Listen to Apocalisse 19:2

Apocalisse 19:2 Meaning and Commentary

Revelation 19:2

For true and righteous are his judgments
As in (See Gill on Revelation 15:3), (See Gill on Revelation 16:7): this is to be understood of God's judgments in general, and is a reason of the attribution of praise and glory to him; which may be said to be true, because, being threatened, are now fulfilled; and to be "righteous", because according to the demerit of sin; and particularly God's judgments on antichrist are intended:

for he hath judged the great whore;
Jezebel, Babylon, the Romish antichrist, before spoken of, ( Revelation 17:1 ) not only by passing a sentence of condemnation on her, but by executing it, putting it into the hearts of the kings to hate and burn her, and utterly destroy her; and which is judging right, since it follows:

which did corrupt the earth with her fornication;
drew the kings and inhabitants of the Roman empire into wicked and idolatrous practices, and so corrupted and destroyed them in soul, body, and estate; (See Gill on Revelation 11:18) for this vision is contemporary with the seventh trumpet:

and hath avenged the blood of his servants at her hand;
shed by her, ( Revelation 18:20 Revelation 18:24 ) ( 16:6 ) and this being done in righteous judgment, is matter of joy and praise to the saints.

1 E DOPO queste cose, io udii nel cielo come una gran voce d’una grossa moltitudine, che diceva: Alleluia! la salute, e la potenza, e la gloria, e l’onore, appartengono al Signore Iddio nostro.
2 Percioccchè veraci e giusti sono i suoi giudicii; poichè egli ha fatto giudicio della gran meretrice, che ha corrotta la terra con la sua fornicazione, ed ha vendicato il sangue de’ suoi servitori, ridomandandolo dalla mano di essa.
3 E disse la seconda volta: Alleluia! e il fumo d’essa sale ne’ secoli de’ secoli.
4 E i ventiquattro vecchi e i quattro animali, si gettarono giù, e adorarono Iddio, sedente in sul trono, dicendo: Amen, Alleluia!
5 Ed una voce procedette dal trono, dicendo: Lodate l’Iddio nostro, voi tutti i suoi servitori, e voi che lo temete, piccoli e grandi.
