Revelation Chapter 4 verse by verse

[LittleLambofJesus]

The word for "trumpet" is only found in Matthew of the Gospels and used twice all the other times it is used in the Epistles and Revelation.

Revelation 4:1 After these I looked and Behold! A door having opened in the heaven, and the sound, the first which I hear, as of trumpet talking with me saying: "Ascend! hence and I shall be showing to thee which-things is binding to be becoming after these.

TexRec) Revelation 4:1 meta tauta eidon kai idou qura hnewgmenh en tw ouranw kai h fwnh h prwth hn hkousa wV salpiggoV laloushV met emou legousa anaba wde kai deixw soi a dei genesqai meta tauta

Rotherham) Matthew 6:2 When, therefore, thou mayest be doing an alms, do not sound a trumpet/salpishV <4537> (5661) before thee, just as, the hypocrites, do in the synagogues and in the streets--that they may be glorified by men,--Verily, I say unto you, they are getting back their reward.

[LittleLambofJesus]

Not sure about this highlighted greek word. Though it appears to signify straight-away, it seems to have the prefix "eu" which means "good" and the primary word used for "God". Interesting

2 And immediately I became in spirit and behold! A throne set/laid in the heaven and upon the throne One-sitting.

[LittleLambofJesus]

A lot of variations in the 3 greek MSS on this verse.

4 And surrounding the throne, thrones, twenty four, and upon the thrones twenty four elders sitting, having been about-cast in garments, white. And upon the heads of them, crowns, golden.

W-H) Revelation 4:4 kai kukloqen tou qronou qronoi eikosi *** tessareV kai epi touV qronouV eikosi tessaraV presbuterouV kaqhmenouV peribeblhmenouV ** imatioiV leukoiV kai epi taV kefalaV autwn stefanouV crusouV

#2170 used 15 times [none in Gospels]. Where the word "Eucharist" appears to comes from.

# 4352 used 60 times but only once in Paul's Epistles. Don't really know if the prefix for this word is "pro" or "pros".

10 shall be falling the twenty [and] four elders before the One-sitting upon the throne and they-shall-be-worshipping/proskunousin <4352> (5719) to-the One-living into the ages of ages. And they shall be casting the crowns of them before the throne saying:
