Revelation1:17

I fell at his feet as dead - The appearance of the glory of the Lord had then same effect upon Ezekiel, Eze 1:28 : and the appearance of Gabriel had the same effect on Daniel, Dan 8:17. The terrible splendor of such majesty was more than the apostle could bear, and he fell down deprived of his senses, but was soon enabled to behold the vision by a communication of strength from our Lord's right hand.
