Revelation 19:9

And he saith Who speaks? Plainly an angel (see Revelation 19:10), presumably the angel of Revelation 17:1.

Blessed are they, &c. St John, and "they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein" (Revelation 1:3) are made to realise heartily what our Lord's fellow-guest (St Luke 14:15) said without seeing the full force of his own words. Of course, when we reduce the image to plain prose, "they that are called" are the same as the Bride: while St Paul again speaks of them as her children.

These are the true sayings of God More literally, These words are [some add "the"] true (words) of God.
