The Greek word for "rejoice" is "chairō," which conveys a deep, abiding joy that is rooted in spiritual realities rather than temporal circumstances. Historically, this joy is reflective of the Jewish tradition of celebrating significant events with communal feasting and singing, such as weddings. The call to "be glad" further emphasizes an internal state of happiness that is visible externally, suggesting a profound, collective expression of worship and thanksgiving.<p><b>and give Him the glory</b><br />The phrase underscores the act of attributing honor and praise to God. The Greek word "doxa," translated as "glory," refers to the weightiness or worthiness of God, deserving of all honor. In the biblical context, giving glory to God is a central theme, seen throughout Scripture as the ultimate purpose of creation and redemption. Historically, this aligns with the practice of ascribing glory to God in both personal and communal worship settings, recognizing His sovereignty and majesty.<p><b>For the marriage of the Lamb has come</b><br />This phrase introduces the central event of the passage: the marriage of the Lamb. The "Lamb" is a title for Jesus Christ, emphasizing His role as the sacrificial Savior. The Greek word "gamos," meaning "marriage," signifies a covenantal union, drawing from Jewish wedding customs where the marriage was a time of great joy and celebration. Theologically, this marriage represents the consummation of the relationship between Christ and His Church, a theme that runs throughout the New Testament, symbolizing the ultimate fulfillment of God's redemptive plan.<p><b>and His bride has made herself ready</b><br />The "bride" refers to the Church, the collective body of believers. The Greek word "numphe," meaning "bride," is used to depict the Church's purity and devotion to Christ. The phrase "has made herself ready" suggests a process of preparation and sanctification, aligning with the biblical call for believers to live holy lives in anticipation of Christ's return. This preparation is both a divine work of grace and a human response of faithfulness, reflecting the historical and scriptural emphasis on the Church's role in actively participating in God's redemptive work.<div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/pulpit/revelation/19.htm">Pulpit Commentary</a></div><span class="cmt_sub_title">Verse 7.</span> - <span class="cmt_word">Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him;</span> <span class="accented">let us rejoice and be exceeding glad, and let us give the glory unto him.</span> Alford reads <span class="greek">δώσομεν</span>, "we will give," with <span class="hebrew">א</span>, A. P, 36; but the T.R. <span class="greek">δῶμεν</span>, "let us give," which is found in <span class="hebrew">א</span>, B, 1, 7, 38, Vulgate, Cyprian, Primasius, is to be preferred. <span class="cmt_word">For the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready</span>. This is somewhat anticipatory; the full vision of the bride of the Lamb is reserved until <a href="/revelation/21.htm">Revelation 21</a>. But the rejoicing over Babylon and the harlot naturally suggests the allusion to Christ's faithful Church, just as the vision of <a href="/revelation/7.htm">Revelation 7</a>. is suggested by the concluding words of <a href="/revelation/6.htm">Revelation 6</a>. "The marriage of the Lamb" is the figure under which is depicted that complete union between Christ and his faithful Church, which will be consummated at the last day, when Satan has been overcome and sin destroyed. It stands in contrast with the fornication of the harlot - the union of the spiritually unfaithful portion of Christ's Church with the powers of the world (see on Revelation 17:1, 2). Alford remarks, "This figure, of a marriage between the Lord and his people, is too frequent and familiar to need explanation (cf. in the Old Testament, <a href="/isaiah/54-1.htm">Isaiah 54:1-8</a>; <a href="/ezekiel/16-7.htm">Ezekiel 16:7</a>, etc.; <a href="/hosea/2-19.htm">Hosea 2:19</a>, etc.; and in the New Testament, <a href="/matthew/9-15.htm">Matthew 9:15</a>; <a href="/matthew/25-1.htm">Matthew 25:1</a>, etc.; <a href="/john/3-29.htm">John 3:29</a>; <a href="/ephesians/5-25.htm">Ephesians 5:25</a>, etc.)." This symbol of the <span class="accented">wife</span> or <span class="accented">bride</span> indicates the redeemed, who have already in several places been alluded to in this book (<a href="/revelation/7-9.htm">Revelation 7:9</a>; <a href="/revelation/12-1.htm">Revelation 12:1</a>; <a href="/revelation/14-1.htm">Revelation 14:1</a>; <a href="/revelation/17-14.htm">Revelation 17:14</a>, "they that are with him").
