Verse 2
2 And I heard a voice from heaven, as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of a great thunder: and I heard the voice of harpers harping with their harps:
Ver. 2. As the voice of many waters ] The word of God (called here a voice from heaven) hath, saith Mr Forbes, three degrees of operation in the hearts of men. 1. It works wondering (as the sound of many waters) and acknowledging of a strange force and more than human power,Mark 12:22; Mark 12:22 ; Luke 4:32 ; John 7:46 ; John 2:1-25 . It works not only wonder but fear, as thunder doth; thus it wrought in Felix, and may do in any reprobate. 3. It works in the elect peace and joy; it makes music in the soul, far sweeter than that of harpers,1 Peter 1:8; 1 Peter 1:8 .
