This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
8. καὶ ἐδόθη αὐτῇ. “It was given to her”—the form is the same as recurs so often throughout the vision, from Rev 6:2 onwards. This being so, it is not likely that this clause still forms part of the proclamation of the voice: it is the Seer’s description of the “making herself ready” which the voice proclaimed.

τὰ δικαιώματα, “righteous acts.” Every good work done by every single saint goes to make up the perfect glory of the Church as it shall be when at last complete. The doctrine of the Communion of Saints is contained in, or follows from, that of the holy Catholic Church.
