Revelation 19:21

And the remnant were slain with the sword of him that sat upon the horse, which sword proceeded out of his mouth: and all the fowls were filled with their flesh. THE REMNANT - `the rest;' i:e., 'the kings and their armies' (), one indiscriminate mass. A solemn confirmation of ....

11-21 Christ, the glorious Head of the church, is described as on a white horse, the emblem of justice and holiness. He has many crowns, for he is King of kings, and Lord of lords. He is arrayed in a vesture dipped in his own blood, by which he purchased his power as Mediator; and in the blood of his enemies, over whom he always prevails. His name is "The Word of God;" a name none fully knows but himself; only this we know, that this Word was God manifest in the flesh; but his perfections cannot be fully understood by any creature. Angels and saints follow, and are like Christ in their armour of purity and righteousness. The threatenings of the written word he is going to execute on his enemies. The ensigns of his authority are his name; asserting his authority and power, warning the most powerful princes to submit, or they must fall before him. The powers of earth and hell make their u...

Verse Revelation 19:21. _WITH THE SWORD OF HIM THAT SAT UPON THE HORSE_] He who sat on the white horse is Christ; and his _sword_ is his _word_-the unadulterated _Gospel_....

AND THE REMNANT - The remainder of the assembled hosts - the army at large, in contradistinction from the leaders. WERE SLAIN WITH THE SWORD - Cut down with the sword; not rescued for protracted torment. A proper distinction is thus made between the deceived multitudes and the leaders who had deceived them. OF HIM THAT SAT UPON THE HORSE - The Messiah, Revelation 19:11. WHICH SWORD PROCEEDED OUT OF HIS MOUTH - notes on Revelation 19:15. That is, they were cut down by a word. They fell before him as he spake, as if they were slain by the sword. Perhaps this indicates that the effect that is to be produced when these great powers shal

EXPOSITION REVELATION 19:1 AND AFTER THESE THINGS I HEARD A GREAT VOICE OF MUCH PEOPLE IN HEAVEN, SAYING; _after these things I heard, as it were, a great voice of a great multitude, _etc. The usual introduction to a new phase of a vision (see Revelation 4:1, etc.). The "great voice," as usual, characteristic of the heavenly utterances (see Revelation 5:2, etc.). Again, we are not told whose the utterance is. It may well be that of all the heavenly inhabitants and saints in glory (cf Revelation 7:9). As usual in the Apocalypse, at the termination of a description o

AND THE REMNANT WERE SLAIN,.... Not only the kings of the earth, and their armies, that will now be gathered together, but all the remains of Papists, Pagans, and Mahometans, in the several parts of the world, even all the enemies of Christ: these will be slain WITH THE SWORD OF HIM THAT SAT UPON THE HORSE; upon the white horse, as the Ethiopic version reads; the Arabic version reads, that sat upon the throne, WHICH SWORD PROCEEDETH OUT OF HIS MOUTH, Revelation 19:15 and is the word of God, or the judiciary sentence of Christ according to it; and the meaning is, either that these shall be subdued, conquered, and converted by the word; and so are fitly called a "remnant", a remnant according to the election of grace among the antichristian party; and which sense agrees with...

THE VISION OF THE TRIUMPHANT CHRIST. This paragraph really forms an introduction to the closing section of the book, where at last, after many pauses and delays, we reach the real _dé nouement._ The last act of the drama falls into five scenes, of which this is the first. In this scene Christ is portrayed as a warrior riding on a white horse to the final conflict with Anti-christ. REVELATION 19:11. A WHITE HORSE: the same imagery is used in Revelation 6:2, but the white horse there does not represent Christ but the spirit of militarism. FAITHFUL AND TRUE: _ cf. Revelation 1:5_, Revelation 3:7;
