Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Revelation 5:9

Revelation 5:9. And they sung a new song,— Excellent in its kind, and composed on a much greater occasion, and in much sublimer strains of divine harmony, than those which the priests and Levites sung in the temple of Jerusalem; saying, Worthy art thou to take the book from the hand, as it were, of God the Father; for thou, O blessed Lamb of God, who takest away the sins of the world, wast slain to expiate our guilt; and thou hast redeemed us to God by thy precious Blood, from the dominion and... read more

Revelation 5:10. And hast made us—kings and priests,— "We are robed in purity and majesty; we are crowned with gold; (ch. Revelation 4:4.) and here we appear in those priestly offices which we perform with the splendor of princes; and we shall reign on earth.

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Revelation 5:9
