Matthew Poole and continuators on Revelation 6:10

10 And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true , dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth ?

Their Blood cried, or their Souls cried to God.

How long O Lord, holy, and therefore that canst not abide Iniquity, and of all iniquity canst least abide innocent Blood, which is the Blood of thy Saints, whose Blood is precious in thy sight.

And who are true to thy▪ Word of threatnings against Blood-thirsty Men, and to thy Promises for the deliverance of thy People.

Dost thou not judg our cause, and avenge us who have committed Vengeance to thee, not daring to avenge our selves upon wicked Men, who dwelling upon the Earth are seen, and their practices known to, and by thee, and are under thy power, so as thou canst at pleasure do it.
