kai hoi loiPOI a-pekTANth*e*-san [615] en t*e* 'romPHAIa [4501] tou
ka-th*e*MEnou
ePI tou HIPpou,

*21 and the rest were killed with the horseman's sword,*

t*e* e-xelTHOUs*e* ek tou STOma-tos [4750] auTOU:

*which came forth out of his :mouth:*

kai PANta ta ORne-a [3732] e-chorTASth*e*-san [5526] ek tou sarK*O*N auT*O*
N.

*and all the birds were filled with their :flesh.*



 *NOTE**: *19:1-10 - See what is released in heaven once the great harlot
has been thoroughly judged upon earth! Justice and vengeance has now taken
place. Not too often is “Hallelujah” proclaimed in the NT, but *here* - 4
times heaven hears this triumphant word declared! Worship from the 24 elders
and four living beings comes to the height. From the throne, praise is
commanded. And the marriage of the Lamb is perhaps the greatest event of
all. All of this as revealed by the Lamb's angel is so great that John falls
into error like the Colossians in worshiping him instead of God.


 19:11-16 - Now with His bride, Christ returns to work judgment on the
nations at Armageddon. The description of our Glorified Lord Jesus is
awesome, and the Judgment of the nations at Armageddon spelled out in
detail.


 *I. 19:17-21*- A *special* paragraph is allocated by the Lord Jesus through
His angel as a follow-up on Armageddon. It is given to the birds of the air
to clean up from the dead bodies of all classes. But the final judgment upon
the Beast and False prophet vindicates the Righteousness and Justice of our
God. Right *does* triumph over wrong! The Hitlers and the Hamans *do* in the
end receive their just desserts. And who love God *and His Word* will
*not*in the end be disappointed. No wonder this last book of the Bible
is so
hated by liberal and humanistic thinkers! But the righteous in the light of
this can be *bold as a lion*! J.A.W.
