Revelation 1:17. And when I saw him, I fell at his feet, &c.— "I have just been describing the appearance of Jesus Christ to me, with which I was favoured on the Lord's day, while I was engaged in such devout sentiments as were suitable to the time and occasion: and I now add, that when I saw him in this awful, this glorious and resplendent form, I was perfectly overwhelmed with the majesty of his appearance, so that I fell down at his feet dead; and he immediately condescended to raise me... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Revelation 1:1-20

I. THE PREPARATION OF THE PROPHET CH. 1The first chapter contains a prologue to the book, which is similar to the one in John 1:1-18, the prologue to John’s Gospel (cf. 1 John 1:1-4). It also relates a vision that God gave John that prepared him for what follows. This presentation has the effect of showing that Jesus Christ is the culminating figure in human history (cf. Hebrews 1), and it prepares the reader for the revelation of His future acts that constitutes the bulk of this book. read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Revelation 1:17

This revelation of Jesus Christ in His unveiled glory took all the strength out of John. He could not stand in the presence of such a One. Paul had a similar experience on the Damascus road (Acts 9:4; cf. Job 42:5-6; Isaiah 6:5; Ezekiel 1:28; Daniel 8:17; Daniel 10:5-20). However the glorified Christ laid His comforting, powerful hand on John and encouraged him to stop fearing (cf. Jesus’ action following the Transfiguration, Matthew 17:7). He introduced Himself as the self-existent, eternal... read more

3. The amplification of the commission 1:17-20John’s response to this revelation was similar to Daniel’s response to the vision God gave him (cf. Daniel 10:7-9). Jesus then proceeded to give John more information about what He wanted him to do. read more

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

The Vision of the Son of ManSt. John addresses ’the seven churches which are in Asia,’ telling them of a vision of Christ, who bade him, write in a book what he saw and send it to them.1-3.

The book... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Revelation 1:17

(17) I fell at his feet as dead.—At the sight of Him, the Evangelist fell as one dead. “Was this He whom upon earth St. John had known so familiarly? Was this He in whose bosom He had lain at that Last Supper, and said, ‘Lord, which is he that betrayeth Thee?’ When I saw Him thus transformed, thus glorified, I fell at His feet as one dead. Well might such be the effect, even upon the spirit of a just man made perfect—and St. John was still in the body—of such an open revelation of the risen... read more
