While translating Revelation from the Greek texts I saw how this word used for "lamb-kin" looked in the Greek.

This word used for "lambkin" in Revelation is rather unique, as it is used only once outside of Revelation [John 21:15]. It appears to closely resemble the greek word for "disown/denied"

Revelation Chapter 5 verse by verse - Christian Forums
Revelation 5 verse by verse

Revelation 5:6 And I saw in midst of the throne and of the four living-ones and in midst of the elders a lamb-kin standing, as having been slaughtered, having horns, seven, and eyes, seven, whom/M-P are the seven spirits of the GOD having been commissioned into all the land.

John 21:15 When then they dine is saying to the Simon Peter, the Jesus, "Simon of Jonas/John, thou are loving Me more of these?"
He is saying to Him, "Yea Lord! Thou has perceived that I am being-affectionate/fond of Thee."
He is saying to him, `Be thou grazing/boske <1006>! the Lamb-kins/arnia <721> of Me .'

1 John 2:22 Any is the Falsifier if no the one denying/arnou-menoV <720> (5740) that Jesus not is the Christ, this one is the anti-christ, the one denying/arnou-menoV <720> (5740) the Father and the Son.

Wow, in rev 5:6, the description of the Lamb boggles me mind.....that would be quite a sight to see.....

LLOJ, I don't mean to be rude but isn't it time you started giving your opinion on what you've found? I hope I'm not the only one in this forum to say this, but I struggle at times to understand the point you are raising, when you connect words like this (Maybe its just me):blush:

Here's my two cents worth, feel free to correct me if I haven't grasped it. The suffering servant is Christ? Yes. The ones who denied him were the Jews? Yes.
So why is Jesus telling Peter to preach unto the Jews, when we know he was the disciple who preached to the Gentiles in the Roman's house?

Did Jesus tell Peter to feed the Jews when he said feed my sheep? .....Am I on the wrong track or what?:confused:
Where is it ever mentioned Peter was sent to Rome to preach?

[SIZE=+1]According to A.T. Robertson, who taught PhD level Greek for 47 years
Word Pictures in the N.T. - Rev 5:6 -
[/SIZE]

[SIZE=+1]And I saw (kai eidon). Stirred by the words of the elder in Rev_5:5 (idou, behold). “I beheld.”[/SIZE]


[SIZE=+1]A Lamb (arnion). Elsewhere in the N.T. ho amnos is used of Christ (Joh_1:29, Joh_1:36; Act_8:32; 1Pe_1:19 like Isa_53:7), but in the Apocalypse to arnion occurs for the Crucified Christ 29 times in twelve chapters.[/SIZE]
Ahhh. Never thought of it that way. Thanks
