Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Revelation 15:5

(5) And after that . . .—Better, And after these things I saw, and there was opened the temple of the tabernacle of the testimony (or, witness) in the heaven. This temple is called the temple of the tabernacle of the testimony; the expression sounds cumbrous, but it is nevertheless suitable. St. Stephen spoke of “the tabernacle of witness” in the wilderness, which was made after the pattern showed in the mount (Acts 7:44). The tabernacle was well called the tabernacle of witness, for it... read more

Expositor's Dictionary of Texts - Revelation 15:1-8

The Song of Triumph Revelation 15:3 I. The life of the redeemed is here represented as a 'Service of Song'. This will afford matter neither for merriment nor surprise, if we reflect for a moment or two on the function of song. Music is a language, and frequently the only language that can give expression to the highest thoughts of the mind, or the deepest feelings of the heart. For words cannot utter what is greatest in us. Looks may dp it, glances, gestures, smiles and tears may do it, but it... read more

Expositor's Bible Commentary - Revelation 15:1-8

; Revelation 16:1-21 CHAPTER XIITHE SEVEN BOWLS.Revelation 15:1-8; Revelation 16:1-21.NOTHING can more clearly prove that the Revelation of St John is not written upon chronological principles than the scenes to which we are introduced in the fifteenth and sixteenth chapters of the book. We have already been taken to the end. We have seen in chap. 14 the Son of man upon the throne of judgment, the harvest of the righteous, and the vintage of the wicked. Yet we are now met by another series of... read more

Geneva Study Bible - Revelation 15:5

15:5 {9} And after that I looked, and, behold, the temple of the tabernacle of the testimony in heaven was opened:(9) The second part of the narration (as was noted in) see Geneva (4) "Revelation 15:2" in which first the authority of the whole argument and matter is figured by a forerunning type of a temple opened in heaven, as in Revelation 11:19 namely that all those things are divine and of God, that proceed from thence in this verse. Secondly, the administers or executors, come out of the... read more

L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - Revelation 15:1-8

Preparation For The Seven Last Plagues The seventh trumpet (Revelation 11:15) took us to the end of the Tribulation and to the introduction of the Millennial Kingdom. Revelation 12:1-17 to Revelation 14:1-20 added explanatory details connected with the events of the trumpets, and these also continue to the end of the Tribulation. Therefore the seven vials (or bowls) are not successive to the trumpets or to Revelation 14:1-20, but cover at least part of the same period of time. These "bowls"... read more

James Gray

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Revelation 15:1-8

THE SEVEN VIALS The law of recurrence finds a further illustration here for we are still in the Tribulation period, the latter half of Daniel’s seventieth week, and are looking upon the features of that day of judgment. The Introduction includes the whole of chapter 15, being the revelation of the “overcomers” and the seven angels. No one can read this without being struck by its likeness to the song of Moses after Israel’s deliverance from Pharaoh at the Red Sea. (Exodus 15:0 ). The... read more

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - Revelation 15:1-8

Moses and the Lamb Rev 15:3 This is a marvellous conjunction of names. The song sung by the saints who overcame is a song of the human and divine; a song of the servant and the Son; and it may be worth our while to trace, so far as we may be able, this remarkable and even startling conjunction. It is not proposed to go in quest of remote analogies or resemblances, or to force meanings upon passages contrary to their plain import. We know that Moses was very meek above all men upon the earth,... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Revelation 15:5-6

(5) And after that I looked, and, behold, the temple of the tabernacle of the testimony in heaven was opened: (6) And the seven angels came out of the temple, having the seven plagues, clothed in pure and white linen, and having their breasts girded with golden girdles. It is not heaven, the place of the blessed in glory, that is here meant; for what is said soon after, verse 8, of being filled with smoke, if there were no other cause, would do this away. But it is the Church, which for the... read more

George Haydock

George Haydock's Catholic Bible Commentary - Revelation 15:5

And after these things. Here the scene changes, and is carried back to the period of time that immediately precedes the seven plagues. This removal of the scene St. John insinuates by the unusual circumlocution, "after these things I beheld," and looked on the commencement of this scene. The temple opens, and the seven Angels with the seven plagues proceed from the sanctuary to execute the work they are charged with. (Pastorini) --- One ought not to be surprised to see the good Angels employed... read more
