REVELATION 1 Pg 2

The revelation of Jesus:  His second coming

 1:7  Behold,

            [1] he cometh with clouds [God rides on a swift cloud (Isa. 19:1); in His return, He shall be accompanied by a great cloud of witnesses (Heb. 12:1; Jude 14)]; and

            [2] every eye shall see him, and

            [3] they [also] which pierced him [shall see him]: and

            [4] all kindreds of the earth shall wail

[11.] because of him.

Even so, Amen.

 

 1:8  I am

            [1] Alpha and

            [2] Omega,

            [3] the beginning and

            [4] the ending,

saith the Lord,

                        [a.] which is, and

                        [b.] which was, and

                        [c.] which is to come [Jesus likewise inhabits all of eternity (c/p. Rev. 1:4 )],

the Almighty.

 

 1:9  I John, who also am

            [1] your brother, and

            [2] [your] companion in tribulation, and

            [3] [your companion] in the kingdom and

 

            [4] [your companion in the] patience of Jesus Christ,

was in the isle that is called Patmos,  [c/p. vs. 2; 6:9]

                        [a.] for the word of God, and

                        [b.] for the testimony [witness (c/p. vs. Rev. 1:2; Rev. 6:9; Rev. 12:11, Rev. 12:17; Rev. 19:10; Rev. 20:4)]

[11. ] of Jesus Christ.

 

 1:10  I [John]

            [1] was in the Spirit 

[a.] on the Lord's day [John was given a spiritual vision of the Day of the Lord (c/p. Joel 1:15; Zeph. 1:14-18)], and

            [2] heard behind me

[a.] a great voice,

                                    [11.] as of a trumpet,

 1:11  Saying,

                        [b.] I am

                                    [11.] Alpha and

                                    [12.] Omega,

                                    [13.] the first and

                                    [14.] the last: and,

                        [c.] What thou seest,

                                    [11.] write in a book, and

                                    [12.] send [it] unto the seven churches which are in Asia;

                                                [aa.] unto Ephesus, and

                                                [bb.] unto Smyrna, and

                                                [cc.] unto Pergamos, and

                                                [dd.] unto Thyatira, and

                                                [ee.] unto Sardis, and

                                                [ff.] unto Philadelphia, and

                                                [gg.] unto Laodicea.
