Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Revelation 14:14-16

Revelation 14:14-16. And I looked, and behold a white cloud An emblem of the equity and holiness, as also of the victory of him that sat upon it, over all adverse power; and upon the cloud one like unto the Son of man By the majesty of his form, as represented in Daniel; having on his head a golden crown Signifying his high dignity, his extraordinary authority and power; and a sharp sickle in his hand As if going forth to reap some remarkable harvest. And another angel came out of... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Revelation 14:6-20

Angels and the harvest of the earth (14:6-20)Three angels now make proclamations. The first reminds people of the good news of God’s salvation, adding a warning of judgment and urging sinners to repent (6-7). The second announces judgment on Babylon, symbol of ungodly humankind who, in pride and opposition to God, has corrupted the world (8). The third announces judgment on all who have followed the antichrist (9-11).John desires that these visions encourage the Christians to be faithful in... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Revelation 14:16

And he that sat upon the cloud cast his sickle upon the earth; and the earth was reaped.Cast his sickle ... the earth was reaped ... There was no laborious effort on the part of Christ; he merely threw the whole judgment into gear, and it was executed. The widespread association of the angels with Christ in the final judgment (Matthew 13:41,49; 2 Thessalonians 1:7, etc.) naturally suggests that innumerable angels will be operative under Christ's authority in the execution of the final judgment.... read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Revelation 14:14-20

Revelation 14:14-20. I looked, and behold a white cloud, &c.— As the voices of these three warning angels had not their due effect, the judgments of God will overtake the followers and adherents of the beast; which judgments are represented under the figures of harvest and vintage, figures not unusual in the prophets, and used particularly by Joel, who denounces God's judgments against the enemies of his people in the like terms; Joel 3:13. What particular events are signified by this... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Revelation 14:14-20

The reaping and treading of God’s harvest 14:14-20This is the final scene that furnishes background information before the revelation of the seven bowl judgments. Again what John saw was mainly on the earth."The total scene in Revelation 14:14-20 closes the section on coming judgment (Revelation 14:6-20) with a proleptic summary in anticipation of the more detailed account of the same in chapters 15-20 . . ."

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Revelation 14:16

The Judge (John 5:27) then judged those on the earth. This judgment will occur at the end of the Tribulation (Revelation 19:17-21). This is a proleptic description of what Revelation will describe further in its sequential unfolding of events. [Note: Robertson, 6:415.] "The brevity of the statement dramatizes the suddenness of the judgment." [Note: Thomas, Revelation 8-22, p. 221.] read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Revelation 14:1-20

The Lamb and His Followers. Judgment on His EnemiesIn the last two chapters were seen the enemies of the Church, and their fierce power. Now, by way of contrast, and to encourage the Church to resist her enemies with complete certainty of victory, pictures are shown of the blessedness of those who witness a true confession for Christ, and of God’s judgment on the ungodly.1-5. The Lamb (cp. Revelation 5:6, etc.) is seen on Mount Zion, i.e. the true and heavenly home of the Church: cp. Hebrews... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Revelation 14:15-17

(15) And another angel . . .—Translate, And another angel came forth out of the temple, &c. It has been asked, “What harvest is this?” It is the gathering of the good seed, the full corn in the ear, into the celestial garner (Mark 4:26-29). The angel who announces that the harvest is ready comes forth from the Temple, the inner shrine, the holy place which was measured off in the sanctuary of the faithful (Revelation 11:1); whereas the angel who calls for the vintage comes forth from the... read more
