Matthew Poole and continuators on Revelation 2:5

5 Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen , and repent , and do thy first works ; or else I will come unto thee quickly , and will remove thy candlestick out of his place , except thou repent.

That is, in what degree thy Love was formerly, and compare it with what it is now.

Repentance in Man, signifieth both the change of the Heart, and of the Actions.

Recover thy former warmth of Love, and Zeal for good Works.

If thou dost not, I that know th[illegible: 1 letter]e, and walk in the midst of thee, will shew my self an Enemy to thee,

and u[illegible: 1 letter]church thee, and say unto thee, Loammi, you are not my People. Which threatning is long since made good; for where is now the famous Church of Ephesus?
