Revelation11:16

16 And the four and twenty elders which sat before God on their seats, fell upon their faces, and worshipped God ,

I take this to signify no more than the Triumph of the Saints and Angels in Heaven upon this Victory of the Lord over Antichrist, and the promoval of Christ's Kingdom; and certainly if there be Joy in Heaven upon the Conversion of one Sinner, as we are told Luke 15.7. we must imagine a much greater Joy upon the Conversion of Nations and Kingdoms unto Christ.

Marginal references: Chap. 4.4. and 5.8.
