Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Revelation 22:1-21

Revelation 22:1 . He shewed me a pure river of water of life. From the city we go to the palace, where the vision opens on the rock of ages, the Elohim, seated on his throne. Thence flows the crystal river with a constant stream, never exhausted with drought, nor ever swollen and turbid with rain. It is pellucid as the clearest crystal, and he who drinks shall never die, for death and the curse are now no more. Revelation 22:2 . In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the... read more

Revelation 22:16-21I, Jesus, have sent Mine angel Our Lord’s angelWould our Lord I say this of any angel of the Lord, because” all things that the Father hath are His”?Or has our Lord, as man, an angel of His own in the same way that His saints have? St. Luke 22:43 seems as if He needed and had, in the days of His flesh, such angelic guardianship as is implied in St. Matthew 18:10; and this passage is at least consistent with the view that His angel appears in His form, as St. Peter’s was... read more

Revelation 22:17The Spirit and the bride say, Come.And let him that heareth say, Come. Christ’s coming to the world, and men’s coming to ChristThe two halves of the verse do not refer to the same persons, or the same “coming.” The first portion is an invocation or a prayer; the second portion is an invitation or an offer. The one is addressed to Christ, the other to men. The commentary upon the former is the last words of the Book, where we find the seer answering the promise of his... read more

Revelation 22:18-19If any man shall add unto these things.The Divine Word, and the doom of its defacersI. The perfection of God’s Word. Man may not intermeddle with it, either to add or to take away.

He has magnified it, even above His works; so that he who disparages the Word of God is more guilty than he... read more

Revelation 22:21The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all The grace of Jesus ChristIt is the last text in the Bible and it fits well the last day of the year.It is well we should take a blessing to ourselves, or at least try to fancy that it may be ours, for we need it sorely on this day. Dwell as we will on the brighter side of things, life is very hard, and men and women are hard on one another, and we ourselves are growing hard, and that is the worst of all. We need something to... read more
