In this week’s study, I begin in Chapter 4, Vision taking place in heaven. Below is an outline of the structure of the Book of Revelation:
A. Introduction (ch. 1)
B. The People on the earth (2, 3)
C1. In Heaven (4, 5)
D1. On Earth (6:1-7:8)
C2. In Heaven (7:9-8:6)
D2. On Earth (8:7-11:14)
C3. In Heaven (11:15-19)
D3. On Earth (11:19)
C4. In Heaven (12:1-12)
D4. On Earth (12:13-13:18)
C5. In Heaven (14:1-5)
D5. On Earth (14:6-20)
C6. In Heaven (15:1-8)
D6. On Earth (16:1-18:24)
C7. In Heaven (19:1-16)
D7. On Earth (19:17-20:15)
B1. The People on the New Earth (21:1-22:5)
A1. Conclusion (22:6-21)
A. 4:1-8. The Throne.
A | a | 1-3-. On it: the Enthroned One.
b | d | -3. Round it: a Rainbow.
e | 4. Round it: 24 Thrones.
c | 5-. Out of it: Lightnings.
b | d | -5. Before it: Seven Lamps.
e | 6-. Before it: a Crystal Sea.
a | -6-8-. In the midst and round about it: the four Zoa.
1 After = “meta” denotes association and companionship with. Now with the Accusative, it means “after”, always in connection with time.
This = these things. Here is the transition from “the things which are” in Rev. 1:19, the existing state of the seven churches,
I and thee = John
Looked = “I-do” to see: by implying no the mere at of looking, but the actual perception of the object.
Behold = “idoo” calling attention to something external to one’s self. John may actually be witnessing this door being open.
Door = A couple of thoughts on the door. Could this be in reference to that key of David which locks and unlocks are doors? Or could this be the true door of which Yahshua speaks of in John 10:9, “I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture”? Is it possible that this door is closed to us here on earth that we can see what goes on in heaven?
2 Immediately I was in Spirit = I was transformed into another dimension, not of the flesh body.
My intention is to take this study to a deep level. Deeper than most of you are used to! I am asking no one to agree with me; however I do ask that you check every detail that I present out for yourself.
Don’t end up like those in Hosea 4:6 ‘My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God (Elohim), I will also forget thy children.’
But, be like those in 2Timothy 2:15 ‘Study to shew thyself approved unto God (Yahweh), a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.’
