F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Revelation 11:1-13

the “Two Witnesses” Revelation 11:1-13 We cannot in this brief note indicate the various interpretations of this chapter, but certain great principles underlie it, which are true of every age. (1) During the darkest ages, men have been raised up to testify against the prevailing corruption of their time, and especially the corruption of the apostate Church. Their opponents have endeavored to silence their voice and blacken their character, but God has ever vindicated them and given life out... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Revelation 11:1-19

John is called on to measure the temple. In such measurements the court of the Gentiles is not to be recognized. It shows God dealing with the world through His chosen people. The account of the two witnesses must be taken in connection with the recognition of the temple. Their work will be to tell the will of God to an age in rebellion against Him. No malice is able to accomplish the destruction of these witnesses until their work is ended. When that is done they are slain, and there is the... read more

Wells of Living Water Commentary - Revelation 11:1-19

The Two Witnesses Revelation 10:1-11 and Revelation 11:1-19 INTRODUCTORY WORDS By way of introduction to the study of the eleventh chapter of Revelation we wish to say a word about the tenth chapter. 1. The mighty angel which came down from Heaven. The angel described in Revelation 10:1 came down with a cloud, a rainbow was round about his head; his face was as the sun, and his feet as pillars of fire. The angel had in his hand a little book that was open. His right foot was set upon the... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Revelation 11:1-14

The Measuring of the Sanctuary and the Two Witnesses (Revelation 11:1-14 ). It is significant that these events take place within the second ‘woe’ when wholesale death pervades the Middle East (Revelation 11:14). They describe God’s final plea to both physical Israel and those of the nations in Jerusalem to turn to Him in the final days of the age, a plea which meets with at least partial success. John knows that before the end God will show special concern for His rejected people Israel as... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Revelation 11:10

‘And those who dwell on the earth rejoice over them and make merry, and they will send gifts to one another because these two prophets tormented those who dwell on earth.’ Those whose hearts are on earthly things, the earth dwellers, throw parties and celebrate. At last they are free of these men who had made them feel so guilty, who had tormented their consciences. They happily send gifts to each other (compare Nehemiah 8:12; Esther 9:19) to demonstrate their relief. Their ‘tormentors’ have... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Revelation 11:11-12

‘And after the three and a half days the breath of life from God entered into them, and they stood on their feet, and great fear fell on those who saw them, and they heard a great voice from Heaven saying to them, “Come up here!”. And they went up into Heaven in the cloud, and their enemies saw the whole thing (literally - ‘beheld them’).’ The bodies of the remaining people of God lay exposed in the streets, including their two outstanding prophets who represented them, but then something... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Revelation 11:13

‘And in that hour there was a great earthquake and the tenth part of the city fell and seven thousand people were killed in the earthquake, and the remainder were terrified and gave glory to the God of Heaven.’ Now that God’s people have been taken up the world faces the judgment of God. There will be delay no longer. The immediate effect of this is the great earthquake, in which God takes His tithe of one tenth of the city, the firstfruits for judgment. And seven thousand people die. This... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Revelation 11:1-13

Revelation 11:1-1 Chronicles : . The Interlude continued. The Second Episode.— The first two verses are introductory, and represent the survey or measuring of the holy city by the seer. Then comes the prophecy concerning the two witnesses, followed by the first appearance in the book of “ the beast” or Antichrist ( Revelation 11:7). Revelation 11:1 . a reed: a measuring rod (Ezekiel 40 ff., Zechariah 2:1), Ezekiel’ s reed ( Ezekiel 40:5) was nine feet long.— measure the temple: the allusion... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Revelation 11:10

It is plain by the repeating of the same words in the close of the verse, that by those that dwell upon the earth are meant earthly, carnal men, whether papists or atheists; men that are mad upon their lusts; for these are those in whose consciences faithful and powerful preaching breeds a torment and uneasiness, so as they always count godly ministers their enemies, (as Ahab told Elijah), and are not able to bear their words (as the Israelites could not bear the words of Amos).
