Genesis 1:31

Study

       

31 And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.

Commentary

 

Resurrection, the first

  

'The first resurrection,' mentioned in Revelation 20:5, 6, does not mean a first resurrection, but the essence and primary part of resurrection, which is salvation and eternal life. There is only one resurrection to life. A second does not happen, and is not mentioned anywhere in the Bible.

Commentary

 

Rebuke of Jehovah

  

'The rebuke of Jehovah,' as in Isaiah 50:2, signifies the destruction and abolition of the church, which takes place when there is no saving knowledge or perception of truth and good.

(References: Apocalypse Explained 513)
