John Trapp on Revelation 5:6

Verſe 6. In the midſt of the Throne] As a fit Mediatour betwixt God and men, even the man Chriſt Jeſus, who gave a ranſome,1 Tim. 2.5, 8. &c.

A Lamb as it had been ſlain] This form of ſpeech is put (ſaith an Interpreter) to ſhew the continuall recent vertue of Chriſts death, eternally effectuall before God, as whereby once for all he hath purchaſed eternall redemption. Some think that he ſtill retains in heaven the prints and ſcars of thoſe wounds that he received on earth in his hands, feet and ſide. His glorified body (ſaith one) is that golden cenſer, which through the wounds that are in it, as thorow chinks or holes, fumeth forth alwaies a pleaſant and ſweet ſavour in the noſtrils of his Father.

Having ſeven hor[illegible: 1 letter]s] Plenty of power. Antichriſt hath but two horns, Chap. 13.11.

And ſeven eyes] No want of wiſdome, no need of a viſible head to the Church, or any other Vicar generall to Chriſt, then the holy Ghoſt, called here, The ſeven spirits of God ſent forth into all the earth.
