Revelation 10:4

When the seven thunders had spoken, I was about to write [down what they had said, at Jesus' request Rev 1:19], but I heard a voice from heaven saying, "Seal up what the seven thunders have said and do not write it down."
[The main purpose of the Book of Revelation is not to hide God's purposes, but to reveal them, see Rev 22:10. What "the seven thunders" said is the only part of this book that is hidden. God's voice is often likened to thunder, see Ps. 29; Job 26:14; John 12:28–29, and seven often represents something complete and perfect. In Rev 4:5 it says that "thunder came from the throne," which also indicates that it was God's voice that John heard. Thunder is often associated with judgment, see 1 Sam. 2:10; Rev 8:5; 11:19; 16:18. This voice probably speaks of God's complete and final judgment of the earth. However, it is pointless to speculate about what was said, see Deut. 29:29.]
