Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible - Revelation 3:20

20. stand—waiting in wonderful condescension and long-suffering. knock— ( :-). This is a further manifestation of His loving desire for the sinner's salvation. He who is Himself "the Door," and who bids us "knock" that it may be "opened unto" us, is first Himself to knock at the door of our hearts. If He did not knock first, we should never come to knock at His door. Compare Song of Solomon 5:4-6, which is plainly alluded to here; the Spirit thus in Revelation sealing the canonicity of that... read more

21. sit with me in my throne— (Revelation 2:26; Revelation 2:27; Revelation 20:6; Matthew 19:28; Matthew 20:23; John 17:22; John 17:24; 2 Timothy 2:12). The same whom Christ had just before threatened to spue out of His mouth, is now offered a seat with Him on His throne! "The highest place is within reach of the lowest; the faintest spark of grace may be fanned into the mightiest flame of love" [TRENCH]. even as I also—Two thrones are here mentioned: (1) His Father's, upon which He now sits,... read more

G. The letter to the church in Laodicea 3:14-22Jesus Christ sent this letter to shake the Laodicean Christians out of their self-sufficient complacency and to exhort them to self-sacrifice for higher spiritual goals (cf. Colossians 2:1-2; Colossians 4:16). read more

3. Exhortation 3:18-19Since they considered themselves to be rich but were spiritually poor Jesus urged them to "buy," implying self-sacrifice, the things they really needed (cf. Isaiah 55:1). Instead of real gold they should buy "gold refined by fire," namely, pure spiritual riches (cf. Psalms 66:10; Proverbs 17:3; Zechariah 13:9; Luke 12:21; 1 Timothy 6:18; James 1:3-4; James 2:5; 1 Peter 1:7; 1 Peter 4:12-13).

4. Promise 3:20-22In the context we note that God addressed well-known Revelation 3:20 to Christians."The first thing which a person must get fixed in his mind when studying the message to the Church in Laodicea is the fact that the Spirit of God is addressing Christians. . . ."Too many people deal with certain acute problems which arise in the Christian life in a rather loose manner. When, for example, sin manifests itself in the life of an individual claiming to be a Christian, one of the... read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Revelation 3:1-22

The Epistles to the Seven Churches (concluded)1-6. To the Church in Sardis Christ speaks as He who gives the spirit and looks for spiritual life. There is no praise for this Church. Its life is without spiritual reality (Revelation 3:1). Yet, even now, awakening is within its power. But if it continue to sleep, Christ will come in sudden judgment (Revelation 3:2.). A few individuals have remained faithful. To them, and to all such, Christ promises gladness and life, and that He will acknowledge... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Revelation 3:19

(19) I rebuke and chasten.—The first word is that used in the work of the Holy Spirit (John 16:8), and signifies to bring conviction; it is not empty censure. The second word signifies to educate by means of correction. The pronoun is emphatic, “I,” and calls attention to the fidelity of Christ’s love in comparison with the weak partiality seen in human love. (Comp. Hebrews 12:6.)Be zealous.—Or, be in a constant zealous state; and now, once for all, repent.(2°) Behold, I stand at the door, and... read more

My throne, saith Christ: this is the condition of glorified saints who sit with Christ in His throne. “But My Father’s (i.e., God’s) throne is the power of divine majesty.” Herein none may sit but God, and the God-man Jesus Christ. The promise of sharing the throne is the climax of an ascending series of glorious promises, which carry the thought from the Garden... read more
