Revelation

Chapter 19
1-2~~And after these things
  {the great judgments of ecumenical religion}
I heard what sounded like a large roar of a large crowd in heaven, shouting, " 'Praise the Lord'/Hallelujah {allelouia}!
Deliverance {soteria - means deliverance and salvation}
and glory {doxa} and power {dunamis}
belong to our God 2~~
because His judgments {krisis} are true {alethinos}
  {actual historical events-printout of computer of divine decrees}
and righteous {dikaios}
  {divine judgment is based upon the function of divine integrity};
because He has judged {krino}
the great 'call-girl'/prostitute {ecumenical religion},
who seduced the earth by means of her fornication.
  {Ecumenical religion the chief agent of the cosmic evangelism in the
  Tribulation},
Furthermore . . . {He} avenged the blood
of His servants/slaves {doulos - Tribulational Martyrs}
shed by means of her hand."

3~~Then a second time {deuteros} they shouted,
" 'Praise the Lord'/Hallelujah {allelouia}!"
And so her smoke goes up forever and ever.

4~~Then the twenty-four elders
  {the staff officers of the angelic order of battle}
and the four living creatures
  {the seraph-ranked heralds from the angelic college of heralds}
fell down and worshipped God
the One Who is sitting on the throne
  {the glorified Christ, the visible One sitting on the throne},
and they shouted, "Amen/'We believe it' {amen}!
'Praise the Lord'/Hallelujah {allelouia}!"

{Break In Proclamation from the Seraph Rank King of Arms
  To Announce the Wedding of the Lamb (which begins in verse 7)}
5~~Then a voice
  {RBT says this is the King of Arms - replaced the position that
  Satan held before he fell - Satan was created this way. This
  angel earned the title and is higher than any other angel except
  maybe Michael and Gabriel}
came {exerchomai} from the throne {thronos}, saying,
"Give praise {aineo} to our God,
  {aineo - Attic Greek word - stands out - 'to bestow praise from
  your free will'}
all of you His servants,
you who respect/fear {phobeo} Him {Jesus Christ},
both the small
  {mikros - believers without reward - little to no doctrine in their
  souls, allowed God to produce little to no divine good through
  them still have resurrection bodies . . . so no regrets}
and the great
  {megas - the 'winner' believer - ECS crowd - allowed God to
  produce divine good - bringing Glory to the Lord in time}."

{Note: The bible must be interpreted based on events in the time it was written. In the day the bible was written, most marriages were arranged in advance by their families. The first step was a contract. This is analogous to salvation. The second step was the when the Groom came to the home of the bride in his best carriage and got the bride. The third step was back at the Groom's home. His friends (analogous to the Old Testament believers and Tribulational Martyrs) were already inside the Groom's house partying. The friends of the bride (analogous to the survivors of the Tribulation who are believers and will go into the Millennial reign of Christ) wait outside the house with lamps to light the way to the house for the Groom and bride.}

6~~Then I heard what sounded like {idiom} a large crowd of people
  {RBT says this is the bride - Church Age believers},
and what sounded like {idiom} many waters
  {RBT says this are the friends of the Groom - OT believers and
  Tribulational Martyrs would include John the Baptizer/Herald who
  declared he was a friend of the Groom and was an Old Testament
  believer who died before the Church Age began},
and what sounded like {idiom} mighty peals of thunders, shouting,
  {RBT says - the friends of the Bride - Tribulational Survivors}
" 'Praise the Lord'/Hallelujah {allelouia}!
Because the Lord our God, the Omnipotent One
  {pantokrator - compound word - 'all ruler' meaning all powerful one}
has become King {basileuo - total ruler}."

{The Wedding Feast of the Lamb Begins}
7~~"Let us 'rejoice from an attitude of happiness' {chairo}
and celebrate {doxa - give glory}
  {the expression of maximum happiness at the marriage banquet of
  the Lamb},
because the marriage banquet of the Lamb has arrived/come
  {following the second advent and the coronation of our Lord}
and 'his woman'/'the bride'
  {the Body of Christ in time becomes the Bride of Christ for eternity}
has prepared herself."

{Marriage in Heaven Prior to 2nd Advent}
8~~"Furthermore, it had been given to her
that she should be clothed in fine linen . . .
  {white of His righteousness - resurrection bodies}
shining
  {lampros - shining - winners only - Order of the Morning Star
  - Uniform of Glory - shinning like a celestial object},
but for the rest pure/clean/'no impurities'
  {katharos - no old sin nature or sin in eternity future}.
For the fine linen {pure and possibly shinning resurrection body} is
the 'fulfillment of the justification' {dikaioma}
of the saints/'the ones set-apart to God' {all believers}.

