Revelation 12:17 - Arno Geneva Study Bible

Bible Comments

(22) And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.

(22) Being set on fire by this means, he began to be more mad, and because he perceived that his purpose against the Christian Church of the Jewish remnant was come to nothing, he resolved to fall on her seed, that is, the Church of the Gentiles, gathered by God and the holy members of the church. This is that other part, as is said in (Revelation 12:13) in which the purpose of Satan is shown in (Revelation 12:17) and his attempt, in (Revelation 13:1).
