"The fourth angel blew his trumpet, and a third of the sun was struck, and a third of the moon, and a third of the stars, so that a third of their light might be darkened, and a third of the day might be kept from shining, and likewise a third of the night" (Rev. 8:12)
I have been reading Kenneth L. Gentry's argument for preterism (partial-preterism for all you dogmatists out there) in Four Views on the Book of Revelation. However, Gentry does not address the significance of this trumpet. From a preterist perspective, would this celestial language be best viewed as a general allusion to divine judgment or something else?