{First of Two Suppers - Wedding Supper/feast}
9~~Then he
  {the teaching angel - probably the Officer of Arms again from the
  college of heralds}
said to me {the apostle John},
"Write, 'Happinesses {to}'/'Blessed {are} {makarios - plural} . . .
they who have been invited/called {kaleo}
to the wedding party/feast of the Lamb.' "
Also he said to me,
"These {doctrines of eschatology} keep on being
the true {alethinos} doctrines/sayings {logos}
from the source of God."

{Verses 10-14: 2nd Advent of Christ -Verse 10 Transitional Verse}
{Prophecy of Revelation Tells us about Jesus Christ - VERY Important Book}
10~~Then I {John} 'fell down'
  {pipto - an emotional and/or impulsive type verb}
at {emprosthen} his {teaching angel's} feet
  {this angel was in human form}
to worship {proskuneo} him
  {Emotional John makes the mistake of worshiping the messenger
  instead of concentrating on the message}.
And so he said to me - to my advantage -
  {rebukes CAN be beneficial}
"Don't do it! {horao me}
  {idiom: horao means 'panoramic view' with the negative 'me' -
  literally 'see not'}
I am/'keep on being' your fellow servant {sundoulos}
  {both are servants of God and the Lord Jesus Christ},
along with {kai - unusual usage of kai} your brethren
  {pastors who would exist in every generation of Church history in
  this dispensation and would communicate Bible doctrine}
who have the 'doctrinal communication'/testimony {marturia}
about Jesus
  {means this angel is the angelic equivalent to pastor-teachers in
  the human race}.

Worship {proskuneo} The God! {a command}
For {you should understand}
the 'doctrinal communication'/testimony {Old and New Testaments}
about Jesus keeps on being
the 'spirit of'/'perceptive insight into' {pneuma}
prophecy {propheteia}
  {means the key to prophecy is the person of our Lord Jesus Christ
  and He is also the central theme of eschatology}."

11~~Then I {John} saw heaven opened,
and behold a white horse . . .
and He Who was mounted on it
  {our Lord Jesus Christ at the Second Advent}
is called Faithful {pistos} and True {alethinos}.
Consequently, with justice/righteousness
  {dikaiosune - 'total fulfillment of Spiritual Maturity'},
He {Jesus Christ} will judge {krino}
and He will make war {polemeo}.

12~~And His eyes {ophthalmos} . . . {were} a flame of fire
  {eyes normally represent knowledge - here Jesus as the righteous
  Judge - Judgment at the 2nd Advent},
and also on His head . . . {were} many crowns
  {the crowns represent at least the three royal warrants - Divine;
  Jewish and Battlefield Royalties (plus RBT says another unknown
  crown which has to do with infinity)}
and He has a {royal} title/name/personality/reputation {onoma}
which has been written/recorded . . .
which no one 'understood'/'had inherent knowledge' {oida}
except Himself.

13~~Furthermore, He {Jesus Christ} . . .
{was} wearing a robe {himation}
splattered/dipped {bapto} with blood
  {result of the Armageddon Campaign}.
Now His {royal} title/name/reputation {onoma}
has been designated/called {kaleo}
'O Logos Tou Theos'/'The Word of God'
  {related to the Shekinah Glory that is Jesus Christ - the Originator
  of Doctrine}.

14~~And the armies {strateuma} of heaven
followed Him on white horses . . .
clothed with fine linen
  {most prized clothing of the ancient world - represents ultimate
  sanctification} . . .
white {leukos - resurrection bodies of all believers}
and pure/clean
  {katharos - the ultimate sanctification of the eternal state - no Old
  Sin Nature or Sin}.

15~~And a sharp broadsword {rhomphaia}
comes out of His mouth {stoma}
  {the principal of freedom through military victory} . . .
in order that, with it {the sword}
He might 'strike with maximum violence' the '{gentile} nations'
and He shall rule them with an iron scepter
  {represents Jesus' strong authoritative rule in the Millennium}.
And {prior to this}
He treads down the winepress of the wine
  {grapes are crushed to make wine - picture of the defeat of the
  armies by Jesus}
of the wrath . . . even the anger of God . . .
the 'Omnipotent One' {pantokrator - the all powerful ruler}.

