COM commentary-section · status:draft · license:PD
18. Contrast with this "supper," Revelation 19:17 ; Revelation 19:18 , the marriage supper of the Lamb, Revelation 19:18- : . captains — Greek, "captains of thousands," that is, chief captains. The "kings" are "the ten" who "give their power unto the beast." free and bond —specified in Revelation 13:16 , as "receiving the mark of the beast." The repetition of flesh (in the Greek it is plural: masses of flesh ) five times in this verse, marks the gross carnality of the followers of the beast. Again, the giving of their flesh to the fowls to eat, is a righteous retribution for their not suffering the dead bodies of Christ's witnesses to be put in graves. return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verse-19" class="com-number"
