Revelation 3:11 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

OLBGrk;

Behold, I come quickly; tacu, which certainly is the same with en tacei; and it might be as well concluded, that the day of judgment should come by that time Rome pagan should cease, as that all things written in this book had their accomplishment in that time, because Christ told John they should come to pass en tacei, Revelation 1:1, Revelation 22:6. No other coming of Christ, but his coming to the last judgment, can be here meant. Hold that fast which thou hast; kratei, hold with a strong hand the doctrine of faith, which thou yet hast, pure, and thy pure worship, and discipline, and a pure conscience. That no man take thy crown; that thou mayest not lose that reward which shall be the portion of those that persevere to the end, and of those only.

Revelation 3:11

11 Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.