16~~Furthermore, He {Jesus Christ} has a royal title/name
which has been written on His robe/'military tunic' {himation}
  {common practice in this day for Royalty to do -
  to have his name and or title on his outer garment}
and on His thigh
  {common practice in this day for a sculptor to engrave in silver on
  his statue - this represents Jesus Christ being the Author of the
  next dispensation in which He will rule - the Millennium},
King over kings
  {a reference to our Lord's sovereignty over all human rulers},
and Lord over lords
  {our Lord's sovereignty over all angelic rulers, both fallen angels and
  elect angels}."

{Second Feast - Feast of the Vultures}
17-18~~Then I saw one {heis} angel
  {meaning a unique angel - most likely the King of Arms again}
standing in the sunlight/sunshine {helios}
  {See Joel 3 to see the supernatural darkness - it is now being
  replaced with sunshine which means the war is over and the
  enemy has been annihilated}
and he shouted with a loud voice
saying to all the birds that fly in mid-air/
'middle of the heavens'{mesouranema}
  {the carrion eating birds - vultures, ravens, eagles, hawks},
"Come and gather to the great feast/banquet from The God . . 18~~
in order that you {the carrion eating birds}
may eat the corpses/flesh {sarx} of kings
  {basileus - starting at the top and working down - the world rulers
  mentioned first},
the corpses of general officers
  {chiliarchos - 'commanders of 1000' and used for 1000 or more so
  would be the general officers here},
the corpses of the mighty
  {ischuros - here being used for company grade (lieutenants,
  Captains) and field grade (Majors Lt. Colonels and Colonels)},
both the corpses of horses and their riders
  {represents the mechanized troops - so horses would also include
  destruction of tanks, and troop carriers etc.}.
In fact the corpses of all free {eleutheros} and slaves {doulos}
  {here in context would represent the freely enlisted men and the
  draftees} . . .
both small and great
  {again in context, this would be all soldiers - those without rank
  and those with high rank}.

19~~Then I {John} saw the beast {dictator} {therion}
  {dictator of the Revived Roman Empire -
  one of the two chief co-agitators} ,
and the kings of the earth and their armies
who had been concentrated to make war
against Him {Jesus Christ}
Who is mounted on the horse
  {our Lord Jesus Christ at the 2nd Advent}
and against His army
  {Army Group A - Elect Angels
  Army Group B - Royal Family of God - Church Age Believers
  Army Group C - Family of God - Old Testament Believers and
  Tribulational Martyrs}.

{Judgment of the Satanic Conspirators/Co-Agitators}
20~~Then the beast {dictator}
was seized {Dictator of the Revived Roman Empire},
and with him the false prophet {Jewish Dictator and False Messiah}
who performed miracles 'in his presence'/'before him'
  {indicates demonic activities - Principal again of the Power of the
  Word over the Power of the Fantastic/Miraculous - what the Word
  says is what is real} ,
by which {the demonic powered miracles}
he had deceived those who received the mark of the beast
  {which indicated their volitional choice to join this ecumenical
  religion - computerized tyranny - whereby they received all the
  'apparent benefits' of doing so - strong business, strong
  social life, wealth - even life verses death - all you have to do is
  turn your back on God!},
even those who worshipped his idol
  {represents the idolatry which is part of the Phallic Cult (the Great
  Whore) - idolatry - which is being unfaithful to God - sex in
  idolatry - unfaithfulness to God and your spouse - and human
  sacrifice which is always an abomination. And this idol is called
  the abomination of desolation.}
Though still alive,
these two were thrown into the lake of fire burning with sulphur.

{Note: These two will be the ONLY creatures in the Lake of Fire for the 1000 years of the reign of Christ. And, this verse says they do not go to Hades first - as unbelievers who die physically would.}

{Guests of the Second Banquet Filled to the Maximum}
21~~And the rest {all the unbelievers of the world - the kings, their
  armies on and on this is the parable where the tares are removed
  and the wheat remains - only believers go into a new 'civilization'
  and the Millennium is also a new civilization}
were slaughtered with the sword
  {these souls will head to Hades for 1000 years}
of Him Who that sat on the horse . . .
which sword proceeded out of His mouth,
then all the birds {orneon - birds that ate carrion in context here}
were gorged/'filled to the maximum' {chortazo}
from eating their flesh/corpses {sarx}.
