Saying, We give thee thanks, O Lord God Almighty, which art, and wast, and art to come; because thou hast taken to thee thy great power, and hast reigned.
Thanks - for the answer to our prayers (Revelation 6:10-11), in destroying them which destroyed the earth (Revelation 11:18), preparing the way for the kingdom of thyself and thy saints.
And art to come. Omitted in 'Aleph (') A B C, Vulgate, Syriac, Cyprian, Andreas. The consummation having come, they do not address him as when it was still future. Compare Revelation 11:18, "is come." From the seventh trumpet He is to His people Yaah (H3050), the ever-present Lord WHO is, rather than Yahweh (H3068), 'who is was, and is to come.'
Taken to thee thy great power. "To thee" not in the Greek. Christ takes the kingdom as His own of right (Ezekiel 21:27).
