READ Commentary Chapter 5:
Chapter 5
And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, "Who
is
worthy to open the book and to break its seals?" And no one in
heaven or on the earth or under the earth was
able to open the
book or to look into it.
And I saw between the throne (with the four living creatures)
and
the elders a Lamb standing, as if slain, having seven horns
and
seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God, sent out into
all
the earth.

Worthy are You to take
the book and to break its seals; for You
were slain, and purchased
for God with Your blood men from
every tribe and tongue and people
and nation.
The
Book with Seven Seals
1
I saw in the right hand of Him who sat on the throne a book
written inside and on the back, sealed up with seven seals.
2 And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, "Who
is worthy to open the book and to break its seals?"
3 And no one in heaven or on the earth or under the earth was
able to open the book or to look into it.
4
Then I began to weep greatly because no one was found worthy to
open the book or to look into it;
5
and one of the elders said to me, "Stop weeping; behold,
the Lion that is from the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has
overcome so as to open the book and its seven seals."
6
And I saw between the throne (with the four living creatures)
and the elders a Lamb standing, as if slain, having seven horns
and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God, sent out into
all the earth.
7
And He came and took the book out of the right hand of Him who
sat on the throne.
8
When He had taken the book, the four living creatures and the
twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each one holding
a harp and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers
of the saints.
9
And they sang a new song, saying, "Worthy are You to take
the book and to break its seals; for You were slain, and purchased
for God with Your blood men from every tribe and tongue and people
and nation.
10
"You have made them to be a kingdom and priests to our God;
and they will reign upon the earth."
Angels
Exalt the Lamb
11
Then I looked, and I heard the voice of many angels around the
throne and the living creatures and the elders; and the number
of them was myriads of myriads, and thousands of thousands,
12
saying with a loud voice, "Worthy is the Lamb that was slain
to receive power and riches and wisdom and might and honor and
glory and blessing."
13
And every created thing which is in heaven and on the earth and
under the earth and on the sea, and all things in them, I heard
saying, "To Him who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb,
be blessing and honor and glory and dominion forever and ever."
14
And the four living creatures kept saying, "Amen." And
the elders fell down and worshiped.
