Revelation5:12
12 Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain , to receive power, and riches , and wisdom , and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing .
The Lamb mentioned v. 6. with seven Horns, and seven Eyes, viz. Jesus Christ.
He [illegible: 1 letter]s worthy of those Horns he weareth, Emblems of Power, and Strength given unto him; for all Power was given him in Heaven and Earth. And
of those seven Eyes he hath, i. e. of the Spirit of Wisdom, Isa. 11.2. the Riches of Grace and Wisdom, and
of all the Homage, Glory, Praise, Blessing, and Obedience, which People can give him. I know not whether there be any thing in the Observation made by some, that the number of things here mentioned, of which the Lamb is worthy, answereth the number of the seven Spirits of God, beforementioned.
