Revelation 19:1–10

This section expands on the message of the sixth song of response (Revelation 18:20; see study note on Revelation 18:1–24), which called for rejoicing. Various groups offer praises to the Lord. The praises can be divided into two sections:

thankfulness for the destruction of evildoers (Revelation 19:1–4) and
thankfulness for the reward of God’s people (19:5–8).
