The day of the Lord in Revelation

Revelation 5:9-10 "When he opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain because of the word of God and the testimony they had maintained. They called out in a loud voice, "How long Sovereign Lord, holy and true, until you judge the inhabitants of the earth and avenge our blood?"
The great tribulation was occurring. The martyrs were waiting for the day of the Lord, when God would punish the unbelievers.
The sign of the day of the Lord happens at the 6th seal (6:12-16).
6:17 "For the great day of their wrath has come, and who can stand?"
In chapter 7 we see the raptured Church. In chapter 8 the day of the Lord begins.
