4 Con thứ nhứt giống như sư tử, và có cánh chim ưng. Ta nhìn xem cho đến khi những cánh nó bị nhổ, nó bị cất lên khỏi đất, đứng hai chơn như người ta, và nó được ban cho lòng loài người.

23. Amen. This symbolizes a Divine confirmation springing from truth, thus from Himself.

"Amen" signifies truth, and because the Lord was the very embodiment of truth, therefore He so often said, "Assuredly, I say to you," 1 as in Matthew 5:18, 26; 6:16; 10:23, 42; 17:20; 18:13, 18; 25:12, cf. 28:20; John 3:11; 5:19, 24-25; 6:26, 32, 47, 53; 8:34, 51, 58; 10:7; 12:24; 13:16, 20-21, cf. 21:18, 25; and in the following passage in the book of Revelation, "These things says the Amen, the Faithful and True Witness" (Revelation 3:14), which is to say, the Lord.

That the Lord is the very embodiment of truth, He Himself teaches in John 14:6; 17:19.
