Revelation 19:15




Now out of His mouth goes a sharp sword, that with it He should strike the nations.  And He Himself will rule them with a rod of iron.  He Himself treads the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.


  • ·        The weapons of His warfare:  a sharp sword (MH)

  • ·        The idea isn’t that Jesus holds a sword in his mouth like a buccaneer, or that He is “spitting swords.” This is a dramatic way of referring to the power of His Word. “Christ conquers by the power of His Word” (Johnson). Five times in the Book Revelation, John emphasizes that Jesus’ sword comes out of His mouth.  (DG)

Deuteronomy 10:17  For the LORD your God is God of gods and Lord of lords, the great God, might and awesome, who shows no partiality nor takes a bribe.


Psalm 2:9  You shall break them with a rod of iron; You shall dash them to pieces like a potter’s vessel.
