Revelation 6 is the sixth chapter of the Book of Revelation or the Apocalypse of John in the New Testament of the Christian Bible. The book is traditionally attributed to John the Apostle, [1] [2] but the precise identity of the author remains a point of academic debate. [3] This chapter describes the opening of the first six of the seven seals ...
[f] An anonymous Scottish commentary of 1871 [130] prefaces Revelation 4 with the Little Apocalypse of Mark 13, places Malachi 4:5 ("Behold I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord") within Revelation 11 and writes Revelation 12:7 side by side with the role of "the Satan" in the Book of Job ...
KJV: "(For of necessity he must release one unto them at the feast.)" (The Good News Bible, as a footnote, gave this as: "At every Passover Festival Pilate had to set free one prisoner for them.") Reasons: The same verse or a very similar verse appears (and is preserved) as Matthew 27:15 and as Mark 15:6. This verse is suspected of having been ...
The most significant differences among these exegetes concern the identification of the prophecies in Revelation 1:1–6:11 with historical events.

The author then sees four creatures which have six wings and are covered in eyes (Revelation 4:6–11). The creatures are giving eternal thanks to God and, whenever one of them bows down to worship God, the twenty four elders around God's throne bow down to worship God. This is a call back to Ezekiel 1:6- 14, in which Ezekiel had a similar vision.
Illustration from the Bamberg Apocalypse of the Son of Man among the seven lampstands The Vision of John on Patmos by Julius Schnorr von Carolsfeld (1860). John's vision of the Son of Man, also known as John’s Vision of Christ, is a vision described in the Book of Revelation (Revelation 1:9–20) in which the author, identified as John, sees a person he describes as one "like the Son of Man" ().
The reference to the lamb in Revelation 5:6 relates it to the Seven Spirits which first appear in Revelation 1:4 and are associated with Jesus who holds them along with seven stars. [5] An alternative view is that the seven graces ("charisma") of Romans 12:6–8 reflect the seven spirits of God. The Holy Spirit manifests in humankind through ...
