Vision of the Son of Man

9 I, John,1 both your brother and acompanion in the tribulation and bkingdom and patience of Jesus Christ, was on the island that is called Patmos for the word of God and for the testimony of Jesus Christ.  
10 aI was in the Spirit on bthe Lord’s Day, and I heard behind me ca loud voice, as of a trumpet,  
11 saying,1 “I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last,” and, “What you see, write in a book and send it to the seven churches2 which are in Asia: to Ephesus, to Smyrna, to Pergamos, to Thyatira, to Sardis, to Philadelphia, and to Laodicea.”  
12 Then I turned to see the voice that spoke with me. And having turned aI saw seven golden lampstands,  
13 aand in the midst of the seven lampstands bOne like the Son of Man, cclothed with a garment down to the feet and dgirded about the chest with a golden band.  
14 His head and ahair were white like wool, as white as snow, and bHis eyes like a flame of fire;  
15 aHis feet were like fine brass, as if refined in a furnace, and bHis voice as the sound of many waters;

Revelation 1:11

Saying, What thou seest - And hearest. He both saw and heard. This command extends to the whole book. All the books of the New Testament were written by the will of God; but none were so expressly commanded to be written. In a book - So all the Revelation is but one book: nor did the letter to the angel of each church belong to him or his church only; but the whole book was sent to them all. To the churches - Hereafter named; and through them to all churches, in all ages and nations. To Ephesus - Mr. Thomas Smith, who in the year 1671 travelled through all these cities, observes, that from Ephesus to Smyrna is forty - six English miles; from Smyrna to Pergamos, sixty - four; from Pergamos to Thyatira, forty - eight; from Thyatira to Sardis, thirty - three; from Sardis to Philadelphia, twenty - seven; from Philadelphia to Laodicea, about forty - two miles.
