1 This is the revelation that God gave to Yeshua the messiah to show to his slaves to explain what must happen soon. He communicated it by sending it via his messenger to his slave, Yohan 2 who then faithfully passed on everything he saw of God’s message and the testimony of Yeshua the messiah. 3 God will bless anyone who reads or listens to the messages of this prophecy and obeys what it written in it, because the time of these events happening is close.
1:4 The greetings to seven assemblies of believers
4 [ref]This letter is from Yohan to the seven assemblies in Asia Minor:
Grace and peace to you all from the God who is and was and will be, and from the seven spirits who are in front of this throne, 5 [ref]and from Yeshua the messiah, the faithful witness, the first to come back to life, and the ruler of all the leaders of the nations of the world.
Yeshua loves us and he has released us from our sins by his blood, 6 [ref]and made us into a kingdom of priests to God his father, and he is deserving of honour and power throughout the ages. May it be so.
7 [ref]Look, he’s going to come back in the clouds, and everyone will see him—the one who they speared—and all the tribes on the earth will be mourning over him. REWORK OT QUOTES
8 [ref]“I am the A and the Z,” says Yahweh God, the one who is and was and will be—the most powerful one.
1:9 Yohan sees the messiah
9 I, John, am your brother and partner in the suffering that’s typical of those who follow Yeshua. I’ve been exiled to Patmos Island where I endure because I believe God’s message and Yeshua’s testimony and look forward to his kingdom. 10 One Sunday while meditating, God’s spirit gave me a vision, and I heard a voice behind me that seemed as loud as a trumpet blast 11 that said, “Write down what you see here on a scroll and send it to the seven assemblies of believers—to the cities of Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamum, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia, and to Laodicea.”
12 Then I turned to see who was talking to me, and I saw seven golden lamp holders, 13 and standing among them was a man who looked like humanity’s child,[fn] wearing a long robe with a golden sash around His chest.[ref] 14 His hair was gleaming white like wool or snow and his eyes were bright like a fiery flame.[ref] 15 His feet shone like bronze that had been refined in a furnace, and his voice was like the sound of a river of rushing water.[ref] 16 He was holding seven stars in his right hand and a sharp sword was extending from his mouth, and his face was like the sun shining at its brightest. 17 And when I saw him, I quickly lay at his feet, breathless like a dead man, but he placed his right hand on me, and told me, “Don’t be afraid. I am the first and the last.[ref] 18 I lived and died here on the earth, but look, now I’m alive again and will live for all eternity, and I control the keys over death and over hell. 19 So record what you’re seeing now as well as what I’ll show you about current and future events. 20 This is the meaning of the seven stars that you saw in my right hand and of the seven golden lamp holders:[ref] The seven stars represent God’s messengers watching over those seven groups of believers,[ref] and the seven lamp holders represent those groups of believers.
1:13 It’s not certain what was meant here: either ‘a man who looked like humanity’s child’ or ‘a form that looked like a human man’.
