John Trapp on Revelation 1:16

Verſe 16. And he had in his right-hand] See heere the dignity and ſafety of a faithfull Miniſter. Whiles a childe hath his father by the hand, though he walk in the dark, he fears nothing.

A ſharp two-edged ſword] The word, like a ſacrificing ſword, ſlits open, and as it were, unridgeth the conſcience.
