Revelation:22:4
rwp@Revelation:22:4 @{They shall see his face} (\opsontai to prospon autou\). Future active of \hora\. This vision of God was withheld from Moses (Exodus:33:20,23|), but promised by Jesus to the pure in heart (Matthew:5:8|) and mentioned in strkjv@Hebrews:12:14| as possible only to the holy, and promised in strkjv@Psalms:17:15|. Even here on earth we can see God in the face of Christ (2Corinthians:4:6|), but now in the New Jerusalem we can see Christ face to face (1Corinthians:13:12|), even as he is after we are made really like him (2Corinthians:3:18; strkjv@Romans:8:29; strkjv@1John:3:2|). It is anthropomorphic language, to be sure, but it touches the essential reality of religion. "The supreme felicity is reached, immediate presence with God and the Lamb" (Beckwith). {His name on their foreheads} (\to onoma autou epi tn metpn autn\). As in strkjv@3:12; strkjv@7:3; strkjv@14:1|.
