The Throne Room of Heaven

1 After these things I looked, and behold, a door standing aopen in heaven. And the first voice which I heard was like a btrumpet speaking with me, saying, “Come up here, and I will show you things which must take place after this.”  
2 Immediately aI was in the Spirit; and behold, ba throne set in heaven, and One sat on the throne.  
3 1And He who sat there was alike a jasper and a sardius stone in appearance; band there was a rainbow around the throne, in appearance like an emerald.  
4 aAround the throne were twenty-four thrones, and on the thrones I saw twenty-four elders sitting, bclothed in white robes; and they had crowns of gold on their heads.

Revelation 4:2

Revelation 4:1 The Open Door in Heaven SUMMARY OF REVELATION 4: The Voice from Heaven. The Throne and He Who Sat on the Throne. The Twenty-four Elders. The Four Living Forms. Their Cry Night and Day. The Doxology of the Twenty-four Elders. After this. "After these things" (Revised Version). After the letters to the churches had been dictated. The "things which must be after this" are yet to be shown. And, behold, I looked. Rather, "I saw in vision". And a door [was] opened in heaven. Heaven standing open so that the throne within could be seen. The first voice which I heard. The same voice that he had heard at first. See Revelation 1:10. Which said, Come up hither. Through the opened door. I will shew thee things which must be hereafter. Hence, we know that what John sees in the vision just opening belongs to events still future when he wrote.
