O Lord, we worship You from deep within, We praise You that You are God and also man. As man You have become our Redeemer, and as the Spirit You have become our Savior.
And I saw in the midst of the throne and of the four living creatures and in the midst of the elders a Lamb standing as having just been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth.

In ch. 4 is the scene in the heavens, its center being the (throne) of God, on which God sits, ready to execute His universal (administration) for the fulfillment of His eternal purpose. Here in ch. 5 is the same scene in the heavens after Christ (ascended) there. He was recommended to the apostle John as the (Lion) of the tribe of Judah by one of the elders, but He appeared to John as a (Lamb). As the Lion, He is the (Fighter) against the enemy; as the Lamb, He is the (Redeemer) for us. He fought to redeem us, and He won the battle over the enemy and accomplished redemption for us.(See Rev. 5:6 note 1)
