About the passage
Revelation 19: Two suppers and the rider called the Word of God
Heaven answers Babylon's fall with repeated Alleluias whose reasons are stated: God's judgments are true and righteous, and the blood of his servants has been answered. The scene then turns from the fallen city to the marriage of the Lamb, where the bride receives clean fine linen and guests are blessed at the supper. John briefly misdirects worship toward the angel and is sharply corrected. Heaven opens again, this time upon a white horse and a rider called Faithful and True, the Word of God, King of kings and Lord of lords. His sword comes from his mouth, and his judgment is described as righteous. The chapter ends by placing two suppers against one another. The marriage feast celebrates union with the Lamb, while birds are summoned over the forces gathered against him. The Book of Revelation gives the hostile coalition much preparation but very little battle. The beast and false prophet are simply taken.
