ヨハネの黙示録 19:11-14 JCB

The Pulpit Commentary - Revelation 19:12

The dignities of Christ. "On his head were many crowns." It is suggested— I. THAT THESE DIGNITIES ARE OF PRICELESS VALUE . What on earth does man regard as more valuable than a "crown"? Poor fool! He has waded through seas of blood, wrecked thrones, ruined empires, risked all he possessed, even life itself, in order to win a "crown." But what are all the crowns of the world compared to the diadems that encircled the Being of Christ? II. THAT THESE DIGNITIES ARE... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Revelation 19:12

The manifoldness of Christ's dominion. "On his head were many crowns." Crowns are man's emblems of the highest dignities and powers; and, in accommodation of our poor thoughts, Christ is here spoken of as having "many crowns." And truly he has many dominions. I. THE DOMINION OF MATTER IS HIS . 1 . Inorganic matter is under his control. Atoms, mountains, rivers, oceans, planets, suns, and systems. He controls the atoms; he heaves the ocean; he rolls the heavenly orbs... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Revelation 19:13

And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood; and he [is] arrayed in a garment, etc. The idea here is evidently derived from Isaiah 63:3 , "I have trodden the wine press alone; and of the people there was none with me: for I will tread them in mine anger, and trample them in my fury: and their blood shall be sprinkled upon my garments, and I will stain all my raiment" (cf. Isaiah 63:15 ). Probably the similarity of this passage has caused the reading, "sprinkled with blood," which... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Revelation 19:13

Intense earnestness of being. "Clothed in a vesture dipped in blood." What was the "blood" that dyed the robes of the illustrious Chieftain? Not that crimson fluid that streams from the veins of slaughtered men. It may be regarded— I. AS A SYMBOL OF HIS OWN AGONIZING EARNESTNESS . In Gethsemane it is said that he "sweated great drops of blood." It was earnestness. The man who wrote the Epistle to the Hebrews speaks of those who have not resisted unto blood, "striving... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Revelation 19:13

The Word of God. "The Word of God." The infinite Father has spoken two great words to his intelligent family. One word is nature. "The heavens declare his glory," etc. The other word is Christ. He is the Logos. The latter word is specially addressed to fallen humanity, and is a soul-redeeming word. In relation to this Word the following things may be predicated. He is— I. THE WORD OF ABSOLUTE INFALLIBILITY . Conventionally, men call the Scriptures the Word of God. Mere... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Revelation 19:14

And the amiss which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean; which are … white, pure. These armies are not merely the angels, but the "called, chosen, and faithful" of Revelation 17:14 , "the bride" of Revelation 17:8 , who are described as being arrayed in white in Revelation 6:11 , and Revelation 6:8 of this chapter. Those commentators who consider that the angels only are intended, and not the saints, forget the double nature of... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Revelation 19:14

Armies invisible and distant on the side of good. "The armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean." Heaven, it would seem, is populated with numerous intelligent beings, existing in various types of condition, influence, power, etc. It is suggested— I. THE HOSTS OF HEAVEN ARE INTERESTED IN THE MORAL CAMPAIGN WHICH CHRIST IS PROSECUTING ON THIS EARTH . They not only know what is going on in this... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Revelation 19:11

And I saw heaven opened - He saw a new vision, as if an opening were made through the sky, and he was permitted to look into heaven. See the notes on Revelation 4:1.And behold, a white horse - On the white horse as a symbol, see the notes on Revelation 6:2. He is here the symbol of the final victory that is to be obtained over the beast and the false prophet Revelation 19:20, and of the final triumph of the church.And he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True - He is not designated here... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Revelation 19:12

His eyes were as a flame of fire - See the notes on Revelation 1:14.And on his head were many crowns - Many diadems, indicative of his universal reign. It is not said how these were worn or arranged on his head - perhaps the various diadems worn by kings were in some way wreathed into one.And he had a name written - That is, probably on the frontlet of this compound diadem. Compare the notes on Revelation 13:1; Revelation 14:1.That no man knew but he himself - See the notes on Revelation 2:17.... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Revelation 19:13

And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood - Red, as if dipped in blood - emblem of slaughter. The original of this image is probably Isaiah 63:2-3. See the notes on that passage.And his name is called The Word of God - The name which in Revelation 19:12, it is said that no one knew but he himself. This name is Ὁ λόγος τοῦ Θεοῦ Ho logos tou Theou, or “the Logos of God.” That is, this is his unique name; a name which belongs only to him, and which distinguishes him from all other... read more
