Revelation 22:19

The Pulpit Commentary · Joseph S. Exell and contributors · Public Domain

And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book; from the tree of life; i.

e. that mentioned in and in , where also the city is mentioned. Even from the things written in this book seems to be the real meaning of the last clause; not merely the tree and city which are written, etc.

Just as the evils set forth in the Apocalypse are declared in to be the portion of those who add to the book, so those who take from the book are deprived of those blessings which have been constantly referred to in the book.
