(Show All Books | Show All Chapters)
This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
shall desire - Greek, “eagerly desire”; set their mind on.
shall flee - So B, Vulgate, Syriac, and Coptic read. But A and Aleph read, “fleeth,” namely continually. In Rev 6:16, which is at a later stage of God’s judgments, the ungodly seek annihilation, not from the torment of their suffering, but from fear of the face of the Lamb before whom they have to stand.
