rwp@Revelation:11:10 @{They that dwell upon the earth} (\hoi katoikountes epi ts gs\). Present active articular participle of \katoike\, "an Apocalyptic formula" (Swete) for the non-Christian world (3:10; strkjv@6:10; strkjv@8:13; strkjv@13:8,12,14; strkjv@17:8|). {Rejoice} (\chairousin\). Present active indicative of \chair\. {Over them} (\ep' autois\). Locative (or dative) case with \epi\ as in strkjv@10:11|. {Make merry} (\euphrainontai\). Present middle indicative of \euphrain\, old verb (\eu, phrn\, jolly mind), as in strkjv@Luke:15:32; strkjv@Revelation:12:12; strkjv@18:20|. Jubilant jollification over the cessation of the activity of the two prophets. {They shall send gifts to one another} (\dra pempsousin alllois\). Future active of \pemp\ with dative \alllois\. Just as we see it done in strkjv@Esther:9:19,22; strkjv@Nehemiah:8:10,12|. {Tormented} (\ebasanisan\). First aorist active indicative of \basaniz\, for which see strkjv@9:5|. This is the reason (\hoti\) of the fiendish glee of Jew and Gentile, who no longer will have to endure the prophecies (11:3f.|) and dread miracles (11:5f.|) of these two prophets. "Such a sense of relief is perhaps not seldom felt today by bad men when a preacher of righteousness or a signal example of goodness is removed" (Swete).

rwp@Revelation:19:11 @{The heaven opened} (\ton ouranon neigmenon\). Perfect passive participle (triple reduplication) of \anoig\. Accusative case after \eidon\. Songs:Ezekiel (1:1|) begins his prophecy. See also the baptism of Jesus (Matthew:3:16; strkjv@Luke:3:21|, but \schizomenous\ in strkjv@Mark:1:10|). Jesus predicted the opened heavens to Nathanael (John:1:51|). In strkjv@Revelation:4:1| a door is opened in heaven, the sanctuary is opened (11:19; strkjv@15:5|), angels come out of heaven (10:1; strkjv@14:17; strkjv@18:1|), and sounds come from heaven (19:1|). {Behold, a white horse} (\idou hippos leukos\). Nominative case because of \idou\, not \eidon\. Cf. strkjv@6:2| for \hippos leukos\. The emblem of victory in both cases, but the riders are very different. Here it is the Messiah who is the Warrior, as is made plain by "Faithful and True" (\pistos kai althinos\), epithets already applied to Christ (1:5; strkjv@3:7,14|). Cf. also strkjv@22:6|. {In righteousness he doth judge and make war} (\en dikaiosuni krinei kai polemei\). See strkjv@Isaiah:11:3ff|. The Messiah is both Judge and Warrior, but he does both in righteousness (15:3; strkjv@16:5,7; strkjv@19:2|). He passes judgment on the beast (antichrist) and makes war on him. Satan had offered Christ a victory of compromise which was rejected.
