15 Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve him day and night in his temple: and he that sitteth on the throne shall dwell among them.



Ver. 15. Therefore are they] Not for the whiteness of their robes, but because they are washed in the meritorious blood of the Lamb.



Before the throne of God] A good man is like a good angel, always standing before the face of God.



Shall dwell among them] Gr. óêçíùóåé , shall pitch his tent, or shall keep the feast, of tabernacles among them, or shall hover and cover over them, as the cloud did over Israel in the wilderness; so that under his shadow they shall safely and sweetly repose themselves.
