    What happens here

    Atlas's own reading, written from this chapter and nothing else, and published only once a person has approved it. Each scene names the verses it covers; the names inside it link to the people and places they name.

    An angel throws open a supper invitation to the birds, while the rider’s sword comes out of his mouth and the armies of heaven follow on white horses.

    Hallelujah, and a rather unusual wedding suppervv. 1–10

    Heaven erupts in a roar of praise: the great prostitute has been judged, her smoke rises forever, and the elders and living creatures fall before the throne with an “Amen, Hallelujah!” A voice from the throne summons everyone who serves or fears God, small and great alike. Then the sound swells again, now like rushing waters and thunder, because the Lamb’s marriage has come and his bride is dressed in bright linen—the righteous acts of the saints. An angel tells the seer to write that those invited to the marriage supper are blessed. The seer promptly falls at the angel’s feet, and the angel, with admirable briskness, says not to do that: he is only a fellow servant, and worship belongs to God.

    The supper announced to the birdsvv. 11–21

    Heaven stands open, revealing a white horse and its rider, Faithful and True, crowned many times over and named The Word of God. The armies of heaven follow on white horses in white linen. The rider judges and wages war; most unusually, the sharp sword for striking down the nations proceeds from his mouth, while his robe and thigh carry the grand title KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS. An angel standing in the sun then calls the birds to the great supper of God—not a banquet of wedding guests, but flesh: kings, commanders, mighty men, horses and riders, slaves and free, small and great. The beast and the false prophet are thrown alive into the fiery lake, the rest fall to the mouth-born sword, and the birds finish the arrangement themselves.

    2. Rev 19:2For His judgments are true and just. He has judged the great prostitute who corrupted the earth with her immorality. He has avenged the blood of His servants that was poured out by her hand.”

    3. Rev 19:3And a second time they called out: “Hallelujah! Her smoke rises forever and ever.”

    4. Rev 19:4And the twenty-four elders and the four living creatures fell down and worshiped God who sits on the throne, saying: “Amen, Hallelujah!”

    5. Rev 19:5Then a voice came from the throne, saying: “Praise our God, all you who serve Him, and those who fear Him, small and great alike!”

    6. Rev 19:6And I heard a sound like the roar of a great multitude, like the rushing of many waters, and like a mighty rumbling of thunder, crying out: “Hallelujah! For the Lord our God the Almighty reigns.

    7. Rev 19:7Let us rejoice and be glad and give Him the glory. For the marriage of the Lamb has come, and His bride has made herself ready.

    8. Rev 19:8She was given clothing of fine linen, bright and pure.” For the fine linen she wears is the righteous acts of the saints.

    10. Rev 19:10So I fell at his feet to worship him. But he told me, “Do not do that! I am a fellow servant with you and your brothers who rely on the testimony of Jesus. Worship God! For the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.”

    11. Rev 19:11Then I saw heaven standing open, and there before me was a white horse. And its rider is called Faithful and True. With righteousness He judges and wages war.

    16. Rev 19:16And He has a name written on His robe and on His thigh: KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS.

    17. Rev 19:17Then I saw an angel standing in the sun, and he cried out in a loud voice to all the birds flying overhead, “Come, gather together for the great supper of God,

    18. Rev 19:18so that you may eat the flesh of kings and commanders and mighty men, of horses and riders, of everyone slave and free, small and great.”

    19. Rev 19:19Then I saw the beast and the kings of the earth with their armies assembled to wage war against the One seated on the horse, and against His army.

    20. Rev 19:20But the beast was captured along with the false prophet, who on its behalf had performed signs deceiving those who had the mark of the beast and worshiped its image. Both the beast and the false prophet were thrown alive into the fiery lake of burning sulfur.

    21. Rev 19:21And the rest were killed with the sword that proceeded from the mouth of the One seated on the horse. And all the birds gorged themselves on their flesh.

    Who else the chapter reaches

    Names written in the English are linked in the text above. These are the ones that are not: an entity the Hebrew or Greek names under a spelling the translation does not use, or one reached only by an assertion about a verse of this chapter.

    Reached by an assertion Atlas extracted from a verse of this chapter rather than by a name written in it — a pronoun, a title, or a participant the sentence carries without naming. This layer is model-read and measured at 88.6–90.3% precision, and it is kept separate from the names above for that reason.
