our_o god_n the_o meaning_n be_v this_o after_o john_n have_v see_v the_o utter_a overthrow_n of_o this_o great_a idolatrous_a city_n babylon_n immediate_o after_o he_o hear_v a_o great_a voice_n of_o

can_v be_v number_v and_o the_o holy_a angel_n say_v or_o give_v praise_n unto_o god_n in_o such_o like_a word_n as_o these_o allelujah_o salvation_n and_o glory_n and_o honour_n and_o power_n unto_o the_o lord_n our_o god_n all_o these_o sound_v forth_o their_o praise_n unto_o god_n together_o must_v needs_o be_v a_o great_a voice_n indeed_o only_o this_o be_v to_o be_v mind_v that_o none_o but_o the_o revelation_n of_o the_o spirit_n can_v hear_v it_o in_o heaven_n and_o yet_o be_v here_o upon_o earth_n so_o that_o this_o great_a voice_n john_n hear_v in_o heaven_n it_o be_v by_o those_o

for_o his_o judgement_n upon_o the_o whore_n and_o not_o only_o so_o but_o that_o god_n will_v reign_v now_o himself_o over_o you_o in_o eternal_a joy_n and_o glory_n and_o reign_v over_o the_o

do_v at_o this_o day_n or_o shall_v hereafter_o to_o the_o world_n end_n therefore_o if_o the_o reader_n do_v but_o understand_v the_o spiritual_a substance_n and_o meaning_n of_o john_n vision_n though_o not_o every_o particular_a circumstance_n i_o say_v it_o will_v give_v full_a satisfaction_n to_o the_o mind_n of_o man_n as_o to_o the_o scripture_n and_o to_o their_o eternal_a salvation_n the_o first_o thing_n that_o john_n see_v in_o his_o vision_n it_o be_v a_o door_n open_v in_o heaven_n now_o i_o will_v have_v the_o seed_n of_o faith_n to_o understand_v that_o there_o be_v a_o door_n belong_v to_o heaven_n and_o a_o door_n belong_v to_o hell_n therefore_o call_v in_o scripture_n the_o gate_n of_o heaven_n and_o of_o hell_n as_o christ_n say_v unto_o peter_n i_o have_v give_v thou_o the_o key_n of_o heaven_n and_o of_o hell_n so_o likewise_o when_o the_o five_o foolish_a virgin_n come_v to_o the_o door_n where_o the_o bridegroom_n be_v but_o the_o door_n be_v shut_v upon_o they_o so_o that_o they_o can_v not_o come_v in_o to_o that_o eternal_a marriage_n so_o that_o there_o be_v a_o door_n belong_v to_o heaven_n also_o there_o must_v be_v some_o body_n to_o open_v this_o door_n it_o be_v much_o like_a unto_o a_o king_n palace_n where_o no_o inferior_a person_n can_v see_v into_o it_o except_o the_o doorkeeper_n do_v open_a the_o door_n there_o be_v no_o earthly_a king_n palace_n but_o have_v a_o door_n to_o it_o neither_o can_v any_o man_n see_v into_o it_o except_o the_o door_n be_v open●●_n now_o as_o there_o be_v a_o door_n of_o earthly_a substance_n which_o may_v be_v see_v and_o feel_v belong_v to_o every_o earthly_a king_n palace_n the_o palace_n be_v earthly_a also_o though_o deck_v and_o set_v forth_o very_o glorious_o to_o the_o eye_n of_o sense_n and_o reason_n because_o it_o belong_v to_o reason_n kingdom_n so_o likewise_o there_o be_v as_o real_a a_o heavenly_a palace_n above_o and_o beyond_o the_o star_n where_o christ_n the_o king_n of_o heaven_n do_v sit_v upon_o his_o throne_n also_o there_o be_v a_o door_n belong_v to_o it_o of_o a_o spiritual_a and_o heavenly_a substance_n which_o may_v be_v see_v feel_v and_o understand_v by_o the_o eye_n of_o faith_n as_o the_o other_o be_v by_o the_o eye_n of_o reason_n therefore_o it_o be_v say_v in_o scripture_n by_o the_o apostle_n we_o speak_v the_o thing_n which_o we_o have_v see_v which_o we_o have_v hear_v which_o we_o have_v taste_v which_o we_o have_v handle_v of_o the_o word_n of_o life_n so_o that_o there_o be_v as_o real_a a_o spiritual_a substance_n to_o be_v see_v taste_v and_o handle_v by_o the_o seed_n of_o faith_n in_o the_o mind_n as_o there_o be_v temporal_a thing_n by_o the_o seed_n of_o reason_n likewise_o christ_n be_v call_v a_o door_n himself_o and_o he_o have_v the_o key_n of_o davia_n who_o open_v and_o no_o man_n shut_v and_o this_o be_v he_o that_o open_v the_o door_n of_o john_n understanding_n and_o let_v he_o see_v in_o a_o vision_n the_o glory_n of_o heaven_n and_o he_o that_o sit_v on_o the_o throne_n as_o you_o may_v see_v in_o the_o second_o verse_n for_o as_o soon_o as_o ever_o john_n have_v hear_v the_o voice_n that_o be_v as_o soon_o as_o ever_o the_o door_n of_o his_o understanding_n be_v open_v the_o door_n of_o heaven_n be_v open_v also_o and_o the_o door_n of_o heaven_n be_v open_v there_o be_v present_v in_o a_o vision_n to_o his_o sight_n few_o thing_n that_o must_v be_v hereafter_o now_o what_o those_o thing_n which_o must_v be_v hereafter_o be_v they_o be_v signify_v in_o the_o vision_n in_o the_o chapter_n follow_v for_o the_o voice_n which_o talk_v with_o john_n in_o the_o vision_n bid_v he_o come_v up_o hither_o and_o i_o will_v show_v the_o thing_n which_o must_v be_v hereafter_o and_o immediate_o john_n be_v in_o the_o spirit_n that_o be_v he_o be_v so_o ravish_v and_o wrap_v up_o in_o his_o spirit_n with_o the_o the_o sight_n of_o heaven_n and_o the_o glory_n thereof_o in_o the_o vision_n the_o door_n of_o heaven_n be_v open_v that_o he_o be_v as_o paul_n be_v whether_o in_o the_o body_n or_o out_o of_o the_o body_n he_o can_v not_o tell_v for_o john_n do_v see_v thing_n unutterable_a for_o indeed_o the_o thing_n of_o god_n become_v flesh_n and_o suffer_a death_n and_o the_o glorious_a effect_n thereof_o they_o be_v unutterable_a that_o be_v the_o tongue_n of_o man_n can_v explain_v it_o not_o as_o it_o be_v in_o itself_o but_o man_n that_o have_v write_v the_o scripture_n and_o have_v have_v vision_n and_o revelation_n of_o these_o heavenly_a thing_n they_o have_v express_v they_o to_o the_o capacity_n of_o man_n as_o they_o can_v by_o word_n so_o that_o man_n may_v believe_v the_o thing_n of_o god_n which_o be_v spiritual_a and_o eternal_a by_o word_n of_o mortal_a man_n like_o themselves_o as_o man_n do_v understand_v one_o another_o in_o the_o thing_n of_o this_o world_n and_o the_o gift_n of_o interpretation_n of_o scripture_n which_o be_v write_v by_o revelation_n and_o vision_n i_o say_v it_o be_v more_o profitable_a to_o man_n then_o the_o scripture_n themselves_o for_o what_o profit_n be_v it_o to_o a_o man_n to_o read_v another_o man_n revelation_n or_o vision_n and_o know_v nothing_o of_o it_o himself_o therefore_o interpretation_n of_o scripture_n be_v the_o best_a and_o most_o profitable_a gift_n unto_o the_o seed_n of_o faith_n now_o adays_o to_o lead_v they_o unto_o their_o eternal_a rest_n therefore_o to_o unfold_v something_o more_o of_o john_n vision_n in_o the_o second_o verse_n and_o immediate_o he_o be_v in_o the_o spirit_n and_o behold_v a_o throne_n be_v set_v in_o heaven_n and_o one_o sit_v on_o the_o throne_n and_o in_o the_o 3_o verse_n he_o tell_v what_o he_o be_v like_o that_o sit_v on_o the_o

