Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Revelation 2:16

COM commentary-section · status:draft · license:PD

16. The three oldest manuscripts read, "Repent, therefore. " Not only the Nicolaitanes, but the whole Church of Pergamos is called on to repent of not having hated the Nicolaitane teaching and practice. Contrast Paul, Acts 20:26 . I will come —I am coming. fight against them — Greek, "war with them"; with the Nicolaitanes primarily; but including also chastisement of the whole Church at Pergamos: compare "unto THEE." with the sword of my mouth —resumed from Revelation 1:16 , but with an allusion to the drawn sword with which the angel of the Lord confronted Balaam on his way to curse Israel: an earnest of the sword by which he and the seduced Israelites fell at last. The spiritual Balaamites of John's day are to be smitten with the Lord's spiritual sword, the word or "rod of His mouth." return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verse-17" class="com-number"
