Revelation 5:1 - Forerunner Commentary

Revelation 5:1

The Lamb Takes the Scroll

1 And I saw in the right hand of Him who sat on the throne ^aa scroll written inside and on the back, ^bsealed with seven seals.

2 Then I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, ^a“Who is worthy to open the scroll and to loose its seals?”

3 And no one in heaven or on the earth or under the earth was able to open the scroll, or to look at it.

4 So I wept much, because no one was found worthy to open¹ and read the scroll, or to look at it.
