Revelation 15:3

And they sing the song of Moses the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, Great and marvellous are thy works, Lord God Almighty; just and true are thy ways, thou King of saints. THE SONG OF MOSES ... AND ... THE LAMB. The New Testament song which the Lamb shall lead, "the Captain of our salvation" (as Moses was leader of Israel), and in which those who conquer through Him () join (), is antitype to the triumphant Old Testament song of Moses and Israel at the Red Sea, (Ex 15.) The Old and New Testament churches are essentially one in conflicts and triumphs. The two appear joined in this phrase, as in the "twenty-four elders." Isaiah 12:1 foretells the...

1-4 Seven angels appeared in heaven; prepared to finish the destruction of antichrist. As the measure of Babylon's sins was filled up, it finds the full measure of Divine wrath. While believers stand in this world, in times of trouble, as upon a sea of glass mingled with fire, they may look forward to their final deliverance, while new mercies call forth new hymns of praise. The more we know of God's wonderful works, the more we shall praise his greatness as the Lord God Almighty, the Creator and Ruler of all worlds; but his title of Emmanuel, the King of saints, will make him dear to us. Who that considers the power of God's wrath, the value of his favour, or the glory of his holiness, would refuse to fear and honour him alone? His praise is above heaven and earth....

Verse Revelation 15:3. _THEY SING THE SONG OF MOSES_] That which Moses sang, Exodus 15:1, when he and the Israelites, by the miraculous power of God, had got safely through the Red Sea, and saw their enemies all destroyed. _AND THE SONG OF THE LAMB_] The same song adapted to the state of the suffering, but now delivered Christians. _GREAT AND MARVELLOUS_ are _thy works_] God's works are descriptive of his _infinite power_ and _wisdom_. _LORD GOD ALMIGHTY_] Nearly the same as _Jehovah, God of hosts_. _JUST AND TRUE_ ARE _THY WAYS_] Every step God takes in grace or providence is according to _justice_, and he carefully accomplishes all his th

AND THEY SING THE SONG OF MOSES THE SERVANT OF GOD - A song of thanksgiving and praise, such as Moses taught the Hebrew people to sing after their deliverance from Egyptian bondage. See Exodus 15. The meaning here is, not that they would sing that identical song, but that, as Moses taught the people to celebrate their deliverance with an appropriate hymn of praise, the redeemed would celebrate their delivery and redemption in a similar manner. There is an obvious propriety here in referring to the “song of Moses,” because the circumstances are very similar; the occasion of the redemption from that formidable anti-Christian power here referred to, had a strong resemblance to the rescue from Egyptian bondage. AND THE SONG OF THE LAMB - The hymn which is sung in honor of the Lamb, as their great deliverer. Compare the notes on...

EXPOSITION REVELATION 15:1 AND I SAW ANOTHER SIGN IN HEAVEN. The last time we had this expression was in Revelation 12:1., where the history of the war between Satan and the Church was begun. Once more we have a new departure, the seer again, as it were, returning to the beginning? in order to trace the course of the punishments inflicted on men for their worship of the devil. Revelation 15:1. gives a short summary of this, which is expanded in Revelation 16:1.; and it is introduced, as usual, by a vision of the saints in glory, in order to comfort and s

AND THEY SING THE SONG OF MOSES THE SERVANT OF GOD,.... Not that in Deuteronomy 32:1 but that in Exodus 15:1 and the sense is, either that they observed the law of Moses, which he as a servant in the Lord's house faithfully delivered, and kept it distinct from the Gospel, and did not blend them together, as in the times before; or rather, that they sung a song like that of Moses, and on a like occasion. Pharaoh was the very picture of the pope of Rome; his oppression and cruel usage of the Israelites represent the tyranny and cruelty of the Romish antichrist; and the deliverance of Israel out of Egypt, and the destruction of the Egyptians at the Red sea, which occasioned the song of Moses, were an emblem of God's bringing his people out of antichristian bondage, and of the ruin of antichrist, upon which t

THE PREPARATION FOR THE VISION OF THE BOWLS. Revelation 15:1. which are the last: an indication that we are nearing the end of the tragedy. Revelation 15:2. Before the plagues are poured out from the bowls we have a new vision of heaven and the triumphs of the redeemed. GLASSY SEA: _ cf._ Revelation 4:6. MINGLED WITH FIRE: this addition to the description of the _heavenly_ sea is difficult to explain. The crystal light of the sea of glass is reddened as by fire, and The red glow on the sea spoke of the fire through which the martyrs passed, and yet more of the wrath about to fall upon the world which had condemned them (Swete). This seems to be the only possible explan

"And. saw as it were. sea of glass mingled with fire; and them that had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name, stand on the sea of glass, having the harps of God. And they sing the song of Moses the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, Great and marvelous are thy works, Lord God Almighty; just and true are thy ways, thou King of saints."--15:2-3. The scene opens in heaven. The apostle beholds. multitude of joyous ones having the harps or God, and singing the song of Moses and the Lamb. We are left, in no doubt concerning the identity of these singers. They are "them in who had gotten the victory over the beast and his image, and over his mark and the number of his name." The ground of their rejoicing is also recorded. "All nations shall come and worship before thee; _for thy judgments are made manifest._ " T...