be_v the_o seven_o spirit_n of_o god_n and_o in_o the_o 6_o verse_n and_o before_o the_o throne_n there_o be_v a_o sea_n of_o glass_n like_o unto_o crystal_n and_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o the_o throne_n and_o round_o about_o the_o throne_n be_v four_o beast_n full_a of_o eye_n before_o and_o behind_o and_o in_o the_o 7_o verse_n and_o the_o first_o beast_n be_v like_o a_o lion_n and_o the_o second_o beast_n like_o a_o calf_n and_o the_o three_o beast_n have_v a_o face_n like_o a_o man_n and_o the_o four_o beast_n be_v like_o a_o fly_a eagle_n the_o 8_o verse_n and_o the_o four_o beast_n

which_o be_v and_o be_v and_o be_v to_o come_v the_o 9_o verse_n and_o when_o those_o beast_n give_v glory_n and_o honour_n and_o thanks_o to_o he_o that_o sit_v on_o the_o throne_n who_o live_v for_o

thereon_o you_o may_v remember_v how_o i_o have_v show_v before_o that_o there_o be_v throne_n in_o heaven_n as_o there_o be_v here_o in_o earth_n and_o there_o be_v a_o throne_n in_o special_a for_o the_o king_n of_o heaven_n as_o there_o be_v for_o a_o king_n here_o on_o earth_n and_o he_o which_o john_n see_v to_o sit_v upon_o the_o throne_n in_o heaven_n it_o be_v no_o other_o but_o the_o

other_o glorious_a expression_n which_o be_v only_o to_o set_v forth_o the_o glory_n of_o he_o that_o sit_v upon_o the_o throne_n and_o in_o the_o 4_o verse_n round_o about_o the_o throne_n be_v
