Overview & Insights
"Worthy is the Lamb that was slaughtered to receive power and wealth and wisdom and might and honor and glory and blessing!" (Revelation 5:12)
John hears an innumerable choir of angels surrounding the throne, joined by every creature in heaven, on earth, and under the earth, ascribing blessing and honor to the Lamb who was slain. The four living creatures answer with Amen as the elders fall down in worship.
