart, and the year of my redeemed is come."
The Lord will come at the close of the time of trouble; for
under the sixth plague he says, "Behold I come as a thief." It is also under this plague that the spirits of devils, working miracles, go to the kings of the earth and to the whole world to gather them to the battle of the great day, in which Christ will take a part at his coming. Rev. xvi, 14, 15; xix, 11-21; 2 Thess. ii, 8; Joel iii, 9-13.

The Lord must come under the seventh plague; for it is under this plague that the islands and mountains are moved out of their places, and that men cry to the rocks and mountains to fall on them and hide them from the face of the Lamb. Compare Rev. xvi, 20; vi, 14-17.
Therefore the last church will be one year on the earth without an intercessor, while the plagues are falling."
