Text -- Revelation 1:12-20 (NET)
Strongs On/Off
Context
1:12 I turned to see whose voice was speaking to me , and when I did so, I saw seven golden lampstands ,
1:13 and in the midst of the lampstands was one like a son of man . He was dressed in a robe extending down to his feet and he wore a wide golden belt around his chest .
1:14 His head and hair were as white as wool , even as white as snow , and his eyes were like a fiery flame .
1:15 His feet were like polished bronze refined in a furnace , and his voice was like the roar of many waters .
1:16 He held seven stars in his right hand , and a sharp double-edged sword extended out of his mouth . His face shone like the sun shining at full strength .
1:17 When I saw him I fell down at his feet as though I were dead , but he placed his right hand on me and said : “Do not be afraid ! I am the first and the last ,
1:18 and the one who lives ! I was dead , but look , now I am alive – forever and ever – and I hold the keys of death and of Hades !
1:19 Therefore write what you saw , what is , and what will be after these things .
1:20 The mystery of the seven stars that you saw in my right hand and the seven golden lampstands is this: The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches and the seven lampstands are the seven churches .
