“And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.”
The sky vanished like a scroll rolling itself up, and every mountain and island was removed from its place — the sky (ouranos, heaven itself) rolls up like a scroll, a vivid image of reality's dissolution (2 Peter 3:10). Mountains and islands (symbolizing stable landmarks) are unmade, indicating comprehensive destruction of the created order.
