Proceeded (ἐκπορεύονται)

Rev., proceed. The tense is graphically changed to the present.

Lightnings and thunderings and voices

Compare Exo 19:16. Variously interpreted of God's might, His judgment, His power over nature, and His indignation against the wicked.

Lamps (λαμπάδες)

The origin of our lamp, but, properly, a torch; the word for lamp being λύχνος, a hand-lamp filled with oil (Mat 5:15; Luk 8:16; Joh 5:35). See on Mat 25:1. Trench says: “The true Hindoo way of lighting up, is by torches, held by men who feed the flame with oil from a sort of bottle constructed for the purpose.”

Seven Spirits of God

See on Rev 1:4.
