# Revelation 15 General Notes #
|
|
|
|
#### Structure and formatting ####
|
|
|
|
In this chapter, John describes events and pictures that occur in heaven.
|
|
|
|
Some translations set each line of poetry farther to the right than the rest of the text to make it easier to read. The ULB does this with verses 3-4.
|
|
|
|
#### Special concepts in this chapter ####
|
|
|
|
##### "Victorious over the beast" #####
|
|
|
|
These people are spiritually victorious. While most spiritual battles cannot be seen, the Book of Revelation pictures spiritual battles as openly occurring. (See: [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/spirit]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/writing-apocalypticwriting]])
|
|
|
|
##### "The temple having the tent of witness, was open in heaven" #####
|
|
Scripture elsewhere indicates the earthly temple copied God's perfect dwelling place in heaven. Here John seems to refer to God's heavenly dwelling place or temple. (See: [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/heaven]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/writing-apocalypticwriting]])
|
|
|
|
##### Songs #####
|
|
|
|
The Book of Revelation often describes heaven as a place where people sing. They worship God with songs. This illustrates that heaven is a place where God is always worshiped.
