geneva@Revelation:11:1 @ And there (note:)The authority of the intended revelation being declared, together with the necessity of that calling which was particularly imposed on John after which follows the history of the estate of Christ his Church, both conflicting or warring, and overcoming in Christ. For the true Church of Christ is said to fight against that which is falsely so called, over which Antichrist rules, Christ Jesus overthrowing Antichrist by the spirit of his mouth: and Christ is said to overcome most gloriously until he shall slay Antichrist by the appearance of his coming, as the apostle teaches in (2Th_2:8). So this history has two parts: One of the state of the Church conflicting with temptations until Chapter 16. The other of the state of the same church obtaining victory, thence to Chapter 20. The first part has two sections most conveniently distributed into their times, of which the first contains a history of the Christian Church for 1260 years, what time the gospel of Christ was as it were taken up from among men into heaven: the second contains a history of the same Church to the victory perfected. These two sections are briefly, though distinctly propounded in this chapter, but both of them are discoursed after in due order. For we understand the state of the Church conflicting, out of Chapters 12 and 13, and of the same growing out of afflictions, out of Chapters 14 to 16. Neither did John unknowingly join together the history of these two times in this chapter, because here is spoken of prophecy, which all confess to be but one just and immutable in the Church, and which Christ commanded to be continual. The history of the former time reaches to (Rev_11:2-14), the latter is set down in the rest of this chapter (Rev_11:15-19). In the former are shown these things: the calling of the servants of God in (Rev_11:4) the conflicts which the faithful must undergo in their calling, for Christ and his Church, thence to (Rev_11:5-10) and their resurrection, and receiving up into heaven to (Rev_11:11-14). In the calling of the servants of God, two things are mentioned: the begetting and settling of the Church in two verses, and the education of it in two verses. The begetting of the Church is here commended to John by sign and by speech: the sign is a measuring rod, and the speech a commandment to measure the Temple of God, that is, to reduce the same to a new form: because the Gentiles are already entered into the Temple of Jerusalem, and shall shortly defile and overthrow it completely.(:note) was given me a reed like unto a rod: and the angel stood, saying, Rise, and Either that of Jerusalem's, which was a figure of the Church of Christ, or that heavenly model in (Rev_11:19) but I like the first better, and the things following all agree to it. The sense therefore is, you see all things in God's house, almost from the passion of Christ, to be disordered: and not only the city of Jerusalem, but also the court of the Temple is trampled under foot by the nations, and by profane men whether Jews or strangers: and that only this Temple, that is, the body of the Temple, with the altar, and a small company of good men who truly worship God, do now remain, whom God sanctifies and confirms by his presence. Measure therefore this, even this true Church, or rather the true type of the true Church, omitting the rest, and so describe all things from me, that the true Church of Christ may be as it were a very little centre, and the Church of Antichrist as the circle of the centre, every way in length and breadth compassing about the same, that by way of prophecy you may so declare openly, that the state of the Temple of God, and the faithful who worship him, that is, of the Church, is much more upright than the Church of Antichrist. measure the temple of God, and the altar, and them that worship therein.

geneva@Revelation:11:8 @ And their dead bodies [shall lie] in the (note:)That is, openly at Rome: where at that time was a most great crowd of people, the year of Jubile being then first ordained by Boniface to the same end, in the year 1300, an example of which is read in chapter 1 «Extra, de poenitentys strkjv@066:011:008 And their corpses shall lie in the streetes of the great citie, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where our Lord also was crucified. amp; remissionibus.» So by one act he committed two wrongs against Christ, both abolishing his truth by restoring the type of the Jubile, and triumphing over his members by wicked superstition. O religious heart! Now that we should understand the things of Rome, John himself is the author, both after in the seventeenth chapter almost throughout, and also in the restriction now next following, when he says, it is that great city (as he calls it) (Rev_17:18) and is spiritually termed Sodom and Egypt: and that spiritually (for that must here again be repeated from before) Christ was there crucified. For the two first names signify spiritual wickednesses: the latter signifies the show and pretence of good, that is, of Christian and sound religion. Sodom signifies most licentious impiety and in the most confident glorying of that city, as it were in true religion, being yet full of falsehood and ungodliness. Now who is ignorant that these things do rather, and better fit Rome, than any other city? The commendations of the city of Rome for many years past, are publicly notorious, which are not for me to gather together. This only I will say, that he long since did very well see what Rome is, who upon leaving, used these verses: «Roma vale, vidi, Satis est vidisse: revertar, Quumleno, meretrix, scurra, cinadus ero.» «Now farewell Rome, I have seen thee, it was enough to see: I will return when as I mean, bawd, harlot knave to be»(:note) street of the great city, which After a more secret type of meaning and understanding. spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, Namely in his parts, as also he said to Saul in (Act_9:5) where also our Lord was crucified.

