Revelation 19:12
Compare all
10 And aI fell at his feet to worship him. But he said to me, b“See that you do not do that! I am your cfellow servant, and of your brethren dwho have the testimony of Jesus. Worship God! For the etestimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.”  

Christ on a White Horse

11 aNow I saw heaven opened, and behold, ba white horse. And He who sat on him was called cFaithful and True, and din righteousness He judges and makes war.  
12 aHis eyes were like a flame of fire, and on His head were many crowns. bHe had a name written that no one knew except Himself.  
13 aHe was clothed with a robe dipped in blood, and His name is called bThe Word of God.  
14 aAnd the armies in heaven, bclothed in fine linen, white and clean, followed Him on white horses.  
15 Now aout of His mouth goes a sharp sword, that with it He should strike the nations. And bHe Himself will rule them with a rod of iron. cHe Himself treads the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.  
16 And aHe has on His robe and on His thigh a name written: bKING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS.  

The Beast and His Armies Defeated

17 Then I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the birds that fly in the midst of heaven, a“Come and gather together for the1 supper of the great God,  
18 athat you may eat the flesh of kings, the flesh of captains, the flesh of mighty men, the flesh of horses and of those who sit on them, and the flesh of all people,1 free and slave, both small and great.”

Revelation 19:12

A flame of fire (floc purov). As in the opening vision of Christ in Revelation 1:14 (Revelation 2:18).

Many diadems (diadhmata polla). A new feature, but the dragon has a diadem on each of his seven heads (Revelation 12:3) and the first beast one upon each of his ten horns (Revelation 13:1). So the victorious Messiah will wear many royal diadems and not mere crowns, because he is King of kings (Revelation 19:16).

And he hath (kai exwn). Nominative active present participle of exw either used absolutely as an independent verb (like indicative) or in an anacoluthon, though autou (his) is genitive.

A name written (onoma gegrammenon). Perfect passive participle of grafw as in Revelation 2:17 (cf. Revelation 3:12).

But he himself (ei mh autov). "Except himself" (common ellipsis of the verb after ei mh, "if not"). See Revelation 2:17; Revelation 3:12 for the new name there described. See Revelation 14:1 for the name of Christ on the forehead of the 144,000, and Revelation 17:5 for the name on the forehead of the harlot. This word here supplements what Jesus says in Matthew 11:27.
