Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Revelation 2:22

I will cast her into a bed; another kind of bed than she hath sinned in and by, not a bed of ease and pleasure, but of pain and torment. Nor shall the seduced escape, they shall also be cast into great tribulation, pains and torments of conscience, or afflictions more corporal, either from the more immediate hand of God, or the hands of men. Except they repent of their deeds; this is to be supposed to all God’s threatenings of judgments, the execution of them ordinarily may be prevented by... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Revelation 2:23

And I will kill her children, those who are seduced by her, with death; I will destroy them; unless some special death, such as the plague, be here threatened. So shall all the churches near Thyatira know, that I am a God who do not only take notice of overt, scandalous acts, but of the secret thoughts, motions, counsels, and designs of men’s hearts, Psalms 7:10; Jeremiah 11:20; Jeremiah 17:10; and that I am a just God, who will deal with all according to their works. read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Revelation 2:18-29

CRITICAL AND EXEGETICAL NOTESRevelation 2:18. Thyatira.—Situated between Pergamos and Sardis. Inscriptions show that it contained many corporate guilds, one being that of the dyers. Apollo was specially worshipped, as the sun-god, under the Macedonian name of Tyrinnas. Son of God.—This name solemnly affirms His Divine power, as well as right, and prepares for the promised bestowment of power, in Revelation 2:26. Eyes.—A figure representing His omniscience, and especially the intensity of its... read more

DISCOURSE: 2491EPISTLE TO THYATIRARevelation 2:19-23. I know thy works, and charity, and service, and faith, and thy patience, and thy works; and the last to be more than the first. Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols. And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she repented not. Behold, I will... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Revelation 2:1-29

Epistle the first. Revelation 2:1 . The angel of the church of Ephesus, or the messenger of Christ; for the apostles, and apostolic men, while they remained in any church, were always regarded as the chief pastors, and as having the first powers of discipline. Hence John rebuked Diotrephes, and Paul threatened the disturbers of Corinth with a rod. John in like manner, as the apostle of the Lord, regarded his pastoral trusts, as general superintendent and bishop of all the churches of... read more

Revelation 2:18-29Thyatira.Thyatira--the sentimental ChurchOne thing which Ephesus had Thyatira wanted, and it was a blessed want; nothing is said of Thyatira’s “toil.” The temper which animated the Church made all its service joyous, Therefore the Lord’s commendation is so full and unreserved; He does not talk of removing the candlestick out of its place; instead He frankly recognises the growing efficiency of His servants: “I know that thy latest works are more than the first.” Nevertheless... read more

And I will kill her children with death, ] All men die (saith a divine, descanting upon this text), but all are not killed with death.