geneva@Revelation:12:1 @ And (note:)Until now it has been the general prophecy, comprehended in two parts, as I showed in (Rev. strkjv@11:1-19). Now will be declared the first part of this prophecy, in this and the next chapter and the latter part in the fourteenth, fifteenth and sixteenth chapters. To the first part, which is about the conflicting or militant Church belong two things. The beginning and the progress of the same in conflicts and Christian combats. Of which two the beginning of the Church is described in this chapter, and the progress of it in the chapter following. The beginning of the Christian Church we define as the first moment of the conception of Christ, until the time in which this church was weaned and taken away from the breast or milk of her mother: which is the time when the Church of the Jews with their city and temple was overthrown by the judgment of God. So we have in this chapter the story of 69 years and upwards. There are three parts to this chapter. The first, is the history of the conception and pregnancy in (Rev_12:1-4). The second, a history of the birth from (Rev_12:5-12). The third is about the woman who gave birth, to the end of the chapter. These several parts each have their conflicts. Therefore in the first part are two verses: and another of the lying in wait of the dragon against the child about to be born, in the next two verses. In the first point are these things, the description of the mother (Rev_12:1) and the pains of childbirth in (Rev_12:2) all shown to John from heaven.(:note) there appeared a great wonder in heaven; A type of the true holy Church which was at that time in the Jewish nation. This Church (as is the state of the Catholic church) did in itself shine with glory given by God, immutable and unchangeable, and possessed the kingdom of heaven as the heir of it. a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars:

geneva@Revelation:12:7 @ And there was war in heaven: (note:)Christ is the Prince of angels and head of the Church, who bears that iron rod (Rev_12:5). Also {{See Dan_12:1}}. In this verse a description of the battle and of the victory in the two verses following (Rev_12:8-9). The psalmist noted this battle as did Paul; (Psa_68:9; Eph_4:8; Col_2:15).(:note) Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels,

geneva@Revelation:14:1 @ And I looked, and, lo, a Lamb (note:)The history of the Church of Christ being finished for more than a 1300 years at which time Boniface the eighth lived as has been said: there remains the rest of the history of the conflicting or militant church, from there to the time of the last victory in three chapters. For first of all, as the foundation of the whole history, is described the standing of the Lamb with his army and retinue in five verses, after his worthy acts which he has done and yet does in most mighty manner, while he overthrows Antichrist with the spirit of his mouth, in the rest of this chapter and in the two following. To the description of the Lamb, are propounded three things: his situation, place and attendance: for the rest are expounded in the former visions, especially in the fifth chapter.(:note) stood on the mount Sion, and with him Prepared to do his office see (Act_7:56), in the midst of the church, which mount Zion pictured before. an hundred forty [and] four thousand, having his Father's This retinue of the Lamb is described first by divine mark (as before in) (Rev_7:2) in this verse. Then by divine occupation, in that every one in his retinue most earnestly and sweetly (Rev_14:2) glorify the Lamb with a special song before God and his elect angels. Flesh and blood cannot hear this song, nor understand, (Rev_14:3). Lastly by their deeds done before, and their sanctification in that they were virgins, pure from spiritual and bodily fornication, that is, from impiety and unrighteousness. They followed the Lamb as a guide to all goodness, cleaved to him and are holy to him, as by grace redeemed by him. In truth and simplicity of Christ they have exercised all these things, sanctimony of life, the guidance of the Lamb, a thankful remembrance of redemption by him and finally (to conclude in a word) they are blameless before the Lord, (Rev_14:4-5). name written in their foreheads.

geneva@Revelation:18:9 @ And (note:)The circumstances following the fall of Babylon, or the consequences of it (as I distinguished them in) {{See Rev_18:4}} are two. Namely the lamentation of the wicked to (Rev_18:5-19) and the rejoicing of the godly in (Rev_18:20). This sorrowful lamentation, according to those that lament, has three parts: the first of which is the mourning of the kings and mighty men of the earth, (Rev_18:9-10): The second is, the lamentation of the merchants that trade by land, to the sixteenth verse: (Rev_18:11-16). The third is, the wailing of those that trade by sea, in (Rev_18:16-18). In each of those the cause and manner of their mourning is described in order, according to the condition of those that mourn, with observation of that which best agrees to them.(:note) the kings of the earth, who have committed fornication and lived deliciously with her, shall bewail her, and lament for her, when they shall see the smoke of her burning,

geneva@Revelation:21:1 @ And (note:)Now follows the second part of the history prophetic of the future estate of the Church in heaven after the last judgment, to (Rev_21:2; Rev_22:5).

Before the state of the Church described, is set down the state of the whole world, that there shall be a new heaven, and a new earth; (Isa_65:17; Isa_66:22; 2Pe_3:13) and this is the seat or place of the Church, in which righteousness shall dwell.(:note) I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.
