Revelation 11 - Power to my two witnesses Sabbath School From Home

There's definitely controversy described in Revelation 11, and there could also be about this chapter! 
The lesson this week makes quite a strong statement about this chapter pointing to the French Revolution. We discuss a few cautions about confirmation bias, and don't see this connection particularly vividly in the text itself. Rather than try to reach a definitive interpretation, we explore some details in this passage and meditate on the power of God despite the observation of suffering and oppression.
