10 The fifth poured out his bowl on the throne of the beast, and his kingdom was darkened. They gnawed their tongues because of the pain,
poured his bowl on the throne of the beast – meaning the power of the beast is now completely taken away, as described in Rev 19:20. The kingdom of heaven has been fully cleansed after 1,000 years. In the next bowl of wrath, Satan will be released from the bottomless pit to gather the nations together.
his kingdom became darkened – this is equivalent to the fourth trumpet; the sun, moon and stars are darkened as the final lawlessness is removed.
they gnawed their tongues – this is likely a reference to the false “praying in tongues” in the kingdom of the beast.
