This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Rev_2:18. ὁ ὑιὸς τοῦ θεοῦ . The Lord, who in Rev_1:13 appears like a son of man, is, as the entire description (Rev_1:13 sqq.) shows, the Son of God, although he does not there receive that precise name. But in the present epistle he expressly designates himself as such, because, especially in Rev_2:27, this glory of his is asserted in accordance with Psalms 2. The two other designations, derived from Rev_1:14-15, have their significance in the fact that the Lord with his eyes of flame penetrates[1216] all, and with his feet like brass treads down every thing impure and malevolent.[1217]
[1216] Cf. Rev_2:23.
[1217] Cf. Rev_2:27.
