Apocalipse 1:19 Meaning and Commentary

Revelation 1:19

Write the things which thou hast seen
The Alexandrian copy and some others, and the Complutensian edition, read, "write therefore the things" meaning what he had now seen, the vision of one like to the son of man, amidst the golden candlesticks, with seven stars in his right hand, and as above described; this was what he had seen ( Revelation 1:12 Revelation 1:13 Revelation 1:16 ) ; for it does not refer to what he had seen of Christ in the days of his flesh, but to what he had now seen in this representation of him:

and the things which are;
the state of the churches of Christ in the apostolic age, and at that time signified by the Ephesian church, and that part of the Smyrnean which John lived to see:

and the things which shall be hereafter;
from hence unto the end of the world, in successive generations, signified by the rest of the churches, and in the visions of the seals, trumpets, and vials.

Apocalipse 1:19 In-Context

17 Quando o vi, caí aos seus pés como morto. Então ele colocou sua mão direita sobre mim e disse: “Não tenha medo. Eu sou o Primeiro e o Último.

18 Sou Aquele que Vive. Estive morto, mas agora estou vivo para todo o sempre! E tenho as chaves da morte e do Hades.

19 “Escreva, pois, as coisas que você viu, tanto as presentes como as que acontecerão.

20 Este é o mistério das sete estrelas que você viu em minha mão direita e dos sete candelabros: as sete estrelas são os anjos das sete igrejas, e os sete candelabros são as sete igrejas.
