Revelation 1:13 Revelation 1:13 And in the midst of the seven candlesticks one like unto the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle. The LORD Jesus Christ (who is the Mediator) is here personally described after his ascension, as he was before his resurrection. \ Such a discovery of Christ Stephen had. Acts 7:55-56 He was real, this mystical, as appears by metaphorical description of Christ here following. "Clothed with a Garment down to the Foot," etc. Long garments were worn among the Jews by two sorts of persons, and both for distinction from others, and for dignity above others; namely, kings and priests. \ "And girt about the Paps with a Golden Girdle" The girdle that John saw Jesus girt about the breasts with, signifies his divine power, strength, and kingly authority. \ I will strengthen him with thy girdle, I will commit the government into his hands \ Jesus Christ is present in and with his churches of saints at all times. \ Where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them: That is, they have his spiritual presence and power. \ And lo, I am with you always, pasav tav hmerav, daily, all days, and every day, even unto the end of the world. Amen.
