Matthew Poole and continuators on Revelation 10:2

2 And he had in his hand a little book open : And he set his right foot upon the sea, and his left foot on the earth ,

The same Book with that mentioned chap. 5.1. (though some by it understand the Scriptures) There it was represented to Iohn as sealed with seven Seals; here open, to let us know that all the Counsels of God, however sealed as to us, are open to Christ, and that he would open to Iohn what should come to pass in his Church to the end of the World.

To let us know the Dominion he had over the whole World, as well the more unquiet as quieter parts of it.
