Semeru's volcanic ash column rising to 15,000 ft exemplifies the 'earthquakes in various places' category of end-times signs. While not explicitly earthquakes, volcanic activity represents geological upheaval and natural disturbances that characterize the birth pangs before the end, as described in Matthew 24:7 and Luke 21:11.
