"The Secret of GOD," as revealed by John in the Revelation of Christ, between the chapter notes of chapter 17-3c, with a renewed mind and our victory as foretold.

We should be able to bring this section's look at "The Triumph of the Lamb" to its close with this post.

The Triumph of the Lamb

Revelation 5:5-6, 11-13, "Then one of the Elders said to me, "You need not weep anymore! The Lion has conquered! He who is of the tribe of Judah, the root of David! His victory qualifies Him to open the scroll and to break its seven seals!" ( Idou enikesen Behold! He has conquered! ho leon, ho ek tes phules Jodah, he ritza David, The Lion who is out of the tribe of Judah, the root of David. Rev. 3:7, I hold the key of David as prophesied by Isaiah in 22:22.

See Genesis 49:9-11, "Judah is a lion's whelp; The scepter shall not depart from Judah, nor the ruler's staff from between His feet, until He comes to whom it belongs; And to Him shall be the obedience of the peoples. Binding His foal to the vine and His ass's colt to the choice vine, He washes His garments in wine and His vesture in the blood of grapes.") So I looked to see the Lion, as if fused into one with the Throne and in unison with the four Living Beings, taking center stage in the midst of the Elders, I saw a little Lamb, alive and standing even though it seemed to have been violently butchered in sacrifice! It had seven horns and seven eyes which are the seven Spirits of GOD having been sent out to accomplish His bidding in all the earth. ( You cannot see the Lion until you see the Lamb! Mankind's innocence is the authority of the Throne of the Kingdom of GOD.) Then I saw [1]wave upon wave of innumerable Angelic Shepherd-Messengers [1]engulfing the Throne and the Elders and the Living Beings and I heard singing! It was a mass choir of [2]multi millions! (The word, [1, G2945] kuklo, encircle, is from (G2949) kuma, a swelling wave; Which also connects with the etymological value of the word muriades, from meu, like in waves of the sea. Countless [2] myraids-literally ten thousands times ten thousands and thousands of thousands! The largest number named in Ancient Greek was the myruad, myriad (written MM) or hundred million. In his Sand Reckoner, Archimedes of Syracuse used this quantity as the basis for a numeration system of large powers of ten, which he used to count grains of sand!

According to PIE, the etymology of the word myriad has been variously connected to meu- "damp" in reference to the waves of the sea and to Greek myrmex ("ant") in reference to their swarms. Proto-Indo-European (PIE) is the linguistic reconstruction of the common ancestor of the Indo-European language, the most widely spoken language family in the world.) In their full capacity they exploded in song, proclaiming in unison, "The Lamb's worth is now fully [1]realized! [2]Having been slain in sacrifice, the power, wealth, wisdom, strength, honor, glory, and blessing [3]belong to Him! (The word, [1] labein, to have taken/realized, is from (G2983) lambano, to take, to grasp, to revive; Here in the Aorist Infinitive tense, which indicates prior completion of an action in relationship to a point in time. The word, [3] esphagmenon, is the Perfect Passive Participle of the verb, [2, G4969]sphazo, to slay in sacrifice. It is used to describe a state that exists at the time of the main verb. The basic thought of the perfect tense is that the progress of an action has been completed and the results of the action are continuing on, in full effect. In other words, the progress of the action has reached its culmination and the finished results are now in existence.) At that point the entire universe burst out in praise! I heard every created being in the heavenly realm and upon the earth and under the earth, and upon the oceans and everything within all these spheres, declaring to the One seated upon the Throne and to the Lamb: "The most [1]articulate language, the admiration, the supreme magnificence, the might until the ages of the ages!" (The word, [1, G2129 the same as G2127 eulogeō, a compound of G2095 and G3056  ] eulogia, is from (G2095) eu, good, well done, and (G3056) logos; Thus, polished language; Such language which is artfully adapted to captivate the hearer: fair speaking, fine speeches.) [It is almost unspeakable that of all the themes GOD could choose from to celebrate the central authority of the Throne Room, He chose the Lamb! Our redeemed innocence is the theme of the Throne of heaven, forever!] (The Mirror, with editing.)

This concludes this look into "The Triumph of the LAMB!" Our next visit, the LORD willing, we shall look into "Babylon is Fallen." Until then may our LORD lift us up as He is the great authority of the earth.
