Commentary

Commentary on Revelation 19:6

Theological / Devotional

I heard. Compare on ch. 1:2.

As it were. Or, “what seemed to be.”

Voice. See on ch. 14:2.

And as the voice. Rather, “even as the voice,” in both instances where this expression occurs in v. 6.

Many waters. Compare ch. 14:2.

Alleluia. See on v. 1.

Omnipotent. Or, “Almighty” (see on 2 Cor. 6:18; Rev. 1:8).

Reigneth. Literally, “reigned,” in the sense that He “began to reign.” It is at the close of the investigate judgment, but before Christ leaves the most holy place, that He receives His kingdom and begins His reign as “King of kings”.
