Revelation 7:11 Meaning and Commentary

Revelation 7:11

And all the angels stood round about the throne
The holy and elect angels, even all of them, the ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands, the innumerable company of them, who are represented in the same position; (See Gill on Revelation 5:11);

and [about] the elders, and the four beasts;
the churches and ministers; yea, round about the great multitude before mentioned, the camp of the saints, and the beloved city; whose guardians they will be, and to whom they will always be ministering spirits.

And fell before the throne on their faces:
in token of submission and reverence:

and worshipped God;
by celebrating the perfections of his nature, and ascribing to him the glory of all his works.

Revelation 7:11 In-Context

9 post haec vidi turbam magnam quam dinumerare nemo poterat ex omnibus gentibus et tribubus et populis et linguis stantes ante thronum et in conspectu agni amicti stolas albas et palmae in manibus eorum

10 et clamabant voce magna dicentes salus Deo nostro qui sedet super thronum et agno

11 et omnes angeli stabant in circuitu throni et seniorum et quattuor animalium et ceciderunt in conspectu throni in facies suas et adoraverunt Deum

12 dicentes amen benedictio et claritas et sapientia et gratiarum actio et honor et virtus et fortitudo Deo nostro in saecula saeculorum amen

13 et respondit unus de senioribus dicens mihi hii qui amicti sunt stolis albis qui sunt et unde venerunt
