Revelation — John on Patmos sees the Lamb who was slain enthroned, the scroll opened, Babylon fallen, and the new Jerusalem descending. The canon's capstone — and its most interpretively contested book.

On this verse

Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

For I testify--None of our manuscripts have this. A, B, Vulgate, and ANDREAS read, "I" emphatic in the Greek. "I testify." unto these things--A, B, and ANDREAS read, "unto them." add . . . add--just retribution in kind.

Jamieson, Fausset & Brown· Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible, 1871reformed
